Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation is one of our most requested cosmetic procedures. We have several options to choose from:

  • Fat
  • Cymetra
  • Collagen

Fat:

We remove a small amount of fat from your tummy or thigh. After treating the fat with a special process, we can then inject the fat into your lips, or face. This process takes your own fat and collagen which is then re-injected. It provides a lasting result. This process is also used to fill or augment other aspects of the face including minor wrinkles. Because we use your own fat this procedure is more affordable.


Pt complaining of small lips as well as wrinkles around her lips and in her smile lines

She had BOTOX® injections to reduce the wrinkles around the lips as well as to elevate the corners of the lips. She had Fat taken from her lower abdomen and injected into her lips (upper and lower) and smile lines (nasolabial folds)

These “After” pictures are taken 4 months after her second injection (over a one year period). You can see the improvement in the lip contour on the side pictures the projection that the lipofilling procedure has provided can be appreciated.

Cymetra:

This is Alloderm in a syringe. Cymetra is very easy to work with and inject and although not permanent, Cymetra will provide you with excellent lasting results when used for lip augmentation.

Collagen:

The standard that has been in use for more than 20 years. Although not as long lasting, collagen is more affordable than other lip augmentation procedures. We provide free skin testing for potential candidates.

Other injectable products are under investigation by the FDA and once approved Dr. Miremadi will be offering these in the Center.
