I heard of a procedure that can be done with ones own fat, then it is cleaned and injected in the desired area, I am interested in getting my lips augmented and was wondering if this procedure can be done with injecting the fat in the lips? Also, what would be the cost of it?
Answer: Fat grafting for the lips
Fat transfer like you describe is possible and a great treatment for the face. It doesn't have a very good longetivity in the lips, though. Filler injection in the office is a better option for the lips.

I think placing fat in the lips is a great way to achieve the results you want. Of course as with any procedure you want to be sure and find a surgeon who has a lot of experience doing it because Fat survival in the lips can very. It can last a very long time unlike the typical 5-8 months with fillers.

Answer: Fat Injections for Lip Augmentation - a good choice for many
I have used fat injections to the lips for 25 years and find that it results in soft and natural lip .augmentation. The problem is that although you will always have some improvement with each procedure the amount that survives is highly variable and I believe dependent on the experience of the surgeon and other technical factors. Probably, that is why there are some negative posts. I have not experienced lumps as much as the variability of take. I always tell my patients to expect more than one lipoinjection procedure to get to their goal which is a soft and natural lip augmentation that is long lasting if not permanent.. It will look natural in an experienced surgeon's hands.

Answer: Fat injections in the lips does work but is not used that much anymore.
Fat injections are very unpredictable and can last anywhere from 3-12 months but has the disadvantage of being lumpy or irregular once it settles down and often needs to be redone in 3-6 months at a cost of roughly $1500-2500 per session. Some turn out nice and natural looking though. Sincerely,

Answer: Larger lips with fat injections.
I have used fat injections to the lips for 35 years. Done properly it is an excellent filler and lasts forever. The celebs like Meg Ryan had too much filler injected. It looks natural as long as the surgeon is experienced.
