LIP REDUCTION CHICAGO, IL | DR. OMOTARA SULYMAN-SCOTT, MD

UNDERSTANDING LIP REDUCTION SURGERY

Lip reduction is a specialized surgical procedure designed to decrease
the volume of the upper or lower lip, creating better facial
proportions. For patients with naturally larger lips or those
dissatisfied with previous augmentation, this procedure offers a
precise solution to enhance facial harmony.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR LIP REDUCTION?

 	* Individuals with asymmetrical lips
	* Patients feeling their lips are disproportionately large
	* People with fistulas or pits in the lower lip
	* Those unsatisfied with previous lip augmentation results

PROCEDURE DETAILS

Dr. Sulyman-Scott performs lip reduction as an outpatient procedure
typically lasting less than one hour. Using local anesthesia, she
makes a horizontal incision inside the lip, carefully removing excess
fat and tissue to achieve the desired volume and proportion.

PROCEDURE SPECIFICATIONS

 	* Price starting at $2,500 per lip
	* Recovery time: Approximately 3 days
	* Discomfort level: Mild
	* Anesthesia options: Local, IV sedation, or general

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

two days. Initial recovery may involve mild bruising, swelling, and
discomfort, which can be managed with prescribed pain medication. The
results are long-lasting, with no additional surgeries typically
required.

Some ethnic groups, including those of African, Asian, and Hispanic
descent, tend to have naturally fuller lips. Dr. Sulyman-Scott

LIP AUGMENTATION CHICAGO, IL | MEADOWS PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING LIP AUGMENTATION

Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to increase lip
volume and enhance lip shape. Meadows Plastic Surgery offers multiple
techniques to achieve individualized results, including injectable
fillers, fat transfers, and surgical implants.

AUGMENTATION TECHNIQUES

 	* Injectable Hyaluronic Acid Fillers
	* Fat Transfer Procedures
	* Permanent Lip Implants

PROCEDURE OVERVIEW

Lip augmentation can be performed using various methods, depending on
the patient's aesthetic goals and preferences. Meadows Plastic Surgery

enhancement.

INJECTABLE FILLER APPROACH

Meadows Plastic Surgery utilizes advanced hyaluronic acid fillers to
provide temporary lip volume. The procedure typically involves minimal

For patients seeking permanent results, surgical lip implants offer a
long-lasting solution. These procedures are performed in a controlled
surgical environment with precise placement techniques.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Recovery time varies based on the chosen augmentation method.
Injectable treatments often require minimal downtime, while surgical
approaches may necessitate a more extended healing period.

LIP AUGMENTATION IN CHICAGO, IL: RESTORING YOUTHFUL LIP VOLUME

UNDERSTANDING LIP AGING AND ENHANCEMENT

As individuals age, lips naturally lose volume and elasticity due to
constant muscle movement, gravitational forces, and decreased collagen
production. The orbicularis oris muscle's continuous contractions
during daily activities like smiling, talking, and expressions
contribute to gradual lip deflation.

LIP AUGMENTATION PROCEDURE OPTIONS

Two primary lip enhancement techniques are available for patients
seeking rejuvenated lip appearance:

	* Injectable Lip Fillers (Non-Surgical) 

 	* Procedure Duration: 15-20 minutes
	* Cost Range: $500-$900 per treatment
	* Downtime: None

 	* Permalip Surgical Implants (Permanent Solution)

FDA-APPROVED DERMAL FILLER BRANDS

The Liposuction & Cosmetic Surgery Institute offers multiple
high-quality lip enhancement products:

 	* Volbella Juvederm with lidocaine
	* Juvederm Ultra and Ultra Plus
	* Restylane
	* Perlane
	* Belotero Balance

HYALURONIC ACID: THE PRIMARY INGREDIENT

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring complex polysaccharide found
in body tissues. These molecules bind water to create increased skin
volume and elasticity, effectively reducing wrinkles and facial fold
appearances.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR LIP ENHANCEMENT

Lip augmentation is suitable for individuals seeking:

 	* Younger, more voluminous lips
	* Correction of vertical "smokers lines"
	* Improved lip texture and definition

PROCEDURE HIGHLIGHTS

 	* Immediate visible results
	* Virtually pain-free with topical anesthesia
	* No significant recovery time
	* Results lasting up to one year

SAFETY AND EXPERTISE

The Liposuction & Cosmetic Surgery Institute emphasizes patient safety
by exclusively using FDA-approved dermal fillers and avoiding
unregulated silicone injections.

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

 	* Not recommended for pregnant individuals
	* Contraindicated for those with specific allergies
	* Avoid during active infections or cold sores

LIP LIFT IN CHICAGO, IL | NEIL FINE, MD, FACS

WHAT IS A LIP LIFT?

A lip lift is a minimally invasive plastic surgery procedure designed
to create a fuller, shapelier upper lip. As individuals age, the upper
lip tends to curl inward, creating an increased distance between the
nose and mouth. This surgical technique corrects the condition to
restore a more balanced and youthful facial appearance.

LIP LIFT SURGICAL PROCEDURE

During the consultation, the plastic surgery team will evaluate your
specific lip anatomy and determine the most appropriate approach. The
procedure typically follows the sub-nasal method and involves the
following key steps:

 	* Numbing the lip area with local anesthesia
	* Carefully removing skin beneath the nose
	* Closing the gap and repositioning the upper lip
	* Precise suturing to create a lifted, natural appearance

BENEFITS OF LIP LIFT SURGERY

seeking facial rejuvenation:
