Reviews

What can I expect after?
It's important to pay attention to the aftercare instructions given by Dr. Tamburrino to achieve optimal healing and the best results. When you receive a nonsurgical lip enhancement, your mouth will probably be sore or tender for a few days. If you had a fat transfer, you should expect the area where the fat was extracted to be sore also. Cold compresses and nonprescription pain medications are recommended to address any inflammation and discomfort. The results of a dermal filler may be visible for about 3 – 12 months, depending on the specific injectable chosen for the procedure. Talk to Dr. Tamburrino about maintenance sessions to freshen up your lips.
HOW do the lip flip and lip fillers work?
Both the Lip Flip and lip fillers use the same injection technique. They just use different methods to achieve their results. During your initial consultation, Dr. Tamburrino or a member of his team will talk to you about your aesthetic goals to help you decide which procedure is right for you.
- Lip Flip — instead of a filler, the Lip Flip technique uses a muscle relaxer like BOTOX® or Dysport® to relax the muscle above your upper lip. This allows the lip to sit a bit lower, resulting in a fuller look. The results start to be seen in about 7 – 10 days and only last about 12 – 18 weeks, making it a perfect "try on" option before you decide on a longer-lasting option like lip fillers.
- Lip Fillers — Lip fillers like JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, RADIESSE®, and others offer longer-lasting lip plumping results by injecting safe, FDA-approved fillers that can last between six months to a year. Typically these contain HA (hyaluronic acid) that instantly plumps the lips and stimulates the natural production of collagen in the skin.
Lip Flip and Lip Fillers FAQ
Can I get the lips of a specific celebrity?
You may come in asking for the full, sexy lips of a screen siren or pop star. Having pictures of lips you want can help Dr. Tamburrino understand your goals, but it can be difficult to create the exact shape and appearance of someone else's lips. During your first appointment, Dr. Tamburrino will listen to your goals before discussing your options (implants, a fat transfer, or dermal fillers) to augment your lips. After that, he will craft your custom treatment plan.
Should I get implants, a fat transfer, or fillers?
Based on your specific goals, Dr. Tamburrino will help you decide between dermal fillers, implants, or a fat transfer for your lip augmentation. Lip implants and fat transfers are more invasive than dermal lip fillers, making fillers a good option if you are new to lip augmentation. You can get comfortable with Dr. Tamburrino and determine how much volume you would like before proceeding to lip implants or a fat transfer. In your initial consultation, the doctor will discuss the pros and cons of each of your choices, helping you decide which is best for you.
Do lip implants look fake?
Implants are made with a silicone material that is designed to look and feel natural. With his years of training, Dr. Tamburrino inserts lip implants so your results will look natural but still impressive. In your initial consultation, He will discuss the size and shape of lower and/or upper lip implants to meet your needs and goals. After a few months, the implants will settle into their final position, and the inflammation will be gone — so you can enjoy your results.
Is lip augmentation reversible?
Typically, patients are very happy with their lip augmentation. However, if you are not happy with your outcomes, you can have your lip implants taken out. If you're unsure about implants, Dr. Tamburrino might recommend dermal fillers as they're less invasive. For dermal fillers, the formula will slowly absorb into your body over time, which means that your lips will become smaller.
