What is Lip Enhancement?
Voluptuous lips are extremely desirable. There is, however, a fine line between the perfect result and an obviously augmented lip. I recommend to my patients the following approach to lip enhancement.
First “try out” the shape and size you desire by using a filler to augment your lips. The filler is reabsorbed over a period of 6 months to 2 years depending on the product used. I tend to “under-correct” and rather bring a patient back for additional minor adjustments.
Once a desirable result is obtained, I document the result with photographs and then later consider a permanent lip augmentation with the use of microfat or dermofat grafts.
