If you are starting out with a very thin top lip could you still get results like Megan Fox or do you already need a slightly full lip? I want fuller sexier lips, but I don't want to look like a [RS bleep] star. Just wanting some professional advice. Thanks.
Answer: Be born again as Megan Fox Lip augmentation enhances existing lip structure. It does not create a completely different lip. Patients who have overaugmentation of their lips will end up with large sausages or develop an overprojecting, "duck-like" look. Patients who have silicone injections develop a "trout-like" appearance as the silicone chronically inflames and sags. There are many, many procedures that can be done on the lips to maximize their appearance from augmentation with temporary fillers, LiveFill (TM), fat injection, VY advancement flaps to reduce gumminess, Austin-Westin lip lifts for the corners of the mouth, Marionette line reduction etc etc etc. It is best to maximize the beauty that a person's natural features can achieve, not exceed them and produce a buffoonish appearance.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Improving Lip Volume with Lip augmentation with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Implants, Fat Thank you for your question. Most doctors will start with one-syringe to avoid overfilling. These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. PDO NovaThreads can also be used to improve shape and also provide lift. Fat or implants are a permanent alternative. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: How to get Megan Fox type lips
In the face it is a good idea to start with something non permanent. The soft and hard tissue of the face will change with time. We usually start out with a hyaluronic acid based filler, (i.e.; juvederm, restylane). Best to see a few experienced injectors and see what they offer. The lips can look natural and still have the volume that you want. The hyaluronic acid usually is soft, smooth, and kissable.

Answer: B conservative with fillers I think the biggest mistake some patients make when it comes to lip fillers is adding too much product too quickly. Their lips are not in balance with the rest of their face, and they simply look "done". The goal should really be a natural, elegant result, so I recommend using a product like Juvederm, and starting very conservatively (perhaps 1 syringe total, divided between the upper and lower lips) and then wait a week or so to see if you are happy with the fullness. If not, you can always add more, but this gives yo more control over the final result. Just like with any cosmetic procedure, the goal is to look your best, not to look like someone else. If you keep this in mind, pick the right surgeon for your procedure, and perform the procedure cautiously, you will get a very nice, full, but natural result. Good luck! Dr. Salemy

Answer: Fuller Lips Lips can be augmented with hyaluronic fillers such as Restylane, Juvaderm, or Perlane. I do not place any fillers in the lips that may result in lumps, bumps, or overall "unnaturalness." The key to getting fuller lips without looking artificial is to select your doctor appropriately. There are many physicians other than dermatologists and plastic surgeons who have ventured into this area and the results can be terrible. It takes special training to appreciate the specific anatomic landmarks of the lips. Care must be taken to not disrupt these landmarks when injecting. It is not simply a matter of "filling the lips." If done correctly, you can achieve the look you want.
