As we begin to correct the signs of aging with various cosmetic procedures it is important not to neglect the lips. The lips naturally loose volume and structural support as we age.

How Does Lip Augmentation Work?
Lip augmentation helps balance the overall symmetry of the face and is a crucial aspect of achieving a more youthful and desirable look. Injectable fillers like Restylane and Juvederm are the most commonly used lip augmentation products.
These fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, the same natural substance that is found in our skin. By using a naturally occurring compound, we minimize the chances of a reaction with results that look natural. The procedure can be performed with minimal discomfort with either a prior dental block, topical numbing or more commonly with the use of an injectable filler that is premixed with lidocaine.
What Can I Expect After Lip Augmentation?
Lip augmentation usually takes about 15 min to perform. Patients can expect to have some swelling and bruising for 2-3 days. The results last anywhere from 6-12 months with most patients having the procedure performed once a year.
This is a procedure with minimal risk and high satisfaction that can be safely performed by your SBC provider. Contact us today for more info.
