If you were born with thin lips, or if aging has caused your lips to flatten, now you can do something about it.
There are several lip augmentation
procedures available today to enhance the size and shape of your lips.
Most commonly used are "tissue fillers" such as Restylane, Juvederm, or
micro-droplet silicone oil. These tissue fillers give gradual plumping
which can be tailored based upon the individual patient's desires.
Furthermore, the results look and feel natural. Although implantable
materials can be surgically used to augment the lips, Dr. Emilio Justo
prefers the beauty, ease, and safety of tissue fillers for the lips.
Lip augmentation is usually performed
under topical anesthesia with an anesthetic cream applied. In more
sensitive or anxious patients, a dental block (injection) can be used for
deeper numbing effect. Recovery takes only a few days to a week, at which
time the lips usually look and feel marvelous.
Nothing is quite as friendly as a beautiful smile.
Has the beauty of your smile been diminished, or has the graceful curve of your
upper lip began to flatten out? If so, consider lip augmentation to bring back
those luscious lips!
