Lip implants with Surgisil
Lip implanting has a sordid past. Over the years there have been many brands and styles. It wasn't until I started using Surgisil Implants that I embraced the procedure. These implants are made of silastic and have a "gummy bear" feel. The procedure itself takes only 20 minutes and you can drive yourself home. Surgisil lip implants are quite easy to remove and return your lip to its pre-surgical shape/size should you change your mind.

Permalip Impants are safe and predictable
If you want to avoid repetitive lip injections that can be painful and expensive, Permalip implants are a safe and predictable alternative. Whether you have naturally thin lips or have lost volume in your lips due to the aging process, these implants provide a quick, customizable (and reversible!) way to create fuller, plumper lips and reduce fine wrinkles around the mouth.

There are several options for lip augmentation, but only two for permanent lip augmentation: autologous fat or implants.
There are no permanent synthetic fillers available for use in the lips. Some physicians have used silicone injections into the lips with good results, but as mentioned, if the results are not as desired it is impossible to correct.
Autologous fat, or fat from the belly or thighs, can be harvested and injected into the lips. It may take 2 or 3 injections to get things just...

Permanent lip augmentations
The surgical lip lift and silicone lip implants both give permanent results and these are very safe and effective. Fat and fillers can look great and I do them all the time but they are temporary. When a pateint is tired of coming in every 6 months for lip augmenation I will offfer them on of the permanent options and these people are very happy with the results.

There are many different materials used for permanent lip augmentation. My preference is your own fat because it feels and looks natural when properly performed.
Fat transfer initially looks over-corrected for a few weeks. Approximately 50-60% of the fat transferred "takes". What is present after 6 months is permanent, alive fat. Additional touch ups can be performed if necessary.
With any lip augmentation expect your lips to be bruised for 5-7 days, and swollen for a few weeks...

How To Get Permanent Plumped Lips
PermaLip implants are composed of silicone, a material that mimics the natural tissue of the lips. It is soft enough to create a realistic texture, yet semi-solid to ensure the lips retain their shape. PermaLip is not only effective; it has also proven safe through extensive testing. Available in an array of lengths and widths to best suit each patient, PermaLip is ideal for interested candidates of all ages. PermaLip is easily removed if the patient opts to receive a smaller or larger...

Fat injections to lips for permanent lip plumping.
Fat grafting to your lips is the best solution if you are looking for a permanent result with the same look as Radiesse. I do not recommend lip implants because thet feel unnatural and patients are happier with fat grafting.

Beware of implants for permanent lip augmentation
The appeal of permanent implants for lip augmentation is that they are permanent. But realize that the problems they can cause can be permanent too. The advantage of injectable fillers like Juvederm or Restylane is that although they last several months to a year, they are NOT permanent. When they go away, they don't leave any damage behind.
Permanent implants on the other hand can get infected, break, or extrude, all of which can cause permanent scar tissue and disfigurement. Permanent...
