Lip enhancement is becoming more common as recent studies of facial aging have demonstrated a noticeable thinning of the lips with age. The upper lip in particular thins and tends to lengthen with aging. There are two major methods of Lip Enhancement or Augmentation available.

The first involves filler materials such as collagen, restylane, artecol, riverderm etc. These methods are all temporary, each lasts for a different length of time and all have different risks. In general though all are relatively instantaneous in their results have little or no down time and have lower one- time costs than surgery.

The second method for lip enhancement is surgery. The most effective surgical technique for augmentation is fat grafting. The major advantage to fat grafting is that the material used to augment your lip is your own natural fat. The fat is suctioned out of an area of excess, processed to maximize survival and re-injected into the lips. The resulting fat usually undergoes a small degree of shrinkage but usually leaves a permanently fuller lip which is natural and soft and gives great results for lip enhancement.
