Lip Lift

Although lip lift falls into the category of lip enlargement, it is not an operation performed with injectable or permanent fillers, but a surgical technique that requires intervention on the skin above the lip.

Lip Lift

This procedure is quite simple; lip lift reduces the distance between the nose and the top of the lip. The pink tissue is made more prominent after the operation, making the lips appear larger and more prominent. Additionally, when you smile, it increases the amount of your upper middle teeth that can be seen while your lips are resting.

Benefits of Lip Lift Surgery

Properly applied lip lift offers a number of benefits to patients. Similar to other areas of your face, the upper lip tends to enlarge and lengthen with age. As a result, there is often a "rolling" in the red part of the lip. Also, the upper lip slides down and hides the upper teeth, which can make the mouth appear older and drooping.
These changes can be reversed by reducing the upper lip. As a result, the mid-face looks lifted and rejuvenated. As a result of the increased lip volume, there is also a permanent appearance of fullness on the lips.

Lip Lift Procedure

This treatment takes about 30 minutes and can be done under local anesthesia; however, general anesthesia can also be used for those who are nervous. In order for this surgery to be performed, the excess of the upper lip skin behind the nose must be removed. Lip lift surgeries have been made in a variety of ways over the years.
A small amount of skin is removed from the area where your pink lip meets your skin, according to the original recipe. Using more advanced procedures, the incision is made slightly below your nose, resulting in a less noticeable scar. Small strips of skin are removed and stitches are used to gently and effectively close the wound. Our clinic uses the most innovative techniques to achieve a longer-lasting, more natural effect.

Lip Lift

Although lip lift falls into the category of lip enlargement, it is not an operation performed with injectable or permanent fillers, but a surgical technique that requires intervention on the skin above the lip. It is also called Bullhorn Lip Lift.

What is Lip Lift?

You may have a thin or less fullness on your lips due to aging. A lip lift is a procedure aimed at making the pink part of the upper lip more visible. With this procedure, the distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose is shortened, which sometimes is the only problem. The surgical method may be an alternative to injectable fillers (Lip Filler) or sometimes it may be necessary to consider both together. It is also a good option for people looking for a natural-looking lip enhancement effect.

Who are the good candidates for Lip Lift?

If you have a thin upper lip,
If your teeth are less visible when you smile,
if you have a long philtrum (distance between the area where you applied lipstick and the nose base),
if you are tired of getting lip fillers,
lip lift may be a good option for you.

What are the benefits of Lip Lift Surgery?

As a result, you get a larger and more prominent upper lip and a more attractive look. The effect of lip augmentation through lip lifting is permanent and does not need to be repeated.

Operation and Early Period After Operation

It needs to be kept in mind that even if it is a small one, a Lip Lift is a surgical method. The cut will be done at the base of the nose which will be hidden in the crease of an anatomic structure. The procedure takes about 30 to 45 minutes it is performed under general or often local anesthesia.
At the end of the operation thin bandages which stay five days will be applied over the wound. There will be no stitches to be taken off as they all are resolvable and hidden.
