To create the look of sexy, luscious lips, lip augmentation has become a trendy cosmetic procedure, and the standards of beauty in the new century have also changed.
The cherry-small mouth, once a symbol of beauty for Eastern women, is no longer as popular, and sensuous, full lips have become the new goal for young girls in this generation.
In recent years, while there are certainly some girls who want to reduce their fuller lips, the proportion of those seeking lip augmentation has increased significantly. It's clear that traditional standards of beauty are truly being overturned.
For Asians, who tend to have broader faces, fuller lips can be quite attractive. However, before deciding on lip augmentation, it’s best to discuss overall aesthetic considerations with a doctor. Otherwise, an ill-suited lip shape may not enhance one's beauty.
Currently, most requests for lip augmentation come from women aged 20 to 35. The process is simple and can be done through collagen or autologous fat injections. Nowadays, injecting autologous fat is more commonly used. Collagen has an extremely high absorption rate in the body and will almost completely disappear over time, in addition to being very expensive. On the other hand, autologous fat is entirely different. A small amount of fat can be extracted from any part of the body and injected into the lips, where about 50% of the fat will survive.
With autologous fat lip augmentation, after a year, additional minor transplants can be performed based on the patient's needs to compensate for the absorbed fat. Lip augmentation involves injecting autologous fat from the inner side of the lips. If you want a more defined lip line, collagen can be injected along the lip line.
