Full, well-defined lips are a universal symbol of youth and sensuality. For those looking to achieve a fuller pout without relying on synthetic fillers, lip fat augmentation offers a natural and long-lasting alternative. In Seoul, Korea, Fresh Dr. Hong Clinic stands out as a leading specialist in this procedure, using advanced fat grafting techniques to create a soft, supple, and beautifully enhanced smile.

What is Lip Fat Augmentation?

Lip fat augmentation is a delicate procedure that uses your own body's fat to add volume and improve the shape of your lips. It's a two-step process:

1. Harvesting: A small amount of excess fat is gently removed from a donor area with a sufficient fat supply, such as the abdomen or thigh.
2. 
   
3. Refined Injection: This harvested fat is then meticulously purified, and only the healthiest, most viable fat cells are selected. These cells are then precisely injected into the lips to add natural-looking volume and correct any asymmetry.

The Fresh Dr. Hong Clinic Difference

At Fresh Dr. Hong Clinic, the key to successful lip fat augmentation lies in their specialized approach. Dr. Hong and his team understand that the lips are a highly sensitive and delicate area, requiring a high degree of precision and artistry. They utilize a unique "micro fat grafting" method to ensure the best possible results.

• Advanced Fat Harvesting: The clinic uses the Harvest-Jet system for fat extraction. This gentle, water-assisted method minimizes trauma to the fat cells, ensuring that the harvested fat is of the highest quality and remains viable for transfer.
• Specialized "Nano Cannula": For the delicate lip area, the clinic employs a special 1mm "nano cannula" for injection. This ultra-fine tool allows for meticulous, multi-layered injections, which are essential for a smooth, natural-looking outcome. It significantly reduces swelling and bruising compared to standard cannulas and prevents a "lumpy" appearance.
• PRP & Stem Cell Enrichment: To further enhance the survival and longevity of the fat cells, they are often combined with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) from the patient's own blood. This enriches the fat with growth factors that help nourish the transferred cells and ensure they successfully integrate into the lip tissue.



By using your own fat, the risk of allergic reactions is virtually eliminated, and the results are incredibly natural to the touch. Once the fat cells successfully establish a new blood supply, they can provide a permanent volume increase, making this a long-term solution for beautiful, plump lips.
