What is lip enhancement?
As seen displayed by actresses, models, and many other red carpet celebrities, full, smooth, ultra-feminine lips are the reigning beauty trend and one that is here to stay. Women who are unhappy with the size, shape, projection, color, or texture of their lips have many options for improving the look of their smile. And thanks to the cutting-edge technology now available on the market, results need no longer appear overdone. When performed by a skilled, precision-minded practitioner, lip enhancement can amplify your natural beauty and attractiveness, giving you that extra boost in self-confidence.
While some women gradually lose their lip volume and shape during the aging process, others never had the plump, alluring lips they desired in the first place. For all clients, lip enhancement offers the chance to finally love what they see in the mirror.
How is lip enhancement performed?
After you undergo a private consultation with our team, we will create a personalized action plan for resolving your cosmetic concerns. Lip enhancement techniques vary in terms of the longevity of their results and the downtime needed afterward. We will ensure you receive the best solution for your needs.
Dermal fillers
Most lip fillers are formulated with hyaluronic acid, a compound found organically in the human body. HA binds with water molecules to produce a hydrated, supple lip appearance that is effortlessly youthful. The treatment process is painless and comes with no downtime. Results can last anywhere from 6-8 months.
Fat injections
Here, fat is harvested from another area of the body where it is unwanted, such as the hips, belly, or thighs. It is then purified and sterilized before being injected into the lips to restore subtle yet rounded contours. Fat injections have the added benefit of slimming the donor region.
Silicone injections
Similar to using lip implants, silicone injections can produce long-term results that improve the shape, size, and texture of the lips. Microinjections are strategically placed to create a natural-looking transformation.
Lip implants
Silicone lip implants can be used to create a new, improved lip appearance that is more inviting and sexy. These may be appropriate for those that are not comfortable with silicone lip injections.
Upper lip lift
This minor surgical procedure is performed under local anesthesia to gently elevate the upper lip, shortening the distance to the nose and revealing more of the red portion of the lip.
