Permanently Beautiful Lips

Have you heard about the latest lip plumping cosmetic surgery procedure? It’s called a lip implant and involves grafting a snip of your neck muscle onto your lips. It’s said to improve lip color as well as form. Pioneered in India, the procedure is fairly new and largely unstudied. Possible side effects include loss of feeling in the lips, head movement limitations, neck pain, nerve injury and lip deformities. All that risk and U.S. researchers say the procedure only provides beneficial results for 2 years. After that, lip color fades again.

How much smarter (and more cost effective) to use permanent makeup to make your lips permanently full and rosy. In permanent cosmetics, a paramedical tattooing process is used to insert natural pigments under the skin to add permanent, long-lasting color to pale lips. An expert permanent makeup artist like Melany Whitney can make lips appear fuller and even correct uneven or irregular lip lines and minor scars. Permanent lip clients can choose to go natural and have their lips colored a slightly darker shade than their skin tone or call more attention to their lips by having Melany match their favorite lip stain color to create a signature look.
