What is a lip augmentation ?

Lip augmentation is a procedure to enhance and to improve the fullness of lips. Lip enhancement is accomplished either by injection of a soft tissue filler, such as collagen or by the placement of synthetic or grafted material.

The choice of the kind of procedure (medical or surgical) and of the material to be used depends upon the cosmetic result that one wants to achieve and the decision is made in tune with the patient at the end of a meticulous specialist examination.


   

What type of anaesthesia is used ?

Lip augmentation is practised under local anaestesia.Here are the options of lip enhancement surgery :
Artecoll is a synthetic material that plumps up the lips. Because it's synthetic, you are at higher risk of having an allergic reaction to it than if you got an injection of collagen or fat, but its results last longer than either.

Autologen is an injection of your own collagen, extracted from another place on your body. There's no risk of allergic reaction, however, the results are only temporary. This may be good for people who don’t look for a permanent result.

Collagen can be extracted from cows and injected into the lips. There's a risk of allergic reaction, so it's best to have your surgeon give you a test dose before proceeding to the full dose. The results are temporary lasting 4 weeks to three months.

 

Who are the best candidates for lip augmentation ?

You must be in good general health overall. You will not a good candidate for lip surgery if you have :

  • Certain diseases such as diabetes
  • Any scarring of the lips
  • Blood clotting problems
 

What are the risks and complications associated with lip augmentation ?

  • Like any cosmetic surgery, there are risks and complications in lip surgery. You can have allergic to implants reactions or infection or allergic reaction to anesthesia.
  • You can experience bleeding or an implant that hardens, which may require removal. You also risk infection or perhaps even nerve damage in some cases.
