Autologous Fat Transfer provides a permanent solution to lip augmentation.  Both treatments are easily performed in the office.

  • There is no recovery period, you are able resume your normal activities almost immediately.

Lip Enhancement: Get a Beautiful Pout with Injections

Lip enhancement

Lip enhancement via fillers is a great way to achieve attractive lips and a nice smile. This type of injection offers numerous cosmetic benefits such as changing the size or shape of the lips, redefining the contours of the mouth, and improving the structure of the lips. Two of the best advantages are the instant results and the ability to control the way the lips appear.

Improved Appearance

The main benefit of lip enhancement is improvement in overall appearance. When the lips are fuller, the individual may appear to be younger. This usually leads to more self-confidence in both personal and professional settings.

Lip fillers were created to provide an exceptionally natural look. This is one of the reasons they contain hyaluronic acid. This substance is found naturally in the body and helps eliminate any issues or side effects during the procedure. The body can absorb the filler naturally. This means a maintenance procedure is usually necessary after multiple months have passed.

The Signs of Aging

Lip enhancement can help combat the effects of aging in addition to helping to plump the lips. The lip injection provides naturally fuller lips, which also smooths the skin. The mouth appears more youthful and firmer partially because the fine lines and wrinkles have been reduced. Premature aging can cause severe wrinkles to develop around the mouth as time passes. One of the best and most effective ways to minimize these lines and wrinkles is with a lip enhancement procedure via fillers.

Customization

Each procedure is based on the specific needs of the individual. One person may want to redefine or plump up just their lower lip. Another may be interested in adding volume to a specific area of the lips. The customization factor makes certain each person can have the look they desire.

To learn more about the benefits of lip enhancement, reach out to make an appointment with The Plastic Surgery Center, located in Sarasota and Bradenton! Our team of devoted professionals will go the distance to help you achieve your unique aesthetic goals. Contact us today to schedule a consultation!

Why is Lip Enhancement Becoming So Popular?

Lip Enhancement

Beautiful lips, such as those seen in TV commercials where a woman kisses a flower or smooches at the camera, aren’t what most of us have. Many women do, however, dream of having full, pouty lips. Various methods are used for lip enhancement, but one of the best options out there involves the use of dermal fillers.

Lip enhancement procedures are becoming more and more popular due to the amazing results they can provide, as well as the simplicity of the procedures. We can’t assure you that a lip enhancement procedure will make you look like a magazine model, but we can certainly help you enhance the overall appearance of your lips and face.

Issues with the Lips

Most often, our clients ask us how to treat their lips so that their face will have a more youthful appearance. The lips often become stretched and thin as we age and mature. This can make us look stern or annoyed, and it can also create an unbalanced look to the face.

We have a substance called hyaluronic acid in our bodies. It’s a natural substance that holds water in place. We produce less and less of it as we age, and this is one of the reasons our lips no longer have a plumped appearance and a natural swoop shape along the perimeter. Lip enhancement via dermal fillers can help correct this problem.

About Dermal Fillers

Some filler compounds are used to add volume or structure to the cheeks and alongside the nose. Several of these fillers can also be used to enhance the appearance of the lips. The fillers contain hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring molecule that holds moisture in the lip tissues.

These fillers are skillfully injected around the lip perimeter and sometimes directly into the lip tissue. The effect of the fillers becomes apparent very quickly and lasts for quite a while. Lip enhancement procedures are repeatable at regular intervals in order to maintain the results.

Is Lip Enhancement Right for You?

Lip enhancement is only becoming more and more popular, and the results are usually more pleasing than what the individual would expect. You can learn more about lip enhancement during a consultation at The Plastic Surgery Center. Contact us today to schedule an appointment at our office in Bradenton or Sarasota!

Lip Enhancement via Dermal Fillers

lip enhancement

By the time most of us have reached middle age, the aging process has begun taking a noticeable toll on our skin. Fine lines and wrinkles, sagging jowls and a loss of facial and lip volume are common complaints. Short of a facelift, most people are unaware of procedures and treatments that can minimize problems like these.

Fortunately, a number of cosmetic innovations for lip enhancement have become available fairly recently for handling problems like thinning lips. When our bodies start producing less of certain substances due to aging, the lips really show the effects. Older people, particularly women, often notice lips that have lost much of their former volume. A loss of lip volume can make you appear older than you really are.

A Look at Hyaluronic Acid

Hyaluronic acid is relatively unknown, but is gaining in popularity as a cosmetic ingredient due to its proven ability to restore volume to aging skin. Hyaluronic acid is produced by your own body and is found throughout the body. It has the ability to attract and hold many times its own weight in water. In turn, this water lends a plumping effect to each individual skin cell found in your lips and other soft tissues.

As you grow older, your body naturally produces less and less hyaluronic acid, leading to a loss of skin tightness, fullness and hydration. This is when you really begin to notice the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, dry skin and thinning lips.

Dermal Fillers for Lip Enhancement

Dermal fillers are injected formulations that help replace the missing hyaluronic acid that is causing your lips to thin. They can also be used for lip enhancement on people who have always had naturally thin lips. They are delivered into the lips with a series of injections.

The results of lip enhancement via dermal fillers are very desirable because they appear quite natural, unlike some treatments and procedures. Patients see an immediate improvement after their treatment session, and the results continue to get better over time.

One of the great things about this form of lip enhancement is that virtually no downtime is involved. Patients are free to resume most of their normal activities immediately following their treatment session. This makes it an extremely convenient procedure for people with busy schedules and lifestyles.

Contact Us Today to Learn More

Using dermal fillers like Juvederm® for lip enhancement is a convenient, safe and reliable way to achieve fuller lips. We invite you to make an appointment at The Plastic Surgery Center in Bradenton or Sarasota to learn more about your options for lip enhancement. Although we offer a wide range of surgical procedures like a tummy tuck, a mommy makeover and breast augmentation, we also provide less invasive treatment options like dermal fillers, CoolSculpting® and laser treatments.
