Lip Augmentation: Q&A
Ask a Question
Best Lip Filler Options?
Hello! I have medium sized lips and would like them to be a little fuller. I am a fan of Adriana Lima's lips if that helps for a visual of what I want. I also do not want extremely long lasting results because I have never had this done before so I would opt for the most temporary option. What do you recommend? Also, where should I get this done (a medspa, dermatologist office, plastic surgeon's office, etc)? What should I look for when considering where to go to get this procedure done?

Juvederm or Restylane as Lip Filler Options
Fuller lips can certainly be achieved with Restylane or Juvederm. Both are made of hyaluronic acid. This allows them to add volume to the lips as well as hydration since hyaluronic acid can hold numerous water molecules.
However, there is a lot of skill that is involved with lip augmentation procedures. Although many people want their upper lip to be fuller, it is important not to add too much of the filler. Overall, symmetry and natural proportions need to be maintained.
So it is...

Best Lip Filler Options
Restylane has received FDA approval for lip augmentation. However, Juvederm also can be used to provide an excellent result. The key is to choose an experienced and expert physician injector who has a sense of aesthetics that is compatible with your own.

Lip Enhancement
Restylane and Juvederm injections take place in our medical office and require just a few minutes to perform. The aesthetic improvement is immediate, and in general we will attempt to ever so slightly overfill the lips and overcorrect lines and folds, so that the desired effect remains once the mild initial swelling subsides (in about 24 hours).

Most injections can be performed with little or no pain by administration of local...

Hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane or Juvederm only option for lip augmentation
You should seek out an experienced dermatologist or plastic surgeon using only hyaluronic acid fillers as these are 100% reversible with hyaluronidase in case there is a buyer's regret. Even though Restylane is the only filler in 2012 that is officially approved by FDA for lip augmentation, both Restylane and Juvederm do fine jobs in the hands of artistically minded physician injector.

Best filler for lips?
There is no 'best' and when people claim one is softer than the other, I cannot imagine what kind of objective study they base their claims on. If you want something temporary, simply have saline injected and you can get a good idea of what you will look like. If you want something longer acting, any dermal filler will produce that result BUT some fillers have more potential side effects but eventually, this will be absorbed and you're back to square one. Fat grafting is a...

Best option for lip augmentation
Juvederm Ultra is very soft, and will move naturally with your lips. Restylane and Belotero can also work well, but are not as soft as Juvederm.
You will get the safest, most reliable treatments with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon or dermatologist. To maximize your chance of a satsifying result ask for before & afters when you consult with your doctor, and be clear about your goals.

Lip Augmentation
Dear Meowmeow11,
Juvederm is a very nice lip plumper that will continue to plump for 1-2 weeks after injection
I would recommend a qualified physician to do the injections, looking at before and after pictures will help you make your decision
The results will last about 6 months and satisfaction rates are very high
Enjoy your new lips!
Best,

Good Lip Filler Options
A board-certified dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon experienced in injectable fillers and cosmetic procedures should be who you see for lip augmentation (filling). Ask to see before and after photos if you haven't already found them on the doctor's website. If you want something temporary, the hyaluronic acid fillers are good options.

Injectable filler for lips
I think you are best to go to medical doctor for injections and someone with an aesthetic background and eye. AS for the filler, it really depends upon what your are looking for. The hyaluronic acids are good options.

Injectable Lip Filler Options For Increased Lip Fullness
Any of the hyaluronic-acid based fillers are good of lips, such as Restylane, Juvederm or Belotero. They will last around 6 months and one syringe us more than enough for a moderate size increase. Go to reputable physician injector that is preferably done in their office.
