Lip Enlargement

If you’re considering Lip Enlargement…

Thin lips can be injected with fat taken from other areas of the patient's body. This is usually done in an office setting with local anesthesia. Mild discomfort and early postoperative swelling can be expected. Although this method can produce a satisfying result, some resorption of the fat invariably occurs, with loss of more than 50 percent after the first 6 months. For this reason, overcorrection is usually done initially and many patients undergo repeated injections. 

If you’re considering eyelid surgery, this brochure will give you a basic understanding of the procedure- when it can help, how it’s performed and what results you can expect.  It can’t answer all of your questions, since a lot depends on the individual patient and the surgeon.  Please ask your surgeon about anything you don’t understand.
