Full, nicely defined lips are a coveted aesthetic ideal for many women. Unfortunately, many people have naturally thin lips. And many older women begin to notice that the aging process is not kind to their lips. One common condition is lips that have lost a significant amount of volume. This unwelcome change often leaves women feeling less attractive.
Fortunately, lips can regain much of their former volume by using fat transfer or fillers. Enhancing the appearance of the lips can transform the look of the entire face, largely due to the lips being a central part of the facial structure. Having a lip augmentation procedure performed is one of the most significant steps you can take to enhance the appearance of your entire face. The downtime is normally quite short, making the process very convenient for most women.
Ideal Candidates
As long as you are an adult in overall good health, you should make a good candidate for a lip augmentation procedure. If you have lips that are naturally thin and have reasonable expectations regarding the procedure’s outcome, you should experience suitable results.
Using Fillers for Lip Augmentation
Using fillers that are injected into the lips is a very common procedure for lip augmentation. There are a variety of materials suitable for this treatment, based upon your goals. Fillers also offer noticeable results that are immediate.
Fat Transfer for Lip Augmentation
If you desire fuller, plumper lips but do not want to inject foreign substances into your body, fat transfer lip injections may be right for you. This treatment involves removing fat from your own body and transferring it into your lips.
One benefit to this method is that there is very little chance of an allergic reaction. You are left with soft, natural-looking results that can last for a long time.
To begin, we first remove fat from a location on your body where there is excess. We then purify the fat to prepare it for injection. Finally, we skillfully inject the fat into your lips. A fat transfer lip augmentation procedure is optimal for those wishing to reduce fat in one area while plumping their lips at the same time.
