# Lip Augmentation in Bangalore

*Medically reviewed by [Dr Sreekar Harinatha](/about-dr-sreekar-harinatha-best-plastic-surgeon-in-bangalore), MCh (Plastic Surgery)*

Lip augmentation adds volume and shape to thin lips, or restores lips that have thinned with age. It also softens fine lines around the mouth. At Contura Clinic, Bangalore, Dr Sreekar Harinatha offers three options: hyaluronic acid fillers (temporary), fat transfer from your own body, and soft permanent lip implants. Surgical lip augmentation is a day-care procedure and costs from ₹25,000 plus taxes.


## Your three options

|  | Fillers | Fat transfer | Lip implants |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| What it is | Hyaluronic acid gel injected into the lips | Your own fat, taken by liposuction and injected | Soft, flexible implants placed in the upper and/or lower lip |
| How long it lasts | Temporary. Needs top-ups | Long-lasting, but some fat is absorbed, so a touch-up may be needed | Permanent |
| Best for | A subtle first change. Usually recommended first | A natural feel, using your own tissue | A permanent result |
| Time | About 10 minutes | 1–2 hours | 1–2 hours |

Dr Sreekar usually recommends starting with fillers, because they are subtle and temporary. See [Fillers](/fillers) for details.

## Recovery after lip augmentation

Expect swelling and some bruising for the first few days, which is worst on day 2 and eases with cold packs. Avoid very hot food and drinks, and pressure on the lips, for a few days. Most people return to work in 2–3 days after implants or fat transfer, and straight away after fillers.

## Can lip augmentation be combined with other procedures?

Yes. It is often combined with chin correction and rhinoplasty to balance the whole profile.

Lip implants are permanent. Fat transfer is long-lasting once it settles, though some fat is absorbed. Fillers are temporary and need repeat sessions.

### Are lip implants permanent?

Yes. Lip implants are soft, flexible and designed to stay in place permanently. They come in different sizes and shapes to suit your lips.
