Most natural looking filler for fuller, softer lips?

M
mary457Jan 13, 2017

I'm 48 and my lips are losing volume with age. I'd like something that is going to last for at least 6 months but there are so many fillers and I'm confused. Restylane Silk, Juvederm, anything else? I want to avoid the duck lip look, also my lower lip is quite assymetrical and I'm hoping a good injector can make them look more even.

A small amount of filler will help to fill in the slight depression and shadow. This will be non permanent so if you do not like the results, they will eventually dissolve. This is quite a tricky problem to treat, but your best option might be a cheek lift which is a little more invasive but the...

From your photos I would say that you would need the smallest amount of filler injected in to your cupid's bow to help enhance its shape.

Yes, you can have dermal fillers into the lips even with piercings in place. Your injector should be careful around the piercing and, depending on location, it could affect the outcome of the lip augmentation to a degree.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

The lip shape can be improved. Technique will be important here, so you will want someone meticulous. I recommend using cannulas with injections.These fillers, (Volbella, Restylane, Juvederm) are good to create a symmetrical and full lip. Implants or fat are alternative options. See an expert fo...
