Plumper, fuller lips can be achieved in several ways: lip injections like Restylane® and Juvéderm® lip fillers, or through silicone lip injections, fat lip transfer, lip implants or a lip lift.
Lip Injections
Lip injections are ideal if you’re not quite set on a permanent procedure, but want to see results for upwards of 12 months. The poutiness that lip fillers impart is significant. These injectibles are a perfect lip plumping technique to gain fuller lips temporarily, usually under a year.
Lip Fat Transfer
In lip fat transfer we take fat from another area of your body, such as the hips, thighs or abdomen, and inject it strategically into your lips. Lip fat transfer treatment can last approximately four or five years, is ideal if you are wary of synthetic lip injections, or suffer from reactions to Botox™ or other fillers.
Lip Lift Surgery
Lip lift surgery is a lip enhancement surgical procedure that permanently modifies the cosmetic appearance of the lips by reshaping them to increase the prominence of the vermilion border and to enhance the facial area above the lips into a more aesthetically pleasing shape.
Treatment time for lip lift can range from a half hour to over an hour. Dr. Robert Zubowski will administer a local anesthetic to ensure your comfort during any lip lift procedure, and you can typically resume normal activities right away. However, you may need a bit more time to recover after a lip procedure involving lip implants.
