A plump pout can be seen as an icon of sensuality. For many years women and men have tried all sorts of devices, non-surgical treatment, surgery, facial rejuvenation, over the counter plumping products and massage therapies to achieve pucker perfection – mostly with disappointing results. Modern-day non-surgical lip augmentation uses gel-like products to enhance, and as required, restructure the lips.
The ‘ideal’ lips can be viewed as full, natural-looking, well-defined, having a strong Cupid’s bow (the V-shaped area of the upper lip). Features such as the lip border, balance between the top and bottom lip, and symmetry, are each an essential element for achieving luscious lips. In addition, it may also be appealing when the rich ridges connecting the upper lip to the nose (philtra columns) provide a well-defined curve.
Younger women are often wanting fuller lips to enhance their natural features and to feel more sensuous and feminine. Over time, a loss of the lip volume can occur and replacing diminished lip volume.
There are many types of products used to enhance the lips that are comprised of complex sugar molecules (found naturally throughout the body), and which bind with water to support the skin up, create volume and help reduce creases.
At Bella Plastic Surgery, we use high quality-based products to create soft, natural looking and well-defined lips. High quality products augment the natural contours of the lips and add fullness that looks and feels natural.
The products used for lip augmentation can also be used to fill deep creases, grooves, and lines, add volume to cheeks, and even smooth out lumps and bumps on the nose.
The Kiss Me Lip Augmentation Treatment is well tolerated with the use of topical and/or local anaesthetic which is administered prior to treatment.

These products are made from complex sugar molecules that naturally occur in your body and bind with water to support your skin and increase volume.
At Bella Plastic Surgery, we use only the highest quality products to achieve long-lasting results.
