Am I a good candidate for lip filler/injections? (photo)

You have a beautiful mouth shape and a full bottom lip. If you are unhappy with the size of your top lip, then you may consider a lip filler injection. You should consult a skilled facial plastic surgeon, who has extensive experience with injectables. Using a hyaluronic based lip injectable can create fullness into the top lip and better define the shape of the upper lip. It is important that you do not over inject the top lip, as you want to maintain the natural shape and proportion of your mouth. Lip injections last 4-6 months, so it is not a permanent procedure. You may choose to start with a mild enhancement to see if a fuller top lip satisfies your desired look. You can always ask for a more noticeable enhancement the next time.

From your photo and the information you’ve provided, you may be a good candidate for lip fillers. As you’ve mentioned, it’s important to keep in mind that the natural balance and proportions of your facial features should be maintained when considering injectable fillers. If you’re unhappy with the thinness of your upper lip in proportion to your bottom lip, mild injections to the upper lip could help to correct this imbalance. Be sure to choose a skilled, board-certified cosmetic surgeon who can deliver subtle, natural-looking results. Best of luck!

Hi there Isoot589Thanks for your post.Lip fillers provide an effective temporary solution to help volumize your lips. Dermal filler injections add volume to the lips and typically last around 4-6 months. In some cases duration of the effects can be a bit shorter or longer. It would be best to start with these, to get a feel for how big you want to go. Then you may want to go on to a more permanent solution.Permalip™ are revolutionary lip implants that are designed to look and feel natural, yet enhance your lip volume to your desired size.
