Lip Implants  Although less common, lip implants can provide a more permanent lip augmentation. During surgery, Dr. Jaibaji would place a synthetic implant within the lips. These small implants are made of GORE-TEX® or other materials. Surgical lip augmentations can be performed under local or general anesthesia. The doctor makes a small incision inside your mouth where a scar will not show. Through this incision, the doctor is able to place the surgical implant. Once the implant is in place, the incision will be closed.

The bruising and swelling typically subside within two weeks of surgery. Once the swelling subsides, you can appreciate the results of your surgical lip augmentation.

Dr. Jaibaji did an excellent job of making me feel comfortable throughout the process. His staff was also exceptional. They treated me as if I was the most important patient they’d encountered all day.

What is the technique of filler injection?

Lip augmentation can also be performed using collagen injections, fat transfer, or liquid silicone. Injectable Fillers  If you want a lip enhancement with immediate results and no downtime, non-surgical lip augmentation may be right for you. Fillers plump up the lips and provide the full, sexy lips that you desire. Lip enhancement is an excellent choice for women whose lips have gotten thinner with age, or those who were simply born with thin lips. During your appointment, the doctor injects filler into specific areas of the lips. Extra care is taken to maintain the natural lines and borders of your lips.Maintaining the natural borders of your lips allows you to have natural-looking plump lips. Before performing the injections, the doctor may use a numbing cream or dental block to help reduce your discomfort. Your results will depend on the type of filler used. The results of each filler last a different length of time. The results of hyaluronic acid injections last 8-12 months. Following a non-surgical lip augmentation, some patients report minor bruising and swelling, which subsides in a few days.
