Is it worth it to get lip implants for a larger mouth and lips?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fillers or Fat Graft: Hyaluronic Acid fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane (dermal fillers) temporarily plump the lips and can last approximately 6 months to a year, depending on the filler. Fat grafts are obtained from a patient's own fat through liposuctioning areas such as inner thighs or abdomen and carefully injecting it into the lips. Fat grafts can last for months and sometimes years, though this depends on the individual.
