You may be contemplating a lip injection if you think it will give you more confidence in your appearance, especially if you think your lips are too thin for your face. Bear in mind that changing the shape of your lips definitely modifies your appearance, so make sure this is something you are sure you want to do. In other words, it’s not a good idea to sign up for lip injections in Norfolk, VA, to please another person or to try to make your image reflect that of someone you idolize. A lip augmentation makes your lips plumper and fuller. The procedure works best on those who do not smoke and who are in general good health.
You want to be able to trust the person who is providing the injection and who is highly qualified at giving the injection. It’s important to find the right provider who is experienced at performing lip augmentation, and who may include any of the following:

The newest lip-injection options are considered safe and longer lasting than other common dermal fillers. The procedure is fairly quick with little-to-no downtime. Your lips will be numbed by a topical agent to ease any discomfort. Very fine needles are then used to inject your lips. After your injection, ice is provided to ease discomfort and reduce swelling. It is advised that no pressure be put on the treated area.
