What's the best lip enhancement and plumping?

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... more

The longest lasting filler is silicone; however, that is something I would never use. The thing about the human face is that it changes over time, and the structure of your face five years ago is different than it is today and it's different than it will be in five years. So, you really don't want anything... more

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... more

Fillers are a... more

There are of course several options for lip enhancement. Overall though, fillers are the best option. They are temporary, and fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane and Perlane are excellent options that can provide a natural looking and feeling result. A more permanent solution is fat grafting, but this should... more

 First off, I would not recommend any type of silicone product for lip augmentation.  Although they are being used, I don't think they look or feel natural, and they have a high complication rate.  Although the HA fillers are temporary, they give a very soft and natural result, and you can... more

There are many options that have been described for lip augmentation, though I would start with a Hyaluronic Acid based gel such as Juvederm Ultraplus. It is a soft gel that is more form stable than others and if injected in the red mucosa of the lip is will give a plumper look for maybe 8 months. I perform... more
