Lip Enhancement

There are a variety of ways to achieve lip enhancement in the Beverly Hills area. Dr. Steven Svehlak wrote about some of these in his article titled, “The Perfect Lips: In Search of Size and Shape.” The key in good lip enhancement work consists of re-sizing and/or reshaping the upper and/or lower lips to improve their size in relation to the patient’s nose, teeth, and surrounding facial structures.

The common methods for lip enhancement are through injectable fillers, V-Y plasty, or lip implants. We do not do lip implants at this practice, since they tend to have an industry-wide reputation for problems: hardness, scar tissue, infections, and a fake look. In fact, we have lip enhancement patients who come in to see us to remove their lip implants quite often, which they had put in elsewhere.
