LIP LIFT SURGERY
Table of Contents
ToggleLip lift surgery is an aesthetic procedure that aims to give the lips a more prominent, youthful and balanced appearance by shortening the distance between the upper lip and the nose. This application, also known as “lip lift”, is an effective solution especially for people with thin upper lips, whose teeth are not visible when they smile or whose lips sag down over time..
Instead of volumizing the lip, this surgical procedure repositions the lip structure upwards and naturally makes the upper lip appear more lifted.
Who is Lip Lift Surgery Suitable for?
- Those with a long distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose
- Those with a thin or flat upper lip
- People whose teeth are not visible when laughing
- Those who experience lip sagging with age
- Those who want a more attractive lip line with a natural look
How is Lip Lift Surgery Performed?
- Examination and Planning: Lip structure, facial proportions and expectations are evaluated.
- Local Anesthesia : The procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes 45-60 minutes.
- Surgical Intervention: A small incision is made under the nose (usually at the base of the nose). Excess skin is removed and the upper lip is lifted upwards.
- Stitches and Healing: The incision is closed with fine stitches. The scar is hidden under the nose and loses its prominence over time.
