What Is Lip Augmentation? Plastic Surgery for Lips

A surgical treatment called lip augmentation is used to produce lips that are larger and appear younger. One can choose from a variety of lip augmentation techniques to meet their requirements and objectives.

The following range of methods might be utilized to accomplish lip augmentation:

Grafting Fat

Another name for this is fat injections or fat transfer. In this process, a patient's fat is extracted from another part of their body—typically their stomach—purified, and then injected into their lips.

Lip Fillers: Also referred to as dermal fillers, lip fillers are injections used to increase a patient's lip size in the lips and surrounding area of the mouth.

Lip Implant

The plastic surgeon makes a little incision around the mouth's corner, places an implant into the lips, and then sews the incision closed. The purpose of this surgery is to improve the patient's lips' cosmetic attractiveness.

Lifting the Lips

A lip lift is a kind of lip augmentation when extra skin is cut from the corners of the patient's mouth or from the space between their nose and upper lips. The intention is to raise the lips.

It should be mentioned that if the patient has their lips reduced in size during the process, lip augmentation can also be referred to as lip reduction surgery. To achieve the intended outcomes in the instance of lip reduction surgery, a different process will be used.

A lip augmentation is a type of plastic surgery used to alter a person's lip size, shape, and appearance. Using techniques like lip implants, lip lifts, or lip fillers, one can alter the size, shape, or volume of their lips.
