What is a Lip Augmentation?


Posted on August 10, 2016 under Lip Augmentation

Many people are joining the scores of celebrities who want plump, gorgeous lips. Just like other areas of the face and body, the aging process can affect our lips. Lips may appear thinner over time as they lose volume as well as developing small lines and wrinkles. Whether genetics or age have given you thin lips, you can increase their volume at our Fayetteville practice.

Lip Augmentation Options

Here are just a few of the options available to enhance the appearance of your lips: injectable tissue fillers, such as Restylane®, JUVÉDERM® Injectable Gel, collagen, or various implants. As you discuss your needs with Dr. Taylor, you’ll find the expertise needed to find the right solution for you. For example here at Fayetteville Cosmetic Surgery we have the capability to remove fatty tissue from one area of the body and inject it directly into the lips to restore volume. Fat grafting may be a great option because fat is a natural substance which doesn’t cause allergic reaction, depending on the technique the results may be permanent or semi-permanent.
