Project Description
Lip Augmentation or Lip Enhancement
Lovely lips is one of the most important facial features. However, sometimes to achieve the fullness and youthfulness of the lips, lip augmentation is required. Injection of special tissue fillers or soft lip implants can be used to augment lips or correct their form.
One of the most effective to improve your appearance is to enhance the shape and fullness of the lips. Lip Enhancement, or lip augmentation, is an office-based procedure that enhances the appearance of the upper and lower lips. Materials most commonly used for these procedures are Restylane and Juvederm, both hyaluronic acid fillers. Patients who seek lip enhancement have a desire for fuller lips with better definition. Lip enhancement can also help to address unwanted vertical lines and wrinkles around the mouth, also known as smoker’s lines. Lip enhancement is also effective to restore volume in excessively thin lips resulting from aging.
Benefits of Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
Once injected the gel in the filler supports and shapes the tissues of the lips.
The benefits of using hyaluronic acid fillers include:
Control over lip volume. The amount of substance injected can be controlled, so the doctor has better control over how much lip volume is created.
Gradual pace of treatment. The injections can be given gradually during different appointments until the desired results are achieved.
Bumps dissolve easily. Any lumps and bumps created by movement of the lips can be dissolved easily.
Less bruising. There may be less bruising and swelling compared to other dermal fillers.
Reasonably lasting results. The results are reasonably long-lasting, but not permanent.
