David Levens answers: How to avoid Lisa Rinna lips?

I don't want Lisa Rinna looking lips! What lip injection method/technique gives real natural appearing lips (that are full)??

One of the tell tale signs of a "bad" result (my opinion) is when after augmentation, there is unnatural disproportion between the upper and lower lips (often an over-augmented upper lip). The "norm" is for the upper lip to be less full than the lower lip - according to the "golden proportion" the lower lip should be about 60% fuller than the upper lip (1.6:1, the Fibonacci Sequence).

When augmenting the lips it is important to pay attention to the baseline balance and proportionally enhance both the lower and upper lip.
