Lip Wrinkles: Natural Fix
March 31st, 2014
Lip wrinkles or sometimes referred to as “smokers lines,†are the lines that radiate out from the lip margin. They can be the result of aging, sun exposure, smoking, and /or genetics. They usually make a person look older. Women generally dislike them because their lipstick runs into the wrinkles, giving a pronounced pursed look. Interestingly, when lip lines become more apparent, it is often combined with a loss of lip volume or fullness at the same time. These changes contribute to the appearance of facial aging. Is there a natural fix for these wrinkles? Fortunately there are new choices to reduce lip lines, besides the injectable artificial fillers. Advances in regenerative medicine has ushered in revolutionary changes in many anti-aging procedures.
Is regenerative fat transfer the Fountain of Youth? Perhaps, because regenerative medicine offers stunning new advances in natural procedures for facial rejuvenation, including restoration of youthful lips. Nipntuck Naturalâ„¢ features this new fat graft injection technique, which now allows us to replace facial fat loss. Simply stated, starting with liposuction, we gently remove your own fat cells from selected areas and then they are carefully transferred to another location. The regenerative properties of these fat cells are particularly effective, because the fat cells become a natural living part of the tissues wherever it is placed. Not only can the lines be corrected, but the lips can be restored to more youthful size and shape, as well.
This revolutionary technique is not limited to facial rejuvenation. Fat grafting is an outpatient, clinic-based procedure and the quick recovery time is changing many aspects of cosmetic plastic surgery today. It is an ideal solution for patients preferring more natural choices for the newest options in cosmetic surgery and represents an exciting time in the field of medicine.
It is important to seek qualified professional advice when considering these procedures. Most cosmetic surgeons do not charge for patient consultations. Here is a link to find a board certified plastic surgeon near you, The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).
Look Good, Feel Good

While on a walk in Wayzata late last summer, we spotted this saying on a store display window. Perhaps 60% might be an exaggerated figure, but many of my patients express a similar sentiment. Lives are busy and sometimes attention to ourselves takes the backseat to other obligations, not limited to being a mom. I often see an uptick of consultations during the spring. Common complaints include localized weight gain and facial aging. With the advances in regenerative medicine today, these 2 concerns can be addressed together now with fat grafting. The fat grafting injection procedure uses autologous (your own) liposuctioned fat, that is prepared to artfully sculpt a fresher looking face. Traditionally lipo fat was medically discarded. Regenerative medicine includes many exciting breakthroughs in cosmetic medicine, including natural facial rejuvenation, implant-free breast enlargement, breast reconstruction, treating breast asymmetry and natural lip plumping. Studies have shown that the familiar saying, “Look Good, Feel Good” has some validity. Are you ready for a little beauty boost?
