What does the procedure look like?
A lip lift is performed under local anaesthesia and takes about 45 minutes. The surgeon carefully removes a small strip of skin below the nose and lifts the upper lip, creating a more attractive shape and a better balance of the facial features. The procedure does not affect the natural expressions or function of the lips, and the scar is discreetly hidden under the base of the nose.
What are the benefits of a lip lift?
- A more natural and longer-lasting result compared with fillers
- Improved lip shape and fullness without an artificial look
- A shorter philtrum for a more youthful appearance
- Minimal post-operative discomfort and a quick recovery
Recovery and results
Mild swelling and redness are expected in the first days after the procedure, but most patients return to their everyday activities within a few days. The final results become visible after a few weeks, once the swelling has fully subsided and the scar has become almost invisible.
