PermaLip Treatment in Scottsdale with Dr. Pamela Henderson

PermaLip in Scottsdale

Beautiful lips are one of nature’s best fashion accessories. Unfortunately Mother Nature doesn’t bless us all with luscious, pouty lips. Thinner lips often give the face a terse expression. This expression may harden with age as the volume in the lips degrades naturally.

Many of Dr. Henderson’s patients seek out fuller lips. There are many solutions including dermal fillers and using fat from elsewhere on the body to shape the lips into the perfect pout. Achieving effective lip enhancement has posed a challenge to even the most skilled surgeons as these methods sometimes overfill or result in asymmetry. Even if the results achieved are desirable, neither of these methods is permanent.

The quest for the perfect lip enhancement solution gravitated toward implants, unfortunately most methods appeared unnatural. In some dramatic cases these implants even stimulated unwanted tissue growth. Implant reversals also proved problematic. Plastic surgeons became dissatisfied with the available procedures as researchers continued to seek out an effective way to provide the beautiful lips so many patients seek.

We are excited to offer patients the result of tireless research and innovation: PermaLip.

PermaLip, a product of Surgisil, is an implant designed exclusively to enhance the lips. The technology is patented and highly effective. Dr. Henderson fully endorses the PermaLip augmentation option. It is simply the lip augmentation solution every cosmetic surgeon has been waiting for.

What makes PermaLip different?

PermaLip is comprised of a soft solid silicone elastomer that is made by using an injection molding process. PermaLip implants contour naturally and offer a smooth and non-porous surface. Its durable composition allows PermaLip implants to easily be removed without risk of rupture.

Sizing a PermaLip implant is provides more predictability other implant methods. Dr. Henderson works with you to choose the just the proportional size to enhance facial harmony uniquely in each patient. Because PermaLip is designed exclusively for lip enhancement, the results are breathtaking but subtle.  Patient’s lips appear full and natural without the lumps, asymmetries and unpredictability of other enhancement methods.

What is the PermaLip procedure like?

Using nearly imperceptible incisions at the mouth’s corners, the PermaLip implant is placed surgically. Patients are placed under local anesthesia and experience little pain during the hour long procedure. Patients will experience some soreness and possibly minimal bruising as a result of surgery, however this quickly heals. Patients quickly regain the ability to speak, eat, and kiss.

Am I a good candidate for PermaLip?

The procedure is safe and appropriate for young and old patients. During consultation, Dr. Henderson will evaluate your health to ensure that undertaking the procedure is safe for you. Most patients who seek fuller lips make excellent candidates for PermaLip surgery. The results of the procedure are subtle and beautiful.
