Who is a Good Candidate for Lip Augmentation?

Our Beverly Hills Lip Filler procedure may be suitable for those who wish to increase the size and poutiness of their lips. Most patients are good candidates for lip fillers. Dr. Ourian will review your health history during a thorough consultation and determine whether lip fillers are suitable for you.

How is a Beverly Hills Lip Augmentation Performed?

Lip filler procedures are relatively simple, though the process varies depending on whether the patient has chosen fat grafting or injectable fillers.

When performing lip injections using fillers, Dr. Ourian will first review the various product options with you and determine the formula which best suits your goals. The various brand names and formulas of injectable fillers are generally composed of hyaluronic acid, but the results, longevity, and price of the products vary slightly. After reviewing your goals for the procedure and selecting the correct product for you, a topical numbing cream may be applied. However, many products include lidocaine within their formula, so this step may not be necessary. After numbing has taken place, Dr. Ourian will then carefully and strategically inject the product to create the desired shape.

Fat grafting requires that a patient first have liposuction to collect fat from a donor site. This commonly includes the hips, flanks, abdomen, thighs, or upper arms. The fat is then purified, made into nano fat, and prepared for injection. After these steps, the procedure is quite similar to injections using fillers. Dr. Ourian will use a local anesthetic for the lips so you are comfortable through the procedure, then complete the fat transfer to the lips. The process generally takes an hour and a half to perform.
