Non-Surgical Lip Lift (Augmentation)
The non-surgical Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to create fuller, smoother lips, and can also reduce fine lines around the mouth. Lip augmentation can be accomplished with the use of injectable fillers and perhaps the use of botulinum toxin (Botox®). This is not only an appearance-enhancing procedure, but also an anti-aging procedure, since thinner lips are one of the most noticeable and universal signs of aging. Who Is a Good Candidate? The best candidates for non-surgical lip augmentation are non-smokers who are in generally good health and who have a positive outlook and realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcome. Those with very thin lips, fine lines around the mouth, or asymmetry of the lips can benefit from the non-surgical lip augmentation. Restylane®, Perlane®, Juvederm®, Prevelle Silk, CosmoDerm and CosmoPlast are few examples of products used for non-surgical lip augmentation. On your consultation, Dr. Bolourian will discuss all your options so you can make an educated decision about choosing the right procedure for your younger and rejuvenated lips. Laser Lip Rejuvenation: Not actually an augmentation procedure, but can provide a lifting and smoothing effect to the lips by tightening the lips’ underlying collagen and elastin support structure Botox® Cosmetic: Use of Botulinum toxin (Botox®) can lift up the corners of the mouth and correct wrinkles around the lip which complements injectable fillers in rejuvenating the lips. |
