Lip Lift Surgery
What Is It?
Lip lift surgery is an aesthetic procedure aimed at shortening the distance between the bottom of the nose and the upper lip, making the upper lip more prominent. This surgery is performed to give the lips a younger, lifted, and more aesthetic appearance.
Surgery Duration and Type of Anesthesia
The procedure typically takes 30–45 minutes. It is performed under local anesthesia, with sedation added if necessary.
Why Is This Surgery Preferred?
With age, the distance between the nose and upper lip can lengthen, and the upper lip may curl inward, making it appear thinner. Lip lift surgery shortens this distance, making the upper lip more outward and prominent. It also helps make the teeth more visible.
Get in Touch
Aesthetics reshapes not only appearance but also self-confidence.
Who Is It Suitable For?
It is suitable for individuals with a long nose-to-lip distance, a thin upper lip, and a tired facial expression. It is especially preferred by women over the age of 30.
Recovery Process
In the first few days, mild swelling, bruising, and a feeling of tightness may occur. Stitches are typically removed within 5–7 days. The scar is hidden along the base of the nose, so it becomes less noticeable over time. Most patients can return to their social life within a week.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Will there be a scar?
Since the incisions are hidden beneath the nose, the scar is generally not visible.
Is it an alternative to lip fillers?
Yes, it is considered a permanent and natural alternative.
Will speech or facial expressions be affected?
No, when performed with the proper technique, there is no functional change.
Lip lift surgery, when performed with proper planning, an experienced surgeon, and close collaboration with the patient, allows for achieving natural and harmonious results that maintain the overall aesthetic balance of the face. Since each patient’s anatomy and expectations are unique, individualized planning plays a key role in the success of the procedure.
