What you need to know about Lip Augmentation in New York City
Also known as a Lip Enhancement, Lip Augmentation is a surgical procedure aimed at improving the fullness and appearance of the lips by enlarging them. There are two main types of lip augmentation: filler injections and implants. Simple filler injections can be used for short-term effects, whilst implants offer a more long-term solution to less defined or naturally thin lips.
Today, lip filler is the more popular type. Whether you want fuller lips with more volume or to balance your lip shape, dermal fillers can help you get the lips you've always wanted. If you are worried about lines around the lip area and notice your lipstick ‘bleeding’ into these lines, often having lip filler injected can help to soften these fine lines as well.
It's important to have realistic expectations about the outcome. Enhanced lips may make your lips plumper and fuller, but you will still be you when you walk out of the doctor's office. Click the image to see more Before and After photos.
Your doctor can discuss with you the pros and cons of your lip augmentation options and help you decide which technique or product is best for you.
What's the Recovery Time for Lip Augmentation Procedures in New York City?
For several hours after the procedure, your lips will be numb. You will need a minimum of three days off from work. You should not do any exercise for a few days after filler injections and for a few weeks after lip implants. In general, your recovery can take up to two weeks before you are allowed to go back to your normal routine.
What's the Success Rate of Lip Augmentation Procedures in New York City?
Lip augmentation, particularly lip fillers, has a high success rate. Many patients have said that the procedure has boosted their self-image and self-confidence. Remember that you will need to undergo another lip filler injection after six to eight months, or depending on the case, your lip filler may also last for 9 to 12 months. There are several side effects, complications, and risks to be aware of before you undergo lip augmentation.
Side effects of fillers that should only last a few days:
- Bleeding from the injections sites
- Swelling and bruising
- Reactivation of cold sores or fever blisters
- Redness at the site of injections.
If the symptoms above do not subside after a few days, you need to call your doctor. There are also more serious side effects or risks, such as severe and prolonged swelling, lip asymmetry, lumps in the lips, ulceration, allergic reaction, tissue loss, and infection. Call your doctor immediately if you experience any of those symptoms.
