ABSTRACT

There are many options available to increase the volume and enhance the contours of the lip, as well as the perioral region. This article outlines an easy application of an allogenic, acellular dermal graft into the lips for this purpose. This material is readily available, easy to use, biocompatible, and nonimmunogenic; it exhibits a natural look and feel, and it has a low rate of infection. Our experience with this material has provided excellent cosmetic outcomes.
