What are the age restrictions for lip fillers/injections like Juvederm? (Photo)

Asked By:soomsam29 in College Station, TX

I'm 18 years old and am considering getting my lips enhanced this year but would still like them to look natural, without that obvious, for lack of better word, "plastic surgery" look. I'm not looking for a VERY dramatic or specific look. I am happy with the shape of my lips but they're too thin for me and I would like them to be more full/bigger, especially my upper lip. Which treatment is best and will I be legally allowed to get it, given that I am 18?
