Permalip Or My Own Fat For The Most Permanent Luscious Lips?
Hello ! I desire to have luscious lips, but I research a permanent solution, because I desire to have a permanent lipstick and my lips must remain intact! Are Permalip implants really permanent or should be changed every few years ? My own fat is really permanent ? How many surgery for this ? Thank you !

Permalip and fat can both be used for lip augmentation
Permalip and fat can both be used for lip augmentation, but each has its drawbacks.
The potential drawbacks of Permalip are that it is a foreign body implanted into your body and it has the potential (although a very, very, very low potential) of affecting how your lips move and feel. However, it can be removed if you don't like it!
Fat is nearly the ideal injectable material, because comes from your own body! The drawbacks of fat injection are that it requires harvesting...

Permanent Lip Augmentation
Bonjour! While fillers are a great way to augment your lips, if you seek a more permanent solution, I prefer permalip. I also work closely with a team who can also create permanent and semi-permanent lip color/lipstick following the lip augmentation.

Lip implants
Soft preformed silicone implants work quite predictably and can be easily removed if there is a problem . Fat is unpredictable in so far as retaining it's shape and volume.

Permalip versus fat
Each option can provide very nice results. Permalip is a silicone implant that comes in various sizes and gives relatively predictable, dependable results. It is easy to place the implant and can be done under local anesthetic. Should you not like the implant it can be removed easily. The downfall to silicone is that the implant cannot be molded or customized.
Fat is another great semi-permanent option. It is safe and from your own body and has better longevity than synthetic fillers...

Perma lip augmentation or fat injections into the lips are both more longer lasting options for lip augmentation
Permalip augmentation is a definite option for more longer lasting lip augmentation enhancement. Benefits are that the silicone implant will not go away or get absorbed. The procedure is quick and the healing is faster than fat injections. The drawbacks are the foreign material and the idea of that. The silicone implants is something that you will feel and will not be as natural as fat feeling. Pursing your lips is more difficult with perma lip augmentation.
Fat injections of the lips is...

For Beautiful lips AVOID implants and permanent fillers!!!
I would STRONGLY dissuade you from putting anything in your lips other then Hyaluronic based products such as Juvederm or fat! ANY permanent injectable implant will not look natural time and will have a HIGH likelihood of displacement, extrusion, inflammation, granuloma formation, tissue distruction, premature aging not to mention unnatural appearance and distortion with movement. Fat is by far the best filler but must be harvested handled and injected properly (very few people...

Lip Augmentation
I would try an injectable filler before surgery such as Restylane to enhance your lips. The injectables work great and last 6 months to 1 year. If you want something more permanent I would suggest the Perma lip because it is easily removed.

Permalip Or My Own Fat For The Most Permanent Luscious Lips?
Permalip Or My Own Fat For The Most Permanent Luscious Lips? I have peformed Lip augmentations for over 20 years and witten a scientific paper on the subject. The gold standard for permanent lip augmentation, IMHO, is Alloderm sheets not the saline filled or silastic lip implants as these need to be placed deep within the lips. Alloderm is soft and more supple because it's softer material that can be placed immediately below the outer lip mucosa. The results last...

Permanent Luscious Lips
Your best choice, in my opinion, is Aquamid. Try temporary filler first, like Restylane or Juvederm. If you like it, the Aquamid is injected the same way, is very natural, soft, and non-reactive. 97.5% water, 2.5% polyacrylamide hydrogel, available in Paris. Permalip has the advantage that it can be removed, but the implants are slightly more firm (and thus less natural) than Aquamid.

Fuller lips
Twenty years ago I developed an excellent proceedure for just this problem. I do a dermal-fat graft from the lower abdomen to the lips as a transplant. The results are totally natural and permanent. Fillers are temporary, non-natural implants are a disaster and often have to be removed ( i.e. permalip), and fat alone will disappear usually within 6 months. Your own tissue as a dermal-fat graft works fabulous and is permanent. Go to aventuraplasticsurgery .com to see many examples of this...

Permanent luscious lips!
There are 3 major lip implants that all work very well for beautiful lips and are easy to put in and easy to remove if ever need be for roughly $1500-2000 each. Fat grafting is more unpredictable and can be alittle bumpy and can disappear in 6 months for roughly $2500 per session. Sincerely,

Permalip implants
The permalip implants I saw are not natural, and interfer with the lip movement, That is why I decided not to use them. Use fat transfer.

Silikon-1000 may be used by experienced physicians for permanent, natural-looking lip augmentation.
Silikon-1000 is a permanent, off-label filler, so your results, good or bad, are permanent. My experience with Silikon-1000 for lip augmentation has been excellent. Several treatments (1-3) are typically necessary to obtain a desired result, and in my practice, problems are infrequent. You must find a reputable dermatologist or facial plastic surgeon experienced with the serial puncture, micro-droplet technique. You should also have a discussion with your doctor about the FDA's position...
