The most common and easiest of all the procedures to enhance the lips is the collagen injection. The overall procedure takes between 20 to 30 minutes and is performed under local anesthesia.

Bigger Lips, Better Results

Yes, there are a few reliable lip enhancement procedures that will yield consistent, natural-looking and lasting results.

One procedure is called Autologous Fat Grafts, where the patient’s fat is harvested via gentle liposuction, treated and transferred into the desired site. This procedure takes about one hour and can be preformed under general or local anesthesia.

Another procedure is called, V-Y Advancement (Mucosal Advancement or Internal Tissue Arrangement). This procedure is permanent and has to be performed by a surgeon very skilled with this technique. Call Helen to find the right surgeon for you.

Lip Lifts

The most involved procedure for Lip Augmentation is the Lip Lift. In this procedure, a "new Lip" boarder is outlined, and skin from the actual red boarder of the lip is moved to the "new lip" location. Again, the recovery is relatively easy.

Lip Reduction

Some people are bothered by the fullness of their bigger lips. There are operations to thin the lips out and make them smaller. This procedure involves the removal of excess lip tissue, (the opposite of a lip lift) and is performed under local anesthesia.
