Question:
My lips are thin, pale, and barely there if I don’t wear lipstick. Are there any injectables that will plump up my lips as well as improve my lip color so they are a more defining feature?
Answer:
There are several injectable available to plump up your lips. I prefer to stay with the hyaluronic acid fillers such as, Restylane and Juvederm to perform these procedures. I would caution you that the color of your lips will and should not change with the use of dermal fillers. I am not really a fan of tattooing of the lips as your lips will change as you age and the tattooing will not, but this is the only non-surgical way to permanently change the color of your lips.
