What is Lip Lift?

Lip lift is a cosmetic procedure to decrease the distance between the upper lip and bottom of the nose. Patients who wish to have a fuller, voluminous upper lip, fix lip corners that are down-turned or remove lines between the nose and the lip are great candidates for lip lift. Lip lift creates a rejevunated, fresh appearance.

Preparing for Lip Lift

  1. Online and in-person consultations will be made to examine the patient, assess the medical history and to discuss the patient's expectations.
  2. The doctor will make note of allergies, chronic diseases and regular medications used by the patient.
  3. The anesthesist will have a consultation with the patient.
  4. The patient should quit smoking and avoid alcohol before the procedure.
  5. Patients must stop taking Aspirin and all other blood thinners, Omega 3 supplements and herbal teas.

The Surgical Process

Lip lift is performed under local anesthesia and takes less than 1 hour. The most commonly used technique is bullhorn incision, after which excess skin is removed, lip is lifted and sutured.

The Post-Operative Process

  • Mild swelling and tightness are normal after the procedure.
  • Stitches will be removed a few days after the operation, unless dissolvable stitches are used.
  • Scars will heal in a few weeks after surgery but will take about 1 year to fade away.
  • You may get back to work 1-2 weeks after surgery.
  • The surgeon will be available for online and in-person consultations after the surgery for necessary follow-ups.
