Lip Augmentation has become one of the most popular ways to enhance your facial appearance, but it’s not just about fuller lips. At Center for Beauty in Louisville, Double Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Sean Maguire takes a personalized approach to every lip enhancement, carefully evaluating facial balance, lip proportions, and patient goals to achieve results that look beautiful and natural.
The key to a successful Lip Augmentation lies in choosing the right shape for your individual features — not merely copying trends or chasing volume for its own sake.
Facial Balance Matters
A well-proportioned lip enhancement takes into account the relationship between the lips, nose, chin, and overall facial structure. Dr. Maguire evaluates how the top and bottom lips relate to each other and to the rest of the face. For example, a subtle increase in upper lip height can bring harmony to a face with a strong chin or prominent nose. On the other hand, someone with petite facial features may need only a very small enhancement for a noticeable improvement.
Understanding Lip Proportions
Classic lip aesthetics often reference the “golden ratio,” in which the bottom lip is slightly fuller than the top lip. But beauty isn’t one-size-fits-all. You may naturally have a different proportion or prefer a more balanced look. Dr. Maguire works to refine volume, shape, and definition in a way that enhances — not alters — their unique facial character.
Different Techniques for Different Needs
Dr. Maguire offers several lip enhancement techniques, depending on the desired outcome. The most common option is a hyaluronic acid-based dermal filler, which adds volume, defines borders, and smooths vertical lip lines with immediate results and minimal downtime. For patients interested in a more permanent solution, he also performs Lip Lift surgery, which shortens the distance between the nose and upper lip for a more youthful appearance. Each method is carefully selected based on your anatomy, goals, and comfort level.
Subtle, Natural Results Are Always the Goal
The best Lip Augmentation results complement your face, not distract from it. Whether adding soft volume, restoring shape after aging, or enhancing definition, Dr. Maguire’s approach is always customized and precise. He and his nurse practitioners specializing in injectables have a proven track record of success.
