What Is Lip Augmentation?

Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure that aims to create plump, full lips, enhancing the current appearance through cosmetic non-surgical methods called dermal fillers. These fillers are injected and typically contain hyaluronic acid, a substance that already exists in the body. 

Here are some of the most common reasons why people choose lip filler treatments:

Maintaining a Youthful Appearance: Lips often decrease in size with age because collagen is lost and elasticity starts to decrease. If you notice that your lips are getting smaller and fine lines are forming on the edges, then it might be time to learn more about lip fillers.

Improving the Overall Shape of the Lips: Some people have asymmetrical lips, or the lips are different shapes. Fillers can be distributed to create symmetry and correct any lines that aren’t in alignment.

Erase Wrinkles Around the Mouth: Another sign of aging is the development of wrinkles on the edges of the lips or around the mouth. Fillers add volume to smooth over these wrinkles, which helps to restore a younger appearance.

Boosting Your Confidence: You deserve to have a smile that you feel confident sharing with everyone that you meet. Lip fillers can help you overcome small insecurities, which have an undeniable impact on self-esteem and overall confidence.

How Hyaluronic Acid Injections Work

Hyaluronic acid is a biological compound that occurs naturally in the human dermis (skin). 

When used as an injected filler in targeted fashion, it temporarily stimulates the body’s production of natural collagen to add volume to the skin and smooth or erase age-related lines and wrinkles. 

Hyaluronic acid works best to treat minor to moderate lines and volume loss around the nose, lips, chin, and cheeks.

Over time, injected hyaluronic acid breaks down in the body, but the collagen it leaves behind remains for longer periods of time. Eventually, however, the collagen dissipates as well and the results fade, returning the patient more or less to a pre-treatment state. 

Touch-up procedures may prolong results for months after they’d normally disappear. 

There is some evidence that certain patients may require lower filler doses to achieve similar results in follow-up procedures, but more study is needed to conclusively determine that this is the case.
