Fat Transfer Lip Augmentation Metairie, LA | New Orleans Plastic Surgery with Michelle Manning Eagan MD

Understanding Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation offers a solution for individuals with thin lips or age-related volume loss. By utilizing innovative fat transfer techniques, patients can achieve fuller, more shapely lips with natural-looking results that can last for years.

Benefits of Lip Augmentation

• Enhanced facial aesthetics
• Increased self-confidence
• Personalized treatment approach
• Long-lasting, natural results

Ideal Candidates for Lip Enhancement

Candidates for lip augmentation typically include individuals who:

• Have naturally thin lips
• Experience age-related volume loss
• Desire improved facial symmetry
• Are in good overall health

Fat Transfer Lip Augmentation Procedure

The fat transfer lip augmentation procedure involves extracting fat from areas like the stomach, hips, or thighs through liposuction. The harvested fat is then purified and carefully injected into the lips to achieve the desired fullness.

Procedure Details

• Fat extraction via liposuction
• Fat purification using centrifuge
• Precise injection into lip areas
• Overfilling to account for potential fat reabsorption

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect mild tenderness and sensitivity following the procedure. Results typically last 6-12 months, with potential for touch-up treatments to maintain desired volume.
