Larger lips - My ideal look is Brigitte Bardot. (photos)

Question

I have small, full lips. I would like them larger, mostly near the outside corners.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. Technique will be important here, so you will want someone meticulous. I recommend using cannulas with injections. Implants or fat are also options. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs.  Based on your goals I would recommend conservative placement of a thin hyaluronic acid filler, such as Volbella.  This will help augment your lip size incrementally, while maintaining a natural look.

Hi Naomi. I think you are a very good candidate for lip augmentation. There are many options for dermal fillers (Volbella, Restylane, Silk, Juvederm). I suggest you speak with a certified injector with plenty of experience. To achieve the results you're looking for remember good communication is very important.

Warmest regards, Dr. ALDO

Thank you for your question and for sharing your photographs.  Based on your photos, you appear to be an excellent candidate for a conservative lip augmentation with a hyaluronic acid based dermal filler such as Juvederm.  Beautiful and natural results can be achieved.  Please be sure to see an expert injector for an in-person consultation to fully discuss your goals and expectations in order to determine the best treatment plan.  Hope this helps and best wishes!

Hi, I have performed many lip augmentation procedures using dermal fillers or lip implants for over 30 years. From the photos, your lips could be a bit fuller. Following the beauty principles outlined in my book on face and body beauty, the upper lip should be approximately 75 % the size of the lower lip for the lips to appear balanced. The lips can be augmented using a dermal filler or a Permalip implant.

Dermal filers and lip implants offer far more reliable volume to augment the lips than permanent fillers or fat injections that are also associated with increased, unwanted, side effects.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for adding your photos. You already have good lip structure. Adding a little more volume with a filler like Restylane or Juvederm would work very nicely for you. These are temporary fillers that have to be reinjected in about a year. I would be conservative at first as you can always add more if the initial injection does not give you the volume you are looking for. If a cannula is used, you should not get too much swelling and bruising and you will be able to see the results right away.

I have added a web reference and video to help educate you about fillers that I hope help.

Best regards.
