Risks of lip implants
Health is a unity and harmony within the mind, body and spirit which is unique to each person, and is as defined by that person. The level of wellness or health is, in part, determined by the ability to deal with and defend against stress. Health is determined by physiological, psychological, socio-cultural, spiritual, and developmental stage variables.

Lip Implant :: Risks of lip implants

Infection is a common, but treatable risk. Other complications of the removable implants (Gore-Tex, SoftForm, UltraSoft and Advanta) are less common but include migration, extrusion, decreased mobility, and irritation from a poor fitting implant.

The hollow implants (UltraSoft) allow your own tissues to grow into them which decreases the risk of infection, rejection, and mobility. However, they cannot be removed if there is a complication. Cost is variable but usually runs about one thousand dollars per implant. All implants carry the risk of permanent discoloration, scarring, and deformity. If you decide on implants, you and your physician will need to discuss the risks and benefits in detail.
