Lip Augmentation

Lip Augmentation

In Austin, a smile goes a long way. While beautiful teeth are important to a smile, it can also be enhanced by full, well-balanced lips. No matter what heredity provided for your lip-line, lip augmentation can enhance your natural beauty with safe and effective fillers.

Is Lip Augmentation Right for You?

Lip augmentation is a personal decision based on individual preferences and your own notion of beauty. Age can play a role as the face—including the lips—begins to lose fatty tissue, causing an individual to appear older than they might prefer. For patients who are unhappy with their thin or uneven lips, lip augmentation can provide attractive and satisfying results.

The Lip Augmentation Procedure

Lip augmentation can be achieved through the use of injectables. Juvederm or Restylane, both popular injectable options, can be administered in an office setting to provide thicker, fuller lips. The effect is temporary and follow-up injections are required to maintain the result. SurgiSil™ PermaLip Implants are an FDA-approved alternative providing great results. The soft, silicone implant is an in-office procedure that increases the fullness of the lips without the need for periodic touch-ups. Another alternative is injecting fat from another part of the body. This is a more invasive procedure requiring outpatient surgery but the results are much longer lasting. Dr. Hall has experience with each of these methods and will consult with you on the preferred option for your individual needs.
