i had lip enhancement 5 years ago. it was the best thing i could have done. i always had a small upper lip and when i saw the full lips on all the hollywood stars i said why not. the cost was not too bad but you have to do it each year. i thought about a lip implant but it seemed scary maybe too permanent. thought about getting old and having puffy lips, lol. i read in costa rica it is $450 for a vial of fillers but you still have something that doesn't last. does anyone know if they have come out with a long lasting filler?
thanks, sassy |

How about fat transfer to the lips? I have a friend who had that and it lasted about 2 years, not bad. I asked about it with several doctors in Costa Rica and the going price seems to be $500 and up. I think that is wonderful as my girlfriend spent a lot more in the States. I know this is something I am going to get when I go. Hoping to be set by June as I have the summer off so plenty of time to recover from the procedures I am planning. Just looking for patients who have gone.

I am having lip enhancement with my facelift at Christmas. The doctors are going to use Metacril. It is not used in the States but is used in the rest of the world. It is a permanent fill but the doctors say the results don't last forever. They said that over time the collagen (sp?) fills in but it does last for a few years. They quoted me $500 for it. I think this makes much more sense than using fat or the other fills.

I had one with in 4 months did not look any dufferent after the swelling went down the lips did. I think you have to keep getting filers afterward. even though enhancement is permanet.

Hi Dke,
Who did your fill? I had fill for my lips while I was there a month ago. I love my new lips. The doctors used Metacrile...not sure of the spelling. I had lost some of the fullness of my lips and felt it made my face look older. The fuller lips are great. I only needed one syringe full which cost $450 but got a discount cause I paid cash. I had it done while I was having my breast lift. Figured it was best to do while I was sleeping |

We all are having different mind sets about cosmetic surgery. Some consider it as an enhancement to beauty while some don’t think so. Everyone has his or her own views. Basically Cosmetic surgery in Miami is all about getting rid of damages like scars or any birthmarks.
