Spring has sprung. It is time for a well-known spring cleaning. As well as your flat, you also deserve a makeover.

Lip Threading

Various alternatives to traditional treatments have emerged. That is also the case with lip fillers. Lip Threading is a brand new way to make your lips look plump. It is a new procedure where threads, composed of poly-L-lactic acid, or PLLA, a biocompatible synthetic substance, are placed into the lip to stimulate collagen production. Both the shape and the size of the lip are changed. This is different from traditional lip fillers, where hyaluronic acid is injected. Unfortunately, lip threading is said to be more uncomfortable.

So, why do women like it? Well, the trend of looking as if you are not wearing much or any makeup is continuing in 2019 and threaded lips look more natural than lips with fillers. Nothing fake is added here, it is just an improvement to your lips. 

Microblading

As it is said above, the “no makeup-makeup” trend dominates in 2019. When it comes to permanent makeup trends, microblading is more popular than ever. It will give your eyebrows flawless look and shape. In addition, your brows won’t come off after swimming or sweating. Your brows will look perfect even at the beach!

Microblading is a treatment that imitates hair strokes, thus making your brows look feathery and full. You no longer have to waste time on filling those gaps with a brow pencil or mascara and make your brows visible and thick. This procedure is neither complicated nor painful. However, be careful when you choose your microblading artist. Make sure your artist has completed reputable microblading training and gained a certificate and a license. Also, you want someone who is experienced and has a lot of recommendation.

Mesotherapy

Mesotherapy has been here for quite some time. It seems like women will not give it up in 2019. Why would they? This procedure that involves the injection of a mixture of vitamins, enzymes, hormones and plant extracts has given great results in skin rejuvenating. It will iron your face, making it soft and clean.

Mesotherapy can be used for other body parts as well. Also, a no-needle mesotherapy is becoming more popular, thus making this procedure more approachable to those who are afraid of needles.

Non-surgical Nose Job

Non-surgical operations are more and more popular. A nose job done without an actual surgery is a new trend. It is also known as liquid rhinoplasty and includes the injection of hyaluronic acid. The nose is shaped to look more attractive and the small imperfections are hidden. It lasts one to two years, after which a touchup is required. However, it is easily reversed if you are not satisfied with the results. Another perk is that it is much faster and less painful than the traditional nose job.

Even though it does not include an actual surgery, a liquid rhinoplasty carries some risks. Therefore, you need to be cautious and choose a licensed esthetician do perform the procedure. Otherwise, some complications might come up.

Body Contouring

You have to start preparing your beach body on time. Hitting the gym or going for a run will definitely give the best results. Also, cut down on sweets and watch what you eat. However, cellulite is very persistent and it takes a lot to get rid of it. It seems like nothing eliminates it completely. Fortunately, there are treatments to reduce the amount of it.

Body contouring is also a non-surgical procedure. There are different ways of fat reduction. Basically, fat cells are targeted and destroyed and the certain body part is reshaped. It can be done in different ways such as laser energy, controlled heating and ultrasound technology, injectable deoxycholic acid or freezing temperatures to target and destroy fat cells. This is an excellent treatment that will help you get an attractive bikini body.
