What is the Best Treatment for Getting Larger Looking Lips?

Best treatments for larger looking beautiful lips depends on how long you want them.
Temp fillers such as restylane or juvederm which lasts about 4-6 months for $550/syringe are great to start with but when you want permanent beautiful lips then you get the implants under local anesthesia for $1500-2000 per implant and enjoy them. You can always supplement your implants with fillers as well if need be. Sincerely,

Fort Lauderdale Lip Augmentation
Well, lips are truly my favorite providing atrophic upper lips that have rolled into the bottom lip a soft natural presence that doesn't distort the eye. Lips are a work of art & should be treated as such. Start low & come back for weekly visits til we establish the best look for you.

Larger looking lips
By far the best treatment for larger, fuller natural looking lips is a proceedure I invented and perfected over 20 years ago. I do dermal-fat grafts from the lower abdomen supra-public area into the lips. The grafts give permanent fullness and totally natural results. It is your own tissue and presents no problem of rejection. Absorption is about 20 % so the grafts are placed in that much larger. The proceedure is done under local anesthesia and takes 45 minutes. If there is a draw back to...

Lip Augmentation Options
The following options for lip augmentation include:
lip injection (hyaluronic acid, Restylane, Juvederm)
lip implant
lip plastic surgery
Injection are typically temporary, lasting 4-6 months. Injections with fat may be longer lasting. Some lip implants are made of silicone and provide permanent results. Plastic surgery on the lips also provide long-lasting results, but may be the most invasive.
There is no best option. The injections are the least initial...

Best fillers for lip enhancement
There are several filler agents that are useful and safe, and give natural looking results. Most commonly, restylane and juvederm are great fillers as they are composed of hyaluronic acid which means they are very versatile and can be reversed if you did not like the look. Juvederm in particular is soft which is my preferred option for the lips for a more natural look and feel.

What is the best treatment for getting alrger lips?
I have used many techniques for lip augmentation for over 20 years and I prefer using alloderm implants to create fuller, natural looking lips. Unlike other implants, Alloderm is supple enough to be placed directly under the red portion of the lip and above the lip muscle.

Larger Lips and Lip Augmentation
There are a number of options for making lips larger or lip augmentation. They include injectable fillers such as Hyaluronic acid (Restylane, Juvederm, etc.), fat injections, and silicone implants. Of these options the Hyaluronic acid Fillers are the easiest and safest to preform (the injection can be reversed with an injection of another chemical - Hyaluronidase - which will dissolve the filler). Although the filler will gradually resorb over time and need to be repeated,...

Lip enlargement
Usually the best option for lip augmentation is using filler materials like hyaluronic acid. Commonly juvederm or perlane are the best choices. Fat injeciton is unpredictable.

The Best Treatment for Lips
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. Lifting the corners of the mouth gives a hint of a smile and reduces the “sad or angry look” when they are down turned. Please remember,...

Larger looking lips
The hyaluronic acid fillers including Restylane and Juvederm are the most appropriate fillers for the lips. Although they are not permanent solutions, they are quite safe. The effects are also reversible in the event you dislike the results or the lips look uneven after administration of the filler.

Do the juvederm first, if you like the look then consider fat transfer, still natural and more permanent

Hyaluronic acid based fillers like Juvéderm® and Restylane® are best for lips
Hyaluronic acid [HA] based fillers like Juvéderm® and Restylane® are best for lips.
HA is soft, moldable and kissable -- and reversible with hyaluronidase if there is a problem or a complication of treatment.
I prefer Juvéderm Ultra XC® because in my experience Juvéderm® is the most comfortable and longest lasting of the HA fillers, and causes less post treatment swelling than Restylane®.
Fillers like Radiesse®, Sculptra® or...
