Treatment: Lip Enhancement

What is lip rejuvenation and enhancement?

Lips reduce in size and definition with age due to the loss of volume. As well, changes in the face that cause the downturned corners of the mouth also can be associated with the appearance of the lips. Lines above the lip begin to appear.

Most of the changes can be corrected and if you wish the lips can be enhanced in size and shape- we call this lip enhancement. Lip enhancement or reshaping the lips to their original fullness and the elimination of the downward turned corners of the mouth requires careful attention to this very important aspect of your visage. Dr. Rosenthal has done numerous lip enhancements and rejuvenation and her artistry, care and expertise will be both appreciated during the procedure and when you view the final results. Many clients comment on the subtle and natural good looking result.?
