What are Non Invasive Techniques to Remove Fat Transfer on Lips? (photo)

OndineMar 22, 2012
Ten years ago, I had a fat grafting job to enhance lips. Since then my mouth became my nightmare, it looks fake, uneven and swollen. I would rather prefer a non invasive technique . May you please suggest me some procedures?

Creation of high cheek bones can be done with fat but  is better done with silicone implants. These are permanent and do not have to be repeated and are symmetrical. I use fat when the patient has good cheekbones but needs a small amount of definition.
