What is lip augmentation?
. The lip augmentation procedure involves taking a strip of skin from the part of the lip near the nose. Although recovery from surgery can take about 7-10 days, the results of lip surgery include augmenting your lip size if you have thin lips or are experiencing signs of aging. A lip augmentation increases the pink part of the upper or lower lip or decreases the distance between the lips and the nose (the lip-to-nose ratio). The lips are worth the time.
If you are concerned that there are visible signs of aging around the mouth area, then lip augmentation is just right for you. You also need this surgery if the upper lip is thin or the upper teeth do not appear when the lips are opened
Patients can expect minimal post-operative bruising which usually does not last more than one week. The results of a lip lift are almost forever. The new youthful appearance can be maintained by sun protection, a healthy lifestyle, and follow-up with a plastic surgeon.
