Question:
My lips need help! They are thin and extremely ugly. Could you please give me some details about the lip enhancement procedures that you offer?

Answer:
We offer injectable fillers for lip enhancement or lip implants utilizing the Permalip implant.  The injectable fillers, Juvederm or Restylane are usually used.  This is a 15 minute procedure and has some minor bruising and swelling involved.  The results usually last about 6 months.  The Permalip procedure is performed in the office with oral sedation and local anesthetic. It also takes about 30 minutes.  There is a little more tenderness and swelling, but it is usually resolved in about 4-5 days.
