Now more than ever, people are craving plump, gorgeous lips. Whether genetics or age has given you thin lips, you can increase their volume at our Tallahassee, FL, plastic surgery practice’s medical spa. Just like any other area of the face and body, our lips can reveal our age by appearing thinner and more creased over time.
There are a variety of options to improve the appearance of your lips. Some of them add volume while others reduce fine lines and wrinkles. This may include injections with dermal fillers, such as Restylane®, Restylane Silk, Restylane Kysse, Belotero, JUVÉDERM®, or Volbella. Other options include fat injections or facial implants to permanently alter the appearance of your lips. Our physician assistant or our board-certified plastic surgeons have the expertise required to envision the right solution for you. To determine the best choice, discuss your needs with your practitioner.
Most people recover from injections within a day or two. There is typically some swelling and sometimes minimal bruising. If you undergo surgical implants or grafts, it may be two weeks before you are feeling comfortable.
A discussion with either our physician assistant or one of our board-certified plastic surgeons is the first step toward full, sensual lips. Please call Southeastern Plastic Surgery, P.A., located in Tallahassee, FL at (850) 219-2000 or contact our cosmetic coordinator today for a private consultation with our expert injector, Kristen Snyder Costa, PA-C, or one of our board-certified physicians, Dr. Ben Kirbo, Dr. Laurence Rosenberg and Dr. Chris DeRosier.
I have treated myself to something I have wanted since I was a teenager – and that was a really long time ago! I couldn’t be happier with my new lips, thanks to Kristen. I had looked at a lot of before and after pics on the Internet, and the sad thing is, I would have been happy with most of the “befores.” That’s just how deficient I was in that area! Now I can put lipstick on, and you can actually see it! I can smile, and my lips don’t disappear inside my head! My husband was rather freaked at the prospect, because “I married you the way you are” and “I like your lips.” But I didn’t! I chose the Juvederm, because it lasts longer than the Restylane. Kristen did a beautiful job of enhancing my lips, while keeping the look natural. Oh, by the way, hubby is happy with the results. He calls me “Lips” now. I don’t know what took me so long!
