Lip Augmentation & Lip Lift in Bellevue, WA
Lip augmentation in Bellevue enhances lip fullness and shape with fillers, fat, or a surgical lip lift.
Quick answer
Lip enhancement improves the fullness, shape, and proportion of the lips — with dermal fillers for a non-surgical boost, fat transfer for natural lasting volume, or a surgical lip lift that shortens the space between nose and lip for a more youthful, defined upper lip.
Lips lose volume and lengthen with age. Dr. Day offers the full range of enhancement: hyaluronic-acid fillers for an immediate, adjustable result; fat transfer for natural, longer-lasting volume; and the surgical lip lift, which raises the upper lip to show more of the pink lip and create a permanently more youthful proportion.
Because Dr. Day performs both injectable and surgical options, he can recommend the approach that truly fits your anatomy rather than a one-size-fits-all treatment.
Is Lip Augmentation & Lip Lift right for you?
You may be a good candidate if:
- ✦
You want fuller, more defined lips
- ✦
Your upper lip has lengthened or thinned with age
- ✦
You want either a temporary or permanent option
- ✦
You want a surgeon who offers both filler and surgery
Recovery
Fillers have essentially no downtime; a surgical lip lift heals over about a week with a discreet incision under the nose.
