My doctor liposuctioned my small lips empty, especially lower lip during smas facelift. I read that fat injections to lips do not last. I dont want to have continuous fillers. Are the permanent solutions safe?
Answer: Permanent solution for fuller lips Thank you for your question, I am sorry your surgery left you with tin lips. The lip implant I use for my patients are Permalip Lip Implants, which are designed to look and feel natural, yet enhance your lip volume to your desired size. It does not deflate, degrade or rupture over time. Although it's permanent, it is designed for the ease of placement if a patient wishes to achieve a larger or small enhancement or even return to the lips original appearance. It does not limit lip movement. Lip Fillers provide an effective temporary solution to help volumize your lips. Dermal Filler Injections add volume to the lips and typically last around 4-6 months. In some cases duration of the effects can be a bit shorter or longer. Please seek out a board certified plastic surgeon in your area to attend a private consultation to discuss. All The Best

Answer: Implants are safe Fat grafting can be permanent, but it requires several rounds of grafting to get a full result. Lip implants are safe and will last as long as you are happy with them! They are a solid silicone implant so there is no concerns about leaking or rupture. They don't look good on EVERYONE -- if you have a long upper lip, you may require a lip lift procedure to look better. Find a surgeon that is well versed with the implant and see what they have to say (or post a pic sometime). Good luck!

Answer: How safe is permanent lip implant? Does it last for a lifetime? Hi, I have performed many lip augmentation procedures using dermal fillers or lip implants for over 30 years. 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 (temporary results) or a Permalip implant which does provide a permanent enhancement. 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.
