Abstract
Aim and background: The lips play a critical role in the perception of youth, beauty, and facial harmony. This review examines lip enhancement techniques in the youthful population, emphasizing anatomy, aesthetic considerations, and both surgical and nonsurgical modalities.
Anatomy: The lips consist of the upper and lower cutaneous and vermilion lip, encircled by the orbicularis oris muscle and supplied by the superior and inferior labial arteries.
Techniques: Lip enhancement can be achieved with neuromodulators, hyaluronic acid fillers, and surgical techniques. Botulinum toxin creates subtle lip eversion, while hyaluronic acid fillers provide volume and definition. Surgical lip lift procedures shorten the cutaneous upper lip, evert the red lip, and increase maxillary incisor show, improving overall lip proportion.
Conclusion and clinical relevance: Successful lip enhancement relies on thoughtful patient selection and an understanding of lip anatomy and aesthetic proportions. Both nonsurgical and surgical treatments can provide natural and harmonious results.
