Lip augmentation in Atlanta

NON-SURGICAL LIP AUGMENTATION

The Best in Atlanta

Lips are among the most sensual elements of facial beauty. The appearance of your lips – their shape, volume, proportions, and color, all can have a profound effect on the overall perception of your facial features. In the hands of a masterful injector, lip fillers can have a dramatic effect. Dr. Peter Abramson is your source for the transformative non-surgical lip augmentation.

Plump, Beautiful, Yet Natural Looking Lips Can Be Yours!

Full and vivacious lips have always been recognized as aesthetically important features. They are a central part of the face that everyone recognizes in daily social interactions. Some of us, however, are born with thin, ill-defined lips, or our lips lose their fullness with age. But the appearance of our lips is now within our control. Fine lines and wrinkles, thin lips and a drooping corner of the mouth are all areas that can be aided with injectable fillers.

Using the most modern procedures, techniques and instruments, Dr. Peter Abramson successfully perform lip augmentation procedures that work. Lip augmentations can also be performed in combination with other facial procedures such as rhinoplasty, cheek augmentation, or chin augmentation to ensure the most balanced look and satisfying results possible!

Types of Fillers Used for Lip Augmentation

Injectable Fillers: Two fillers are specifically formulated for the most natural results for lips. Volbella® is a dermal filler used to define lips and reduce fine wrinkles around the lips, made from hyaluronic acid. Dr. Peter Abramson takes advantage of Volbellas’s smaller particle size to treat the area of the lips without bulky or puffy looking results. Restylane® Silk is an FDA approved hyaluronic acid cosmetic filler specifically created to add volume and fullness to the lips and erase vertical lines around the lips. The special viscosity of Restylane® Silk allows each injection substance to connect to the adjacent one, providing a smooth result that looks natural. Restylane® Silk is safe and effective and does not require allergy testing prior to use. Learn more+
Fat Transfer: Fat is harvested from another location on a patient’s body, purified, and then injected into the lips to achieve a full voluminous look. Facial fat transfer is a safe procedure that provides natural, long lasting results. Learn More+
Lip Advancement (Lip Shortening/Lip Lift): is a surgical procedure used to lift and enhance the upper lip, and can also be used to reshape the lower lip. Lip advancement can be a very satisfying procedure for those with thin lips due to genetics or aging and can produce a fuller, more well-defined set of lips permanently!

Lip Filler Specialist

Dr. Abramson will meet with each patient for a comprehensive appointment to discuss the lip filler treatment. A short exam of the lips will be performed during this consultation. Patients will voice their ideal aesthetic for the lip injection procedure and discuss the procedure process with Dr. Abramson. The procedure and preparation instructions will be explained to the patient to ensure a seamless experience. Patients should avoid certain medications and smoking prior to the lip filler treatment to avoid any complications. This procedure can be done alone or combined with other procedures to address additional concerns.

Lip Fillers Can Give You Confidence

Beautifully shaped, perfectly plumped lips can transform and rejuvenate your looks. With the advent of the dermal fillers, lip augmentation has become one of the mainstays of facial rejuvenation. Hyaluronic acid-containing lip fillers such as Juvederm, Belotero, Restylane, are highly efficient and versatile substances for temporary re-contouring, volumizing, re-shaping and hydrating of the lips.

Aftercare and Recovery

Swelling of the lips is common following lip injections, and should subside within a few days.

This all diminishes over time. The swelling usually subsides within 7-10 days and numbness may last for up to 4-6 weeks. To assist in the recovery process, Dr. Abramson suggests that patients do the following:

Avoid direct sunlight
Go on a liquid diet for a day or two
Use ice packs to help reduce swelling and manage discomfort
