New Jersey Lip Enhancement Before and Afters

Lip Enhancement

People who are dissatisfied with the aesthetic look of their lips may benefit from a lip enhancement procedure. Lip enhancement is achieved through injecting a dermal filler or related material into the lips or by inserting an implant. A lip enhancement procedure can add volume and suppleness to the lips in order to enhance a patient’s overall appearance.

Ideal candidates for lip enhancement procedures are those patients who are in good psychological and physical health with realistic expectations about the outcome. Those who may benefit the most include individuals with naturally thin lips or premature signs of aging. Smokers may also benefit from a lip enhancement procedure since smoking causes fine lines and puckering around the lips.

New Jersey Lip Enhancement: Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers are perhaps the most popular type of lip enhancement treatment available. Common dermal fillers include:

• Collagen
• Radiance
• Alloderm
• Hylaform
• Restylane
• Isolagen

Some dermal fillers are made with human or animal sources, while others are completely synthetic. Depending on the filler chosen, a patient may need to have an allergy test prior to the procedure to prevent any unwanted, adverse reaction. Dermal filler injections offer patients a relatively safe and convenient way to achieve fuller lips with semi-permanent results. While costs vary, dermal filler injections typically range in price from $300 to $2,000.

New Jersey Lip Enhancement: Implants

In addition to dermal fillers, lip enhancement can also be achieved through the use of implants. Popular lip implants include:

• Gore-tex
• SoftForm
• UltraSoft

Lip implants generally cost more than dermal fillers, ranging in price from $2,000 to $5,000. However, lip implants offer the additional benefit of being permanent, yet reversible. As with all surgical procedures, there are some risks associated with each type of lip enhancement technique. Common side effects of lip enhancement procedures typically include a certain degree of pain and swelling, which can be alleviated with pain medication, ice packs, and rest.
