How long do lip augmentation results last?
The longevity of lip augmentation results depends on the method used. Injectable fillers typically last between 6 to 12 months, after which additional treatments are required to maintain the results. Fat transfer results can last longer, but some of the transferred fat may be reabsorbed by the body over time. Lip implants provide a permanent solution but are less commonly chosen due to their invasive nature.
Is lip augmentation a painful procedure?
Pain and discomfort levels vary depending on the lip augmentation technique. Injectable fillers often include lidocaine, a numbing agent, to minimize discomfort. Patients may experience mild discomfort and swelling post-procedure, which can be managed with ice packs and over-the-counter pain medication. Surgical options like fat transfer and implants may involve more discomfort and a longer recovery period.
Are there any age restrictions for lip augmentation?
