Hyaluronic acid fillers for lips - your best option
Hyaluronic acid fillers such as restylane and juvederm are your best options because they are essentially natural, safe, and have many years of experience and scientific data to back up their results and safety. Most importantly for safety, it is the injector that is important as they are most understanding of anatomy, vasculature, nerves etc., so as to minimize side effects and be able to handle any problems (however rare).

Hyaluronic acid for lip enhancement
Hyaluronic acid products like Juvederm or Restylane are the best options for lip enhancement. They are used to replace lost volume, define the vermilion borders and create a more youthful curl, elevate and lift the corners of the mouth, and correct vertical wrinkle lines. They can restore the natural contour of the upper and lower lip and enhance the Cupid’s bow area.

Is Hyaluronic Acid Safe for Lip Injections?
Yes, either Restylane or Juvederm is safe and effective for temporary lip augmentation. If your lips are quite thin or you want a longer lasting result, I use Alloderm Lip Implants that last about 7 years.

Restylane and Juvederm for lip injections
Hyaluronic Acid (Restylane or Juvederm) is an excellent choice for lip enhancement. The products are a soft gel that give very natural and safe results. These treatments have an added level of safety in that they can be dissolved if, for some reason, you do not like all (or part) of the treatment. However, remember that the most important step in getting a good result is not picking a product, but selecting a great cosmetic doctor who has experience in doing these...
