Many of us dream of fuller lips and a mouth that looks more kissable. Lip augmentation is a popular treatment for those who want to improve the shape and volume of their lips and get long-lasting results. Lip augmentation can be performed in several different ways and it is not always easy to know what is suitable. How do fillers work and what is the difference between fillers and other methods like fat grafting? Here we look at the differences, benefits and costs of the different options.

Fillers - The most popular method to enlarge lips

The most common method of enlarging the lips is fillers. Fillers are a quick and non-surgical solution that gives immediate results and does not require a long recovery time. In addition, fillers are made from hyaluronic acid, which is a substance found naturally in the body. The treatment involves injecting a small amount of filler into the lips to create volume and fullness. The filler can be adjusted to suit your preferences and you choose whether you want a subtle change or more dramatic results.

The price of lip augmentation with fillers varies depending on the amount of filler needed. At Estetikcentrum you can expect to pay from around 2795 sek and upwards depending on the size of the treatment area and the amount of filler needed to achieve the result you want. Pst! You do know that you get pain relief if you need it!

Lip augmentation with own fat gives permanent results

If you're looking for a longer-lasting result than fillers can offer, lip augmentation with your own fat may be more suitable for you. This method involves taking fat from an area of your body. This could be your stomach or inner thighs, for example, and is then injected into your lips. Because it uses the body's own fat cells, the results are more permanent than fillers. Plus, you don't have to worry about having to repeat the treatment.

The price of enlarging lips with your own fat is higher than for fillers with prices starting at around 29,900 sek for the whole treatment. It is also a more extensive procedure requiring around 4-6 hours in the clinic. However, for those looking for long-lasting results, this is a great solution.

Differences between fillers and fat grafting

When considering different options for lip augmentation, it is important to understand the differences between fillers and other methods, such as fat grafting.

Fillers

• Fast treatment in only 30-60 minutes
• Results that are immediately visible
• Lasts about 6-12 months before refilling
• No recovery time

Fat grafting (lip augmentation with own fat)

• More extensive procedures (4-6 hours)

• Requires the removal of fat from another part of the body
• Higher cost
• More natural results and smoother lips
• Longer recovery time
