LIP AUGMENTATION ST. LOUIS, MO | C.B. BOSWELL, MD, FACS

UNDERSTANDING LIP AUGMENTATION TECHNIQUES

Lip augmentation is a cosmetic procedure designed to create fuller,
more defined lips by enhancing the vermillion border and reducing fine
wrinkles around the mouth. Patients seek this treatment to either
achieve fuller lips or restore the volume lost with aging.

INJECTABLE FILLER OPTIONS

C.B. Boswell, MD, FACS offers multiple lip augmentation techniques
using advanced injectable materials, including:

 	* Natural collagen fillers
	* Synthetic biocompatible materials like HylaForm and Restylane
	* Patient's own fat transfer

PROCEDURE CHARACTERISTICS

Tissue filler injections are performed in-office with minimal
downtime. Patients may experience temporary side effects such as mild
swelling, redness, or slight itching. Most individuals can resume
normal activities immediately following the procedure.

EXPECTED RESULTS AND RECOVERY

Injection results vary depending on the chosen material. Restylane
typically shows reduced swelling within 1-2 days, while fat transfer
might require up to one week for complete resolution of initial
swelling.

LIP LIFT ST. LOUIS, MO | NAYAK PLASTIC SURGERY

UNDERSTANDING THE LIP LIFT PROCEDURE

A lip lift is a specialized surgical technique designed to shorten the
distance between the nose base and the upper lip's vermillion border.
As facial aging progresses, the upper lip can elongate, creating an
aged and less balanced facial appearance.

KEY BENEFITS OF LIP LIFT SURGERY

 	* Reduces upper lip length
	* Enhances lip proportion
	* Increases upper tooth visibility when smiling
	* Creates a more youthful mouth contour

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE AND APPROACH

The procedure involves removing a carefully measured strip of skin
beneath the nose and nostrils. By meticulously closing the resulting
gap, surgeons lift the lip, creating a more refined and rejuvenated
appearance.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR LIP LIFT

Patients aged 45 and older with light, fair skin are typically the
best candidates. The procedure is particularly effective for
individuals experiencing significant upper lip elongation or those
seeking more permanent lip enhancement compared to temporary fillers.

PROCEDURE DETAILS AND EXPECTATIONS

Lip lift surgery can be performed under local anesthesia as a
standalone procedure or in combination with other facial rejuvenation
treatments like facelifts. The central portion of the upper lip
experiences the most dramatic improvement, with minimal changes toward
the lip corners.

RECOVERY AND RESULTS

Sutures are typically removed after one week, and patients can usually
conceal the incision line with makeup at that point. Full healing and
final results may take several months to manifest, with results
lasting many years.

COMPARING LIP LIFT TO LIP FILLERS

Unlike lip fillers that primarily add volume, a lip lift addresses
structural changes in lip proportion. When the upper lip has
significantly lengthened, fillers may provide limited improvement,
making a surgical lip lift a more comprehensive solution.
