The 13 Causes of Swollen Lips (You Should Definetly Be Aware Of)

Lips Augmentation

Nowadays, people have become more open to patronizing surgeries and physical enhancements, and it has become a part of the lifestyle of many famous people from countries all over the world. One of the most common cosmetic operations is lip augmentation. It is a procedure done by adding more volume to thin lips to preserve and display a youthful appearance. This procedure has several types: lip lifts, fillers, fat transfers, and implants. 

Fat grafting is done by injecting fats from different parts of the body onto the lips. Fillers (also called dermal fillers), on the other hand, are injected around the mouth and contain hyaluronic acid, a substance the body naturally produces. Lip implants are put in by making a small incision in the corners of the mouth before filling them in. Additionally, lip lifts are done by cutting and removing excess skin between the upper lip and the nose, pulling it upwards. Recovery would usually take weeks or months. These procedures last six months to several years; some are removable, while others are permanent. 

Furthermore, there are health risks that could complicate the operation. For example, some experience allergic reactions manifested through itching; some lips get bruised, scarred, infected, or swell badly.
