Should I wait to get lip filler until I lose all the weight I want? (photo)

Lips will not worsen or improve with weight gain or loss and are very genetic. I suggest you see an expert for treatment options. Dr. Emer.

Lip rejuvenation can be done at any age and the weight loss is not too important when it comes to timing of the injections. In addition, the entire face needs to be analyzed and the best procedures/product recommended so that the overall look/appearance is the most pleasing. Doing lips without addressing other concerns may not be a great idea.I recommend that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to proceeding with any treatments.I hope this helps and best regards, Dr. Sapijaszko.

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photograph.  I think you are an excellent candidate for a lip augmentation and would recommend using one of the hyaluronic acid dermal fillers such as Juvederm Ultra Plus.  This filler safely gives natural and noticeable results that are long-lasting.  Your weight loss will affect the tissues of your face more than your lips so go ahead and get your lips do now and consider fillers for your face to help support your tissues as you lose weight.  Hope this helps.

While is true in some plastic surgery procedures is better to lose weight beforehand, lip filler is not one of those procedures. The filler should be used to increase the fullness suppleness and height of your lips.  This should improve the overall shape and structure of your lips regardless of future weight loss plans. If you are considering having lip augmentation with dermal fillers, I would not delay based on future weight loss goals.I hope this helps

Thank you for your excellent question and for sharing your photograph.  Congratulations on your weight loss so far!  Based on your photograph, you appear to be an excellent candidate for a conservative lip augmentation with a filler such as Juvederm.  Weight loss will not affect the lips as compared to other areas of the face.  I would recommend that you see an expert injector for an in-person consultation, including a full facial analysis and a discussion of your specific concerns and your goals and expectations in order to determine the best treatment plan.  Hope this helps and best wishes!
