1) Natural shape and proportion

• The “after” should look like the same person, just refreshed.

• Features should complement the rest of the face, not compete with it.

2) Smooth transitions

• No sharp steps where filler starts or stops.

• Cheek to under-eye and lip border to skin should blend seamlessly.

3) Balanced symmetry

• Left and right sides should be sisters, not twins. Small asymmetries are normal.

• Smile lines and lip corners should sit at similar heights.

4) Results that hold up in motion

• If video is available, check talking and smiling.

• Lips should articulate normally. Cheeks should not look stiff.

5) Honest photography

• Same lighting, angle, distance, and expression in both images.

• Minimal makeup and no filters. Hair should not cover treated areas.

• A timestamp or stated interval helps verify settling time.
