We continue to have great success with Permalip

Permalip implants provide permanent and natural results

I have used permalip implants recently to replace the nonpermanent lip procedures such a fat grafting, alloderm, and dermal fillers. The results have been gret in providing a soft and natural result.

You do have to understand that there still is a risk for infection and need for removal if this happens but it can be replaced if desired.

Permal Lip

We have had such good results with Perma Lip Implants, that we have pretty much stopped putting fillers in lips. The results are much better, and the patients are happy. The implants are very safe, and in most cases, be performed in the office using a dental block.

Permalip Implants

I recommend trying injectable fillers at least once before undergoing a permanent lip augmentation. It is important that you really like the look of fuller lips on yourself before you commit to a permanent enhancement. I like the Permalip implant, it looks really natural, even on older women. It's easy to place and easy to remove should you decide to have them out or want to change the size of your implant. I find my patients uniformly love the look once the... more

Permalip implants

Permanent lip implants are not my favorite,, They can extrude, get infected, and be malpositioned. I would use fillers.

Lip Augmentation for fuller lips

Permalip is a solid silicone implant used to create fuller lips. Other implant choices are a saline filled, gortex coated implant and Alloderm which is freeze dried tissue. The first two are permanent but are more stiff and could possibly move or migrate to the surface. I prefer Alloderm and have done many over the past 15 years because it is softer and can be placed below the pink portion of the lip and above the lip muscle. It lasts about 7 years.
