Reader Laura on the Lindsay Lohan Trout Pout

Posted by admin in Lip Filler on August 10, 2010

Reader Question:

Lindsay Lohan seems to have developed the “trout pout” once again. I always wonder why these celebrities seem to think this looks good.

The real question is what looks good. It sounds like a silly question but whereas some people want to look natural others want to look “supernatural” in the area of lip fillers just like breast implants. I posted a conservative lip filler “Before and After” on the blog a few years ago and many readers could not tell the difference. They were likely used to seeing much larger Trout Pout lips.

I give patients a mirror when I do lip injections so they can tell me how much they want. Some patients end up with a partially saved syringe for later and for others we use it all.

As usual, it is all relative.

BTW – One of the Daily Mail readers likely had it right. Collagen is rarely used these days. It is far more likely Lilo had one of the hyaluronic acid-based products injected.

Disfigured By Fillers

Posted by admin in Lip Filler, soft tissue fillers on July 30, 2009

Daily Mail

[T]he British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) published statistics revealing that almost a quarter of their members had seen patients for surgery to correct problems caused by permanent fillers – injectable gels used to add volume to the face and, more recently, the body.

Permanent fillers are dangerous. Silicone gel was the prototypical “permanent filler.” No responsible plastic surgeons of whom I know offer it to their clients.

The good and the bad about the safe soft tissue fillers is that they don’t last too long. The newer Hyaluronic acid fillers (Hylaform, Restylane, Captique, Prevelle and the like)  are probably the safest we have seen to date. They have the fewest reactions and problems, but last only a few months.

Stay away from permanent fillers.

Jenna Jameson is still wasting away and using too much lip filler. She was a lovely gal.

Lip Fillers – Hylaform – A Modest Enlargement

Posted by admin in Lip Filler on August 9, 2005

The most common Lip Fillers (Restylane, Hylaform, Captique) are all composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in skin. They pretty much give equivalent results.

While we have all seen the freakish outcomes in celebrities, here is the other side with a modest enlargement. This patient was injected twice two weeks apart with about half a single unit each time to get the results you see a week after the second injection. She had no bruising and was out and about the evening after each injection. There is swelling that resolves, but in modest enlargements, no trout and no fat lip.
