Types of Lip Augmentation Treatments
1. Dermal Fillers (Most Popular)
Uses hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Juvederm or Restylane
Adds volume, enhances shape, and smoothens fine lines around lips
Quick, minimally invasive, with results lasting 6-12 months
2. Fat Transfer (Lip Fat Grafting)
Uses your own body fat harvested from areas like the abdomen or thighs
Provides a natural and longer-lasting solution
3. Lip Implants
Involves placing soft silicone implants for permanent enhancement
Suitable for those desiring long-term results
