We’ve all seen the woman who gobs on a thick, burgundy-colored, “ring around the nude lips” liner. And the woman who wastes hundreds of dollars trying cosmetic products that swear up and down to “make lips sexier and plumper in just five minutes,” but only leave lips feeling slightly tingly and abnormally greasy. Of course, you don’t want to be the woman who has apparently been chased down and stung by an entire hive of African Killer Bees on both her bottom and upper lips. Fear not ladies… a happy (and tasteful) medium does exist for those seeking plastic surgery to make lips fuller on a more permanent level.

Okay, okay…I have to admit that I’ve been guilty of being one of “those women” mentioned above. After scouring the internet, searching for the #1 alternative to surgical lip augmentation, I found myself spending $50+ for a tube of goop better known as lip plumping lip gloss. I could hardly make it out of Sephora without trying on my new and expensive lip gloss. After applying it, I impulsively checked my reflection every 30 seconds awaiting to see my lips magically turn into Angelina Jolie’s. No such luck.

When it comes to enhancing your lip beauty, over-the-counter products leave not only your lips but also your wallet quite disappointed. If you are seeking a noticeable difference in lip size, then a lip augmentation through a skilled plastic surgeon is the way to go. Lip augmentation options generally fall into two categories: injections or implants. Lip injections (such as collagen or Juvéderm) are a less permanent way to provide immediate and noticeable results. Lip implants are the better option for those seeking a more drastic and permanent look. Although each option has its own benefits, Dr. Williamson can help you decide which option is best for you.
