INDICATIONS

Desire for larger or fuller lips.

INTENDED RESULTS

To create permanently larger lips without the need for repetitive procedures - as would be needed with dermal fillers or fat transfer (fat grafts).

PROCEDURE DECRIPTIONS

The procedure is done in the office and takes only 30 minutes. The lip is numbed and a tiny incision is made in the corner. The implant is threaded in and incisions are stitched with disolvable sutures. The Perma Facial Lip Implant is made of a soft, solid silicone elastomer. It is a naturally contoured implant with a smooth, non-porous surface. It cannot rupture or deflate, and may be removed at any time.

The Perma Facial Lip implant is a FDA approved device designed for tissue augmentation of the face, used in the lip(s). There are 3 different size implants to insure patients get the look they want.

If patients have had temporary lip filler injections in the past, Dr.Salzman recommends waiting 6 months from their last treatment to have the implant(s) placed.

RECUPERATION AND HEALING

Initial swelling is usually moderate and gradually disappears over one week. Discomfort is easily controlled with oral medications.

Patients follow a liquid diet for 24 hours post procedure, then have a soft food diet for one week. There should be limited movement of the mouth for up to one week. Use of a drinking straw can be resumed in one week. Patients need to keep their lips lubricated while healing.

OTHER OPTIONS

Other procedures that can enhance the lips are Temporary Injectable Dermal Fillers, Fat Transfers or a Lip Lift.

Additional procedures that will enhance the result are: Ageless Mini Face Lift, Facelift, LiteShape Laser Liposuction to the neck, Rhinoplasty, Cheek Implants, Eyelid Lift, and Brow Lift.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE LIPS

Lip enhancement techniques may be separated into two kinds: temporary and permanent. Temporary techniques require the use of injectable fillers repeated every 6-9 months to maintain their appearance. Permanent techniques generally involve the use of injectable gel, fat or implants.

As a result of limitations associated with existing lip enhancement techniques, extensive research has led to the creation and development of the Perm Facial Implant™, a revolutionary new implant used for lip enhancement.

For lips, Perma Facial Implant™ is unlike anything we've seen. The variety of patient needs that can be addressed with the Perma procedure is immense.

Among the most remarkable aspects of these lips are their natural appearance and ease with which they can be replaced for another size or removed altogether. Never before has a product made for this use offered so many exceptional qualities:

• Natural appearance
• Soft silicone/but cannot rupture, deflate or degrade over time
• Routine procedure performed under local anesthetic
• Resistant to tissue "in growth"
• Permanent, but easily replaceable or reovable
• Does not restrict lip movement
• FDA approved
