Woman with beautiful full lips after lip augmentation procedure.

Lip Dermal Fat Grafting

Soft, full lips enhance your smile and create an attractive balance to your facial features. When the lips are too thin due to genetics or aging, it can detract from the beauty of your mouth. Lip augmentation can be performed with dermal filler injections, but this only temporarily gives your lips the fullness you desire. A long-lasting, natural option is lip dermal fat grafting which is available at LM Medical NYC in Manhattan.

Fuller lips are a common request Dr. Lesley Rabach, renowned expert facial surgeon, hears from our patients. Individuals of all ages desire a lip augmentation to add volume to their lips. Some people are born with thinner, flatter lips and want to add more fullness to their lips for a more sensuous appearance. Older patients often want to restore the youthful volume that is lost as fat dissipates under skin with age. Dermal fat grafting can add natural fat harvested from another area of the body to the lips, creating the desired shape and plumpness.

Lip Plumping and Augmentation

Fat grafting for lip augmentations has benefits over filler injections. While facial fillers using hyaluronic acid can offer quick, effective results, the fullness does not last. With lip dermal fat grafting, your own fat is added to your lips. It feels and looks natural, and we can harvest the fat from various areas on your body, sterilize the fat and add it under the skin of the lips. Fat grafting lip augmentation results in long-lasting, full lips that do not shrink in size or need additional treatments a few months down the road.

If you want a permanent lip augmentation, consider the benefits of lip dermal fat grafting. To learn more about lip augmentation and enhancements, contact us at LM Medical NYC in Greenwich Village and the Upper Was Side today to book your appointment. We can schedule a personal consultation with Dr. Lesley, our double board certified facial plastic surgeon who specializes in lip augmentation.

  • Dr. Morgan Rabach and her staff provide top tier care and excellent service. Dr. Rabach is well-versed in the latest research. She made lots of time to discuss my dermatological history (what’s worked, what hasn’t worked, what hasn’t been tried) and all the available treatments to find the best path forward. She didn’t settle - pushing to make sure I got the best results possible. Would recommend without any reservations!

  • The staff are incredibly friendly and so helpful. The wait times are very short, the space is clean and modern, and they're very quick to respond to questions over the phone or email. I needed a detailed receipt for my insurance and they gave me two different versions until my insurance was satisfied. The doctors are friendly, laid back, and really listen which is awesome. Would highly recommend!!
