I have had fillers before(2years ago was the last time) and would like to achieve a full pouty lip. Would 1.5 or 2ml be better for me?
Answer: How much filler? You have nice full lips currently, so I would recommend beginning with 1ml of filler. The great thing about this treatment is that you can go slowly and build up the look that you want. If you enjoyed your results before you can anticipate that a similar amount of product will give you a similar result.

Answer: Lip Augmentation There are surgical and non-surgical approaches to lip augmentation. Non-surgical approaches include botox (slight lift, reducing gum show) and filler (volume restoration). Surgically, you can have two separate incisions under the nose (italian), one incision under the nose (bull horn), one incision at the red/white upper lip junction (gull wing) or two separate incision at the corners, or a combination, depending on your desired look and anatomy. My preferred surgical technique is called the Elelyft, which is a version of the bullhorn approach. In your situation, would start with 1 syringe and evaluate it from there. Consult with an experienced lip surgeon for a complete range of options that are appropriate for your situation. Gary Linkov, MD Lip Specialist / RealSelf Lip Lift Medical Reviewer Manhattan

Answer: Lip augmentation Dear joycepanayides, it is hard to tell for sure without an examination. Based on your photo, it looks like you already have full lips. If you are considering a treatment, I would suggest you to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Only after a thorough examination you will get more information and recommendations.

Answer: Filler Hello, your lips look pretty full as they are. I would start by injecting no more than 1 syringe (1ml) at a time. After your swelling goes down you can reevaluate and decide if you would like to do more or not.
