Botox for lip enhancement?

Botox doesn't enhance the lips.  Botox works by weakening muscle activity and by weakening muscles the wrinkles that they cause become less prominent.  Botox doesn't add volume to an area.  If you are thinking about making your lips fuller you should consider a filler.  Restylane and Juvederm are nice fillers for lip augmentation.  They are done in the office and offer immediate results with minimal downtime.  If you want to improve the lines on your forehead or around the eyes use Botox.  But you'll need a filler to make your lips fuller.

Hi MS.  Botox would not be used for your lips.  It may be used in certain cases like when a patients has fine vertical lines above the lips (smoker's lines) but in your situation, it would not be appropriate.  Botox is more commonly used between the eyes, in the forehead or at the sides of the eyes,  Ask your surgeon if you are a candidate for these other areas and good luck.

Botox does not help increase the size or shape of the lips at all, if anything it can cause the muscles around the lips to decrease function and impact your ability to smile and chew.  It is sometimes used for the upper lip lines, but at your age, there is little reason for this and the results are minimal compared to using filler -- something like juvederm, restylane or belotero.  Seek a cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in treating aging around the lip.  I wish you the best of luck, Dr. Emer.

BOTOX is used to weaken the muscles
of the forehead and the area around the eyes (crow's feet). It is not a filler,
so it is not used to directly make your lips bigger. Fillers such as hyaluronic
acids are used to enlarge the lips. BOTOX can be used in the lip region
judiciously in order to reduce lip wrinkling. Occasionally, the lip then
appears slightly larger as well because of the weakness of the upper lip muscle
after the treatment. It should not be used directly in the lip to enlarge the
lip. Discuss this issue with your surgeon or another facial enhancement
specialist. Best wishes!

Botox is not used for lip augmentation; however, there are some injectors who use it in an attempt to soften lines around the mouth. I do this very rarely, because it can lead to undesirable changes in the lips. Botox is best used to relax the muscles in the upper face. If you are looking for lip enhancement, fillers are an excellent option.

Botox is not used for lip augmentation. It may be used to rid of vertical wrinkles which are common in aging women and heavy smokers. It may be also used to help rotate the corners of the lips upwards when used correctly. Good luck

Botox can help the fine lines around your lips by decreasing muscle activity but does not add volume to the lip like filler agents such as Juvederm, Restylane or Belotero do.  Lip enhancement is part of a beautiful facial contour.  The lower lip should be about 1-1/2 times as full as the upper lip.  Botox is really a wrinkle reduction agent.  Lips are best rejuvenated by adding volume.  Keep your lips subtle and beautiful, let the fillers do their job. 

You look gorgeous so forget about the Botox! Maybe you can give it to a friend who needs it.  Botox is not a filler and is not meant for the lip area.  If you want larger lips then the proper injection would be Juvederm or Restylane.  

Botox around the mouth can be used for lip line wrinkles typically, and in some cases it can be used to roll the the under side of the top lip out slightly giving a little more wet dry boarder show. However, Botox is not used to "fill" lips. If you are looking to get a fuller pout then in my opinion restylane or juvederm both of which have been shown to last about 6 months in that area can give a great result.Hope this was helpful!

BAD IDEA!!!! You need to ask the surgeon about your wishes BUT I would not use BOTOX in that manner...
