Lip Augmentation: Risks
Though lip augmentation is considered a very safe procedure, as with any surgery, it has its risks. The following risks are not common, but could occur:
  • Numbness
  • Swelling
  • Ulceration
  • Scarring
  • Unnatural movement when smiling or talking
  • "Kinking" if an implant is used
  • Hardness, unnatural to the touch or kiss
Though some people like the results of lip enhancement, they may prefer temporary changes to their appearance. So, if you opt for a procedure that will permanently change the look of your lips, understand beforehand that some techniques may leave your lips larger or more uneven than you'd expected.
