Your lips are one of your most defining features, and achieving the perfect balance of shape and volume can enhance your overall appearance. Whether you’re seeking a subtle enhancement or a dramatic transformation, there are a variety of techniques to achieve your desired look. Two standout options are lip filler using Restylane Kysse and the lip lift cosmetic surgery procedure.


Dr. Robert Schwarcz, with offices on the Upper East Side of Manhattan in NYC and Rye, NY, specializes in lip enhancement treatments, offering tailored solutions for natural, beautiful results.


Lip Filler with Restylane Kysse

What Is Restylane Kysse?Restylane Kysse is a hyaluronic acid (HA)-based dermal filler designed specifically for the lips. It enhances volume, smooths fine lines, and defines the lip border while maintaining a natural feel and appearance.

Key Benefits of Restylane Kysse:

  • Natural-Looking Results: Its XpresHAn Technology™ ensures the filler moves naturally with your expressions.

  • Soft, Flexible Feel: Your lips will look plump yet feel completely natural.

  • Long-Lasting Effects: Results last up to 12 months with proper care.

  • Customizable Volume: From subtle enhancement to fuller lips, the amount can be tailored to your goals.

Ideal For:

  • Adding volume to thin lips.

  • Enhancing the shape and contour of your lips.

  • Smoothing vertical lip lines or “smoker’s lines.”


Lip Lift Cosmetic Surgery

What Is a Lip Lift?A lip lift is a surgical procedure that shortens the distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose. This creates a more youthful and defined appearance by lifting the upper lip and exposing more of the natural lip tissue.

Key Benefits of a Lip Lift:

  • Permanent Results: Unlike fillers, a lip lift provides long-lasting enhancement.

  • Increased Upper Lip Volume: By lifting the lip, it appears fuller without adding artificial volume.

  • Improved Balance: Corrects an elongated upper lip for a more harmonious facial aesthetic.

Ideal For:

  • Patients with a long philtrum (space between the nose and lip).

  • Those seeking a permanent solution for lip enhancement.

  • Individuals looking to enhance lip volume without the use of fillers.


Choosing Between Lip Filler and a Lip Lift

Lip Filler:

  • Ideal for patients seeking a non-surgical, customizable enhancement.

  • Perfect for those wanting to try out a temporary look or add subtle volume.

Lip Lift:

  • Best for individuals looking for a permanent solution.

  • Suitable for correcting a long upper lip or achieving a more youthful appearance.

Many patients benefit from a combination of these techniques for a balanced and comprehensive approach to lip enhancement.
