Lip Enhancement

Dermal fillers or fat grafts taken from your own body can be injected into the lips to add volume, contour, and a more luscious appearance. There are a variety of treatments that are useful for lip enhancement, including Restylane^®, Juvederm^®, fat injections and more. Our plastic surgeon can advise you of what may be the best option for you at your initial consultation here at the Long Island Plastic Surgical Group.

Lip augmentation procedures typically last under 30 minutes and often require no downtime after treatment. Injections are made in the treatment area with an ultra-fine needle. A local anesthetic may be applied to help you feel more comfortable during the procedure. There may be some mild swelling or bruising after treatment, but this should fade quickly and results are typically instantaneous. Depending on which injectable is used, the effects of lip augmentation treatments can last anywhere from 3 to 12 months or more, and even longer with occasional touch-up treatments.

Lip augmentation is an effective, minimally-invasive way to add volume to the lips and give your entire face a renewed, more youthful aesthetic. Please contact the Long Island Plastic Surgical Group to schedule a consultation for lip enhancement. One of our plastic surgeons will be happy to address your questions and concerns.
