Kylie Jenner: Okay....Lip Injections Or Lip Implant? Or Neither?

We happen to think that the youngest K sister (Jenner girl), Kylie, is very pretty, even without the enhanced lips that everyone's been buzzing about.

Let us take that one step further....We also believe that Kylie Jenner has MORE of a model's face than her model sister Kendall.  Kylie is striking to look at.

Here she is at her recent hair extensions launch party. Kylie is 17.


And here is Kylie in pink lipstick at age 15, with obviously thinner lips.


Alright.....so how do we get from point A to point B?

The experts will tell you it's either lip injections or a lip implant. And we've been reading on what the derms + plastic surgeons are saying, claiming that Kylie has merely been getting lip injections.

We are NOT sure. We would figure it's a lip implant, but we are only guessing.

Maybe it is neither. And Kylie Jenner isn't talking.  And she does NOT have to. None of our business. But since she displays her ample lips in lots of selfies, well, it's the curiosity factor.


So to educate ourselves....let's look at these 2 quick procedures.

1. Lip injections. Ouch....you WILL feel these. Restylane, Perlane, etc., are just 2 types of dermal fillers that are injected into the lips + around the mouth to add instant plumpness. These fillers eventually wear off and you might have to get injections 3 times a year or more to keep up the volume.

2. A Lip Implant. This 20-minute procedure will increase lip size permanently. A lip implant is made of a soft, solid silicone. It cannot rupture or deflate, and may be removed at any time.

According to RealSelf.com:

"The procedure is performed with small incisions inside the corners of your mouth. The implant is then threaded through your lips. The incisions are hidden inside your mouth and closed with dissolvable sutures."

And there you have it------Bigger Lips 101.
