Study: Amount of Lip Augmentation Surgeries Went Up This Year — for Both Men and Women

Pucker up for new stats from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) showing that lip augmentationsurgeries are growing – and fast. ASPS recently commissioned a survey ranking Hollywood’s hottest lips – and you may be surprised to see who won.

The results found the most likeable lips belong to Jennifer Lawrence, whose natural looking lips beat out some pretty famous celebs with much larger lips.  Here are the rankings in order:

1. Jennifer Lawrence
2. Scarlett Johansson
3. Jennifer Garner
4. Angelina Jolie
5. Kylie Jenner
6. Beyonce
7. Lisa Rinna

A record number of more than 27,000 lip procedures took place last year — that’s about one every 20 minutes, and an increase of nearly 50 percent since 2000. In fact, lip augmentations are growing faster than breast augmentations and the new statistics show that the procedure has skyrocketed in both women (up 43 percent since 2000) AND men (up 404 percent since 2000). There were nearly one hundred male lip procedures every month in 2015.

In addition to the sharp rise in the number of lip implants, lip injections continued to show staggering growth as well. Between BotoxⓇ and DysportⓇ injections, and a variety of soft tissue fillers, lip procedures were part of nearly 9.2 million injection procedures in 2015, a combined increase of more than 1,000 percent since 2000.
