How Common is Lip Augmentation in Men?

What gender specific techniques or guidelines work best for men?

A: Lip augmentation in men

I think a lot of middle aged and older men would benefit from a subtle lip augmentation.  The HA fillers are perfect for this because if the patient did not like the look, it could easily be reversed with hyaluronidase.  Men are subjected to much less physical scrutiny than women in our society and I think that is the main reason why most cosmetic surgery patients are women.

How Does Lip Filler Vary from Person to Person?

What characteristics make lip filler a good choice for someone? If someone is a good candidate for lip filler, then how do they determine what kind to use? Is longevity of the filler one of the major factors for choosing the right filler?

A: Lip fillers vary from person to person.

After 20 years in practice, I can tell you that every procedure or treatment I do varies from person to person, even identical twins!  Your surgeon should have some advice based on his/her experience.  Sometimes it take a couple of fillers to determine which is best for any given patient.

Would I Have to Stop my Allergy Medication 2 Weeks Before Lip Augmentation Surgery?

Do I avoid certain medications so that my lips would heal better or is it primarily because of complications with surgery? Which vitamins or medications will effect healing?

A: medications

Your surgeon should provide you a list of medications to avoid prior to your surgery. Also, make sure you disclose all of your current medications and vitamins/supplements.

Best of luck to you!
