Are you looking to enhance the shape and size of your lips?
A Lip Filler is a very common minimally invasive procedure to do it. But it’s a temporary fix. With time, the product is absorbed by the body and the procedure should be repeated to keep the desired results.
If you are looking for a more permanent solution we highly recommend surgical lip lift.
A surgical lip lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to shorten the distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose, improving the appearance of the lips and enhancing facial balance. It is often done to create a fuller and more youthful look without the need for fillers.
How It Works
During the procedure, a small strip of skin is removed from the area beneath the nose, and the remaining skin is sutured to lift the lip. This raises the vermilion (the colored part of the lips) and can increase the visibility of the upper teeth when the lips are at rest, giving a more aesthetically pleasing result.
Benefits
- Increased lip height: Makes the lips look naturally fuller.
- More youthful appearance: Lifting the upper lip can soften the look of aging.
- Permanent results: Unlike fillers, a lip lift provides lasting effects.
- Better lip-to-face proportion: Enhances facial symmetry and balance.
Types of Lip Lifts
- Bullhorn Lip Lift: The most common type, where an incision is made just under the base of the nose in a bullhorn shape.
- Corner Lip Lift: Targets the corners of the lips, often done for individuals whose lips naturally turn downward, giving them a more “smiling” appearance.
- Italian Lip Lift: Involves two small incisions under the nostrils for a subtler lift.
Recovery
- Swelling and bruising are normal and typically subside within 1–2 weeks.
- Stitches are usually removed within a week.
- Full results can be seen after the healing process, which may take 1–3 months.
