If you have ever envied a celebrity’s luscious pout, you are not alone.
With the advances made in natural-looking lip augmentation, even more individuals are enjoying fuller, more enticing lips.
Lip augmentation can improve your appearance and give you the lips you desire.
The lips are affected early on by aging. Individuals who originally had naturally plump and youthful lips may start to notice that the lips begin to thin, and lose their volume. Others never have plump lips to begin with and would like a fuller and more defined lip line.
Dermal Fillers
For an instant enhancement of the lips, dermal fillers are one of the most popular lip augmentation options on the market. One of the major advantages of dermal fillers is that they are considered safe and can be performed at your lunch break. Most of the dermal fillers used for lip injections contain hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a naturally-occurring substance, and is the primary ingredient of name-brand dermal fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Versa.
When you go in for a consultation, Dr Shamouelian will explain the differences among the various types of fillers to figure out which one is best for you. One of the most popular fillers is Juvederm, as it gives lips a nice, round, natural shape. Fillers are highly recommended for those getting lip augmentation for the first time, as they can be reversed if the patient doesn’t like the outcome. Lip fillers typically last a few months before they need to be touched up with more.
Fat Transfer
Another option for lip augmentation is a fat transfer. It is a semi-permanent solution to correcting thin lips. Fat transfer is also considered to be a very safe cosmetic procedure, as it uses the patient’s own fat to create volume. This also creates a nice natural look. The one downside of a fat transfer, however, is that the results are less predictable than they are for lip augmentation with dermal fillers. Repeat transfers might be necessary to achieve the desired result.
All of the options for lip augmentation can be a good choice, but you’ll have to consult with an expert first to determine which one is best for you.
