Lip implants are a method used to enhance the size of a person’s lips, a plumper fuller appearance is the desired effect. The procedure is often performed as a result of fat loss from the lips which occurs as part of the ageing process.
• Lip implants are a permanent form of lip enhancement unlike most of the fillers which are injected into the lips as they are slowly absorbed into the body.
• Lip implants can be made of synthetic materials or of fat removed from elsewhere in your body and used to make the implant.
• A local anaesthetic is firstly administered then small incisions are made in the lips so that the surgeon may place the implant into position.
• The incisions will then be sewn up often with dissolvable stitches so no further visits to the clinic are required.
• After surgery you should expect the lips to be swollen and painful for a few weeks. In the UK lip implants are expensive, around £3000 compared to in the USA where they are a mere £1000 in comparison. The main risk associated with lip implants is the possibility of movement of the implant, if this happens further surgery is required to correct the movement.
