Lip augmentation is one of the fastest growing cosmetic procedures. If you are considering lip enhancement, you have two options β silicone implants and injectable fillers. Lip augmentation via injectable fillers is quickly becoming the preferred choice, and here is what you can expect from the treatment.
What Is Lip Augmentation with Injectable Fillers?
Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that adds volume to the lips. The traditional technique for lip enhancement is via silicone implants, but these devices have limitations, such as an unnatural feel to the lips and little to no customization due to the standardized sizing of the implants.
How Lip Augmentation via Injectable Fillers Works
The injectable fillers that are used for this treatment are the same or similar to those used for reducing lines and wrinkles on your face. The products contain ingredients, such as hyaluronic acid, that work to add volume in the skin. When these injectable fillers are used for lip enhancement, you not only have fuller lips, but the treatment also helps with:
Injectable fillers can be customized to your needs more precisely than silicone implants.
Procedure for Lip Augmentation via Injectable Fillers
This is a minimally-invasive procedure that requires no incisions or downtime, and you will not have scars from the treatment. Lip enhancement with dermal fillers takes less than one hour.
We may choose one or more dermal fillers to achieve the look that you want from your lip augmentation. Each filler is injected into the lips at several sites to create a consistent appearance. The results may last several months or longer, depending on the specific dermal fillers that are used. We recommend that you schedule follow-up treatments to maintain the look of your lip augmentation. We will discuss the scheduling of these appointments during your consultation.

The only part of your face that shows more emotion than your mouth is your eyes. This means that your lips are a vital part of letting other people know how you feel. Your lips play a major role in affecting the way that other people treat you or react to you. Sadly, if you have thin lips, either because of genetics or as a result of volume loss, your entire face might take on a harsh or upset appearance. But you could add volume with lip fillers.
This added volume will give your face a softer appearance. You will go from people constantly thinking that you are upset or angry to people seeing you as a happier, kinder person. This is just one of the reasons why people have opted to use lip injections to add volume to their lips.
Lip fillers are designed to make your lips look full and to change their shape. Lip injections can be done on your upper lip, your lower lip, or both lips. There are a number of options when it comes to the materials used to augment your lips. Some of the more common options include dermal fillers based on hyaluronic acid as well as fillers that use fat from your own body to give you a natural-looking augmentation.
One benefit of lip fillers is that the results are seen immediately. You will come into the office, the lip injections will be applied, and you will walk out with lips that look full and youthful. A nice thing about lip injections is that you as the patient have complete control over how much your lips are augmented. You can control how much fuller you want your lips to be and what adjustments you want to the shape of your lips.
There are a number of reasons why people turn to lip fillers. Some people just naturally have thinner lips. Because of this, their face has an overly harsh appearance. Other people have lost lip volume with age. They turn to lip fillers to restore the thickness of their lips.
Lip injections are relatively simple treatments. However, it only takes a minor alteration in the shape and size of your lips to produce phenomenal results. Adding volume to your lips will make you look softer, it will make you look younger, it will increase your ability to express a wide range of emotions, and it will make you look like a better version of yourself.
