Implants, Fat Transfers, and Fillers
Western cultures today more and more look to a woman’s lips as a sign of sensuality and beauty. As a result, more and more women are choosing to augment their lips by making them fuller, defining the lip line and even reducing lines and wrinkles around the mouth.
Women who have naturally thin lips are opting for lip augmentation in Las Vegas. Our lips lose volume gradually as we age, so even women with naturally full lips are looking to lip augmentation to restore their lips’ youthful appearance.

Different Types of Lip Enhancement Procedures

You and Dr. Smith will discuss your goals, and he will take into consideration your lips’ present condition as the two of you decide together which procedure is best.
You may opt to have just your upper or your lower lip augmented, or both.
Fat Transfers
A fat transfer procedure is considered to be a temporary lip augmentation procedure, although it can be a good middle-of-the-road option between temporary and long-lasting augmentation.
A fat transfer procedure involves taking fat from one area of your body (such as your abdomen or thighs) and then injecting it into your lips. A fat transfer lip augmentation surgery can last several years or longer.
The fat transfer procedure is great for those who are uneasy about injecting a foreign substance into their lips (remember that a fat transfer is injecting your body’s own fat into your lips).
Some patients find that they need a second or even third fat transfer injection about six months after the first to achieve the results they desire.
Some of the fat will be reabsorbed by your body, so your lips will become less full over time, but they should remain fuller than they were before the procedure.
Temporary Fillers
Temporary fillers are just that: temporary. Fillers tend to last for about three to six months and will require that you visit our Chic la Vie Med Spa regularly if you wish to maintain fullness in your lips.
