Is age 14 too young for lip augmentation (Juvederm)?

Question

I'm 14, and I was just wondering.

Stephen Prendiville, MD · Answer

Any discussion about the applicability of a procedure to a minor requires parental or guardian consent. However, unless there was some form of congenital malformation that called for volume augmentation of the lips, it would generally be considered too early for aesthetic purposes.

Nelson Castillo, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.  In my opinion, 14 is too young to have a lip augmentation.  Allow yourself a few years time to fully mature physically and psychologically before pursuing any cosmetic surgery procedure.

Chris Thiagarajah, MD · Answer

Yes. You are waay too young for a cosmetic procedure. Your face is changing and there really is not a cosmetic procedure that is appropriate for a 14 year old.

Wendell G. Miles, MD · Answer

The short answer is 14 is too young for cosmetic lip augmentation. There may be reconstructive indications: patients who have deficient lips after cleft lip repair, and other patients who are dealing with craniofacial issues. However, I can't think of any cosmetic procedure that is appropriate for a 14 year old.

Jeremy A. Benedetti, MD · Answer

I recommend waiting unitl you are 18 to decide if you would like to have Juvederm for aesthetic purposes.
