LIP ENLARGEMENT (Lip Augmentation)

Fat Grafting

This is a more permanent technique and, again, is very safe and well-tolerated. The worst part about this operation is that in order to be effective, it has to be significantly overcorrected at the time of the procedure. As much as 50 or 60 percent overcorrection will be accomplished because at least 75-80 percent of the fat that is injected will be absorbed within the first 4-6 weeks. To obtain the best result, 2 or 3 treatments might be necessary. The fat is usually removed from the inner knee area or from the hip area in undesirable bulges.
