Prevelle Silk: The First Hyaluronic Acid Filler with Anesthetic in the US

I have been fortunate to use Prevelle Silk hyaluronic acid filler with lidocaine on a few of my patients. It is the first FDA approved hyaluronic acid filler available in the United States. The word "silk" aptly describes the product as it flows and fills very smoothly. It is too early for me to judge how long it will last, but if it lasts as long or longer than Restylane and Juvederm, this "new kid on the block" will rapidly become the most popular hyaluronic acid filler... more

Best options for lip augmentation

For patients interested in fuller, more pronounced lips, I would recommend hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers such as Juvederm or Restylane. I usually perform this in the office under local anesthesia. The length of time these fillers last is variable, roughly 6-8 months. These fillers really have minimal side effects and your surgeon can fine tune the result to the look you want. The result is usually immediate, but as the hyaluronic acid pulls in water, you can detect... more

Lip augmentation options

There are many permanent options for lip augmentation people who undergo these procedures are thrilled with their results. The liplift surgery is permanent as is the Permalip silicone implant. As far as less permanet results, the fillers and fat injections look great but require continuous treatments.

I prefer the hyaluronic acid fillers like Restylane or Juvederm Ultra for lip enhancement. I think they provide a soft, aesthetically pleasing lip augmentation. Although this is an off-label use of these products, it is becoming more and more common. The benefit is that the HA fillers fade away with time, and do not cause as much tissue distortion of the lips as some of the permanent lip implants like Gore-Tex or silicone do.

Nonsurgical lip enhancement

Which material is best to use for lip enhancement is always a question that patients ask. I have two preferences of the three that are most commonly used. My favorite is Restylane over Juvederm. Belatero is another product made by the same company that makes Radiesse. Just a note you can't put Radiesse in your lips. After injection of any filler you can expect your lips to swell a bit or take on some water which is normal for hyalorics. The advantage of all of... more

Best Lip Enhancement Products

I would recommend to start with hyaluronic acid fillers such as Juvederm or Restylane. These fillers realistically last 4-6 months, are very soft, malleable and natural looking. It depends on the area as far as how long the product lasts. Because there is more movement around the mouth area, it tends to resorb more (which is why I say every 4-6 months). I always tell patients when they first start getting fillers...less is more! You can always put more in. The reason why I love... more

The Best Lip Augmentation

Best Choices for Lip Augmentation

Hyaluronic Acid fillers (HA) such as Restylane and Jeuvederm are great for lip augmentation but have to be repeated every 1-2 years as are absorbable. Fat transfer is a good alternative and long lasting.
