Fuller Lip

I Have Lips Like Jamie Lee Curtis but Want a Little Bit Fuller Lip. What Would Be the Best Procedure for This?

I have performed Lip Augmentation for well over 22 years using fillers and lip implants. Understanding and following the proper aesthetics of facial (and lip) beauty is essential for creating full, naturally attractive lips. First look at some fashion and beauty magazines at some lips that you find attractive. Then find an MD that understands how to create the proper aesthetic lip proportion between the upper and lower lip. Easiest is to try a filler... more

Best procedure for fuller lips

Hyaluronic acid fillers like Juvederm or Restylane are the best options for creating fuller lips. 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. They have several advantages over permanent lip implants. One obvious advantage is that surgery is not required.... more

Lip fillers

At least start with lip fillers like Juvederm or Restylane done by a good physician injector. Following the natural line of your lips (usually the bottom lip is 2/3 and top lip is 1/3) will give you nice, fuller lips but the same shape as you already have.

Lip fillers are always good to test the results before going to the permanent implants.

A little lip filler such as restylane or juvederm($550/syr) 1st helps you decide what size you want for the lip implant ($1500-2000) which you will probably get sooner or later. Fat injections have been very unpredictable. Sincerely, David Hansen,MD

Fat grafting for thin lips.

I have used fat grafting for 35 years and have had no infections or reactions since it is your own fat. To get the best permanent results the lips are overfilled which gives a temporary duck lip for 2 weeks. I have never had anyone who was overfilled.

Fuller Lips

You can go one of two routes: dermal fillers or lip implants. I have found both to be successful and natural appearing, but there are pros and cons to both. Pros for dermal fillers: you can adjust the amount of filler and placement of it in your lips Cons: temporary and require reinjection, can sometimes be a little bit uneven if you are not careful. Pros for lip implant: reversible but otherwise doesn't require repeated injections, comes in 3 sizes, smooth result... more
