Are you looking for fuller, more defined lips? Lip augmentation could be the solution you need.
At Old Town Med Spa, Drs. Nael Gharbi and Shazel Gharbi, two of the top cosmetic surgeons in the Chicago area, regularly perform these procedures to help patients look and feel their best.
What Is Lip Augmentation?
Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the shape and fullness of the lips. At Old Town Med Spa, we use advanced techniques to ensure natural-looking enhancements that complement your facial features.
Types of Lip Augmentation
You can choose from various lip augmentation methods, including:
- Dermal fillers: This service provides immediate results with minimal downtime. Popular options include JUVÉDERM® and Restylane®.
- Fat transfer: This approach involves using your body's own fat to enhance lip volume. It offers longer-lasting outcomes than fillers.Â
- Lip implants: During this procedure, a surgeon makes small incisions at each corner of the mouth. They then insert an implant into the lips.
Benefits of Lip Augmentation
It doesn’t matter if you’re interested in fillers, fat transfer, or implants. Several advantages come with undergoing lip augmentation, including:
- Enhanced Facial Symmetry and Balance: Fuller lips can create a more harmonious appearance.
- Increased Self-Confidence and Self-Esteem: Improved lip volume and definition can make you feel more attractive and confident.
- Natural Results: Modern techniques allow for subtle enhancements that look and feel like your lips, only better.
Ideal Candidates
Most healthy adults who desire fuller lips and have realistic expectations are excellent candidates. You should also be a non-smoker – or at least willing to give up smoking in the weeks leading up to and immediately after your procedure. Avoiding smoking helps the healing process.Â
During the initial consultation, our experienced practitioners will assess your health history and aesthetic goals. They’ll use that information to determine the best approach for your lip augmentation.
FAQs
Dermal filler results can last anywhere from 6 to 12 months, depending on the type of filler used and individual factors. Fat transfer results can last longer, often several years. Lip implants are permanent unless you choose to have them removed.
Most patients report minimal discomfort when undergoing lip augmentation procedures. A numbing agent or local anesthetic is used to keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.
Lip augmentation is generally safe, but like any cosmetic procedure, it carries some potential risks. These may include temporary swelling, bruising, or asymmetry. Our practitioners take every precaution to minimize risks and ensure a smooth experience.
