Lip Augmentation in Plano, TX | Richard Y. Ha, MD

Understanding Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation is a sophisticated cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the shape, volume, and aesthetic appeal of the lips. More women are exploring surgical and non-surgical methods to accentuate this prominent facial feature, recognizing that lips play a crucial role in facial expression and personal aesthetics.

Lip Anatomy and Aesthetics

The lips have intricate anatomical relationships that contribute to facial beauty. The upper lip typically projects slightly forward and features a distinctive "bow" with a central dimple. A full upper lip with minimal fine wrinkles signifies youth and attractiveness, particularly for women seeking a subtle "pout" effect.

Lip Augmentation Techniques

Multiple methods exist for lip enhancement, each with unique characteristics and duration:

• Restylane: 6-9 months duration
• Radiesse: 1-2 years effectiveness
• Collagen: 3 months maintenance
• Alloderm: 3-9 months result
• Fat Transfer: Approximately 50% permanent result
