Full, luscious lips are a sign of femininity and youth. Studies of facial attraction have shown that a woman's lips are one of the first things that both men and women notice when deciding whether a face is attractive enough or not. Unfortunately, not all women are lucky enough to have full, feminine lips. Other times, lips can shrink with age or weight loss. Lip augmentation can improve the size of lips that are too thin or flat.
There are many options for lip augmentation offered bSkin and Laser Center. The right option for you depends on many factors that can only truly be assessed during a personal consultation. We invite you to call us at
Lips and Attractiveness
Why are women's lips so important? We're not entirely sure, but because men's and women's lips are such recognized markers of gender in a face, we assume that selection pressure caused women to develop noticeably fuller lips at some point in the prehistoric past. Likely to prehistoric cultures, full lips signaled youth and health, key factors in fertility and therefore desirable
Since the earliest recorded history, full lips have been recorded as an attractive feature for a woman, and lip makeup is listed among the Egyptians' cosmetic pallet. Cosmetic lip enhancement is common to most cultures around the world.
Lip Augmentation Options
Nonsurgical lip augmentation is the most common lip augmentation technique. This technique involves the use of injectable fillers to increase the volume of lips. We recommend hyaluronic acid fillers for lip augmentation including:
Restylane/Perlane
Juvéderm
Belotero
Hyaluronic acid fillers give smooth, natural-looking results for lip augmentation, although the duration of results is shorter in the lips than when used elsewhere in the face, generally lasting less than three months.
There are also surgical lip augmentation options, but because nonsurgical lip augmentation works so well, many people do not find these to offer a good tradeoff. We can discuss these options during your consultation.
Why Choose Skin and Laser Center
Lip augmentation is a delicate procedure, with a skilled hand crucial to obtaining natural and attractive results. Skin and Laser Center, our doctors and staff are world-famous for their skill and results. Our doctors' experience draws other doctors from around the globe to train at our central Manhattan practice
Kylie Jenner's lip injections motivate New York teens
They’re not old enough to put a beer bottle to their lips — but injections are another story.
One day after Kylie Jenner outed her pout and admitted she got lip enhancement injections when she was 17, New York teens said they’ve done it, too — and would again.
“I disliked my lips and makeup was just not cutting it,” says 19-year-old Upper East Sider Sara Lewis, who got injections after “seeing celebrities like the Kardashians with full lips.”
Lewis said her parents made her wait until she was 18 — but the Hunter College nursing student has continued the treatment, getting her latest lip booster six months ago.
She’s hardly alone in signing up for the $500 shots. There have been 20 million injections of Restylane — one of the most popular enhancement gels — since it was approved by the FDA 20 years ago. Thousands more opt for other forms of lip augmentation, such as collagen injections, according to BeautyResearch.com.
But now lip injections are the gateway cosmetic procedure. A new study shows that 36% of young women aged 18 to 26 want lip injections before any other enhancement.

What is Juvederm®™ ? Juvederm®™ made its debut on the market in January, 2007 as the newest weapon in lip enhancement and wrinkle reduction. This is a smooth, cross-linked hyaluronic acid-based clear gel, which is injected into the skin with an ultra-fine needle.
How does Juvederm®™ work and what are the advantages? It immediately lifts and adds volume to the areas being treated, creating a plump and pouty look. The skin remains soft and natural to the touch. No skin test is required and there is no downtime.
Are Juvederm®™ results instantaneous? Results are visible immediately following treatment. You can expect to experience some swelling after the procedure, so your lips should be larger than the desired end result. Swelling will resolve within two to three days and lips will retain a full and sculpted look.
Do I need more than one Juvederm®™ treatment? Touch up treatments may be desired to further enhance the look, however, one treatment can deliver the desired results.
How long can I expect Juvederm®™ results to last? Treatment results differ for each person, however, you can expect results to last from 3 and up to 8 months.
What are some of the possible Juvederm®™ side effects? There are no reported allergic reactions. The most common side effects with any injection include possible bleeding, and tenderness, redness, or swelling. These side effects last, on average, 2 to 3 days

What is hyaluronic acid lip filler ? nyc new york ny
Hyaluronic acid is a natural complex sugar found throughout all living organisms that retains water — absorbing more than 1,000 times its weight — and adds volume to the skin’s surface. In addition, hyaluronic acid binds with collagen and elastin and transports essential nutrients to these fibers. The triple combination of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid provides structure, elasticity and volume to the skin and contributes to its overall appearance.
As the skin ages and is exposed to environmental pollutants and ultraviolet rays, the cells lose the ability to produce hyaluronic acid. As a result, the skin begins to lose volume, often resulting in the formation of facial wrinkles and folds. Dermal fillers compromised of crossed-linked hyaluronic acid are used by physicians to help temporarily replace lost hyaluronic acid and to restore skin volume and a smooth, natural appearance.

What is a lip lift?
A lip lift is a plastic surgery procedure to shorten, elevate and lift the lip. The purpose is to make the lip look shorter and younger with more pink lip exposed. The problem with lip lift plastic surgery is that the scar is very visible beneath the nose. In my practice the scar is unacceptable and we achieve adequate lip lift with the use of dermal filler lip injections or lip augmentation.
What are lip implants?
Lip implants are biocompatible, permanent materials surgically placed into the lip for lip augmentation or enhancement. Common materials include Bioplastique® and Gore-Tex®. Because the lips have strong muscles and remove frequently non-biological implant materials are not well tolerated in the lips. Lip implants can extrude or become exposed in some patients. Dermal filers have replaced the lip lift in our practice.

here is an art to lip enhancement, which makes selection of an injector critical. The injector must also understand the complex, and sometimes unforgiving, anatomy of the lips. These artistic and technical demands explain why so many patients receive sub-standard lip injections and are left with unnatural results. Patients often believe that lip enhancement always leads to unnatural, over-filled results; in actuality, this should never occur in experienced hands.

After thousands of filler injections, he is a respected authority on facial fillers, serving as a national trainer for Allergan (the makers of Juvederm and Voluma).

What is Restylane Silk? NYC New York, NY
What Is Restylane Silk?
Restylane Silk is the first and only FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment specifically designed to plump the lips and fill fine lines around the mouth. Silk is made from a unique gel formulation of hyaluronic acid (the same naturally occurring sugar that helps create full and supple skin), which allows for a smooth and subtle result.
How Does Restylane Silk Work?
A trained physician will inject Restylane Silk into the lips and in the lines around the mouth using an ultrafine needle. The amount used per treatment should be limited to 1.5mL per lip for augmentation, and 1.0mL for correcting fine lines around the mouth. Using more than this could increase the risk of negative reactions at the injection site, such as swelling and bruising.
What Results Can I Expect From Restylane Silk?
In a clinical trial, 98% of participants reported a visible increase in fullness two weeks after treatment. Because of the gel’s small, smooth particles, as well as the ultrafine needle designed for precision, results should appear more subtle than with other forms of lip augmentation like implants. You should expect natural looking results, with refined volume and definition. In general, those who use Restylane Silk can expect their results last roughly six months.

How Long Does Belotero Last? NYC New York NY
Belotero is a hyaluronic acid filler that is a little finer (less viscous) than some of the other fillers like Restylane or Juvederm. This makes it great for very fine lines as well as under the eyes. I also find that it's a good filler for the lips for my patients who want a little correction but don't want their lips to look "filled" or overdone.
It doesn't tend to last as long as Restylane or Juvederm, but I think the advantages outweigh the shorter longevity. Depending on where it is placed, if usually lasts from 6-9 months.

Best fillers for lips? NYC New York NY
There are several different fillers for lips including Restylane, Juvederm and your own fat. In my experience Juvederm is the softest. Although it is possible to get lumps with Juvederm this is fairly rare. Juvederm should last about six months.
Choices of LIp Fillers NYC New York NY
It depends on where the fillers will be placed. There are a number of ways to alter the lip contour and the visual appearance of fullness.
For injecting in the actual body of the lip, Juvederm and Belotero are great soft gel products.
For injecting around or "behind" the lip - when actually injecting "into" the lip is not required or not desired, you can achieve some natural lip eversion (turns out) with either of the fillers mentioned or Restylane or even Perlane.
The entire lip area should be viewed as a unit - sometimes there needs to be some additional substructure support above, below, behind and adjacent to the lips themselves to keep everything in a natural-looking proportional balance.

Lip Augmentation Cost
The cost of a lip augmentation procedure will vary based on certain factors, such as the doctor who performs it, the type of lip augmentation method, and the geographic location in which the procedure is performed. Most doctors accept major credit cards, and some will work with patients to devise a payment plan that will allow them to pay for the procedure over time. Find out more about the factors that will influence the cost of lip augmentation.
Lip Implants
One lip augmentation method involves the use of lip implants. Lip implants are shaped like a small tube and filled with synthetic material. A small needle is used to insert the implants into the lips through tiny incisions. One benefit of this method of lip augmentation is that the results are long-lasting. Unlike injectable lip fillers, the implants are not absorbed into the body, but remain fixed in place. Learn about the different types of lip implants and the surgical procedure to place them.
Lip Augmentation with Fillers
With so many different types of injectable fillers available for lip enhancement, you are sure to find one that suits your needs. Common types of fillers include fat, collagen, and Restylane® . The effectivness of each lip filller as well as the duration of each filler’s effects will vary. The lip augmentation procedure is quite simple, lasting only a few minutes and having a low incidence of lip sensitivity. Learn more about the different types of lip fillers.
Lip Augmentation with Fat Transfer
Lip augmentation with fat transfer is a revolutionary method for improving the volume of the lips.With this form of cosmetic lip surgery, the doctor carefully prepares fat liposuctioned from one area of the body for injection into the lips. Since the tissue used in this method comes from your own body, it is less likely to be rejected by your body, and the result is supple, natural-looking lips. Learn more about lip augmentation with fat transfer.
Lip Augmentation Recovery
The extent of your recovery will depend largely on which lip augmentation method you choose. For lip fillers, only a topical anesthetic to numb the injection site is typically required, and recovery consists of mild discomfort for one to two days. The healing period for lip implants and fat transfer is longer and may involve several weeks of recovery. Lean more about the recovery process following lip augmentation.
Risks and Benefits of Lip Augmentation
Very few patients experience significant complications with lip enhancement, but like all surgical procedures, risks do exist. Bleeding, infection, and swelling are a possibility with any surgery. Side effects more closely associated with lip augmentation include lumping, scarring, numbness, cold sores, and asymmetrical lips.
