title: Current concepts in lip augmentation.
abstract: Facial rejuvenation, particularly lip augmentation, has gained widespread popularity. An appreciation of perioral anatomy as well as the structural characteristics that define the aging face is critical to achieve optimal patient outcomes. Although techniques and technology evolve continuously, hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers continue to dominate aesthetic practice. A combination approach including neurotoxin and volume restoration demonstrates superior results in select settings.
