Let’s Talk About Lip Augmentation

Let’s Talk About Lip Augmentation

Improvement and enlargement of lip contour is commonly desired. There are multiple ways to approach this goal. The treatment options include:

1. Hyaluronic acids: Juvederm™, Restylane®
2. Collagen: Cosmoplast®, Cosmoderm®, Evolence® Breeze
3. Lip implants: Gore-tex® (soft-form), Vera-fil* (new) AlloDerm
4. Fat grafting
5. Silicone*
6. Cymetra

Although collagen is the most commonly used method for lip augmentation, no single approach has become standard. Each option has its advantages and disadvantages.
