Lip enhancement in Bali will give you the fuller lips you want while enjoying a holiday on this popular island. 

Achieving that pouty look is easier and more affordable than ever, with treatments ranging from cosmetic surgery to minimally invasive procedures. Fillers are now popular for lip enhancement and FDA approved options include Restylane® Silk, Restylane-L, Restylane injectable gel, Juvederm® Volbella XC, Radiesse® and collagen fillers like Cosmoderm® and Cosmoplast®.

Fillers can yield quick results that may be temporary or need topping up at regular intervals if you are happy with the results. However, not everything is treatable with fillers. You may need surgery if:

• You need vermilion advancement

• Your lips are asymmetric and need correcting

• You need a lip lift or you require implants

If you’re looking to cut costs on cosmetic surgery or aesthetic treatments, Bali should make it to your list of medical tourism destinations. This is especially true for those living in Australia, New Zealand, nearby Asian countries or people simply planning a holiday to this part of the world. 

This large island in Indonesia has excellent medical facilities and experienced doctors who welcome thousands of patients from all over the globe, but more particularly from English-speaking countries like Australia and New Zealand—thus, you shouldn’t experience language barriers when consulting with your doctors or service personnel.

You can make the most of your holiday in Bali by exploring its many exciting tourist attractions, such as the hanging gardens in Ubud or the popular  Devata Vishnu underwater temple. If you are into sports then you can sign up for golfing tours, whitewater rafting, diving, surfing, fishing, snorkeling, zip-lining, and all sorts of other activities.

Bali is also renowned for its spa facilities, where you can relax in style in luxurious surroundings while your body is pampered and refreshed. When the sun sets, you’ll find no shortage of are amazing bars and restaurants to delight your palate and keep you entertained until the small hours.

• If it’s only fillers being used, the procedure is easy and relatively painless except for minor stinging pain. As with Botox® injections, the procedure can take as little as a half-hour. While hyaluronic acid-based fillers are commonly used, you may opt for collagen-based fillers or fat transfer. Each product has its advantages and disadvantages and you and the doctor can take a call accordingly. 
  
  Immediate results will be noticeable as your lips will swell up. However, this subsides over the next few days and your lips won’t have such an exaggerated swollen look. You can read more about dermal fillers with Medical Departures here. 

• If surgery is called for, the treatment may take up to an hour and you’ll normally be given local anesthesia. After the surgery, you will have to be careful for a week and follow medical advice regarding stitches, which may have to be removed.
