Goals & Balance

What It Can Improve

Lip augmentation isn’t only about size. It’s about restoring proportion to the face — defining the vermilion border, supporting the cupid’s bow, and improving symmetry.

Thin or flattened lips
Loss of volume with age
Asymmetry between upper and lower lip
Softening fine lines around the mouth
Enhancing definition without “duck lip” volume

The Herman Approach

Refined, Not Inflated

Every treatment is built around facial harmony and how your lips move when you speak and smile. We design volume in layers, not chunks — so results look natural in every angle.

Measure

We map proportions of the upper vs. lower lip and your natural resting shape.

Shape

Contours are refined first — cupid’s bow, pillars, and borders — before adding volume.

Soften

Final touches prioritize hydration, flexibility, and a smooth transition to surrounding skin.

Treatment Options

How We Augment Lips

Hyaluronic Acid Fillers

The most common approach for patients seeking more definition or gentle fullness. Results are immediate, adjustable, and feel soft when placed correctly.

Surgical Lip Lift

Ideal when the upper lip lengthens with age. A subtle lift reveals more pink lip and restores youthful curvature without adding bulk.

Fat Transfer

Uses your own purified fat to create long-lasting, natural volume. Best for patients who want a permanent solution and have suitable donor fat.

Perioral Rejuvenation

For fine lines or texture around the mouth, we may combine filler with resurfacing to polish the entire lip area.

Is This Right For You?

Candidacy

Lip augmentation is personalized — the “right” approach depends as much on anatomy as on taste.

Subtle Enhancement

Perfect if you want a hydrated, smoother lip with minimal size change.

Symmetry

Great for improving imbalance between upper/lower lip or left/right shape.

Volume Restoration

Ideal if natural volume has thinned over time and you miss your former shape.

Structural Lift

Best when the philtrum lengthens and the upper lip “rolls in” with aging.

Downtime & Healing

Recovery Timeline

Most patients return to normal activity quickly. Swelling resolves fast and results settle into a soft, natural look.

○

First 48 Hours

Expect mild swelling and tenderness. Ice packs and hydration help significantly.

○ ○

Days 3–7

Swelling drops quickly. Shape becomes clearer; most feel social-ready at this stage.

○ ○ ○

Weeks 2+

Final refinement appears. Fillers soften and integrate; surgical options continue to mature.

Common Questions

Lip Augmentation FAQ

Will it look natural?

That’s the goal. We prioritize shape first and volume second, so lips stay proportional and move naturally when you speak and smile.

How long do fillers last?

Most hyaluronic acid fillers last 6–12 months depending on metabolism and product choice. Many patients do a small refresh once or twice per year.

Does it hurt?

We use topical anesthetic and (when appropriate) dental block for comfort. Most patients describe pressure more than pain.

Can you fix old filler or asymmetry?

Yes. We can dissolve or rebalance previous filler and rebuild shape conservatively.
