Chicago Lip Augmentation

A lip augmentation can enhance your lips, making thin lips fuller and more proportionate, or medium sized lips poutier.

The way the procedure is performed can depend on your goals. To increase lips to a more appropriate size and fill them out, implants can be used. Subtle incisions are strategically made at the corners of the mouth, and tubular implants inserted. The scars will not be visible. The implant is stationary, only moving when the patient decides to reverse the procedure. Recovery time, involving some minor swelling and aching, is usually just a couple days.

The other lip augmentation option, intending for simply plumping lips or smooth lip wrinkles, is collagen or fat injections. This is a temporary procedure, as the natural injectible substance will be eventually, and safely, absorbed by the body.
