My lips are very small from the side profile. Lip Augmentation? (photos)

Question

My lips are very small from the side profile. I also have heavy nasolabial folds. I am interested in the Surgisil lip implants. I am not interested in a "natural" look. As I want to look enhanced. Since my lips are somewhat downturned would I need an extra surgery for a more lifted look? Or would implants help? Also will it help with the folds not being as prominent? I have also heard of cheek fat pad removal and am curious about that.

In order to give your lips volume there are a few different ways to go. One is have a lip implant put in surgically. Second is having Juvederm put in but that may last only a few months, There is also doing a fat transfer to the lip by having liposuction and putting it in the lip which gives you more of a natural look. This is something that you want to consult with the doctor about

Lip implants would certainly augment your lips and improve their appearance. As you know, they come in different sizes, see you can pick the size that you want.Cheek fat pad removal can be performed. If you choose to undergo this procedure, choose a surgeon who has extensive experience in the face to avoid damage to the salivary glands and facial nerve.
