Lip Lift | Upper Lip Lift Surgery

What is Lip Lift surgery?

Lip Lift surgery is a Facial Aesthetic Surgery that aims to create a balanced and attractive lip by shortening the distance between the nose and the upper lip, which will plump and reshape the lip, increasing the definition of the vermilion border.

Why is Lip Lift performed?

When the distance between the nose and the upper lip is long, an appearance of a misshapen lip, which might not fit with the rest of the facial features, becomes apparent. Lip Lift Surgery is performed to create an aesthetically pleasing appearance by shortening the distance between the nose and the upper lip.

What are the conditions for Lip Lift Surgery?

A Lip Lift is recommended to any patient who can undergo general anesthesia and who:

  • Has a long upper lip.
  • Has upper lip wings that are curved inward.
  • Are experiencing saggy lips due to age-related decrease in the lip fat tissue.

What Are The Things To Be Considered Before Lip Lift?

Before the surgery, the patient should:

  • Stop smoking, drinking alcohol, and using recreational drugs a month before the surgery.
  • If you are using any medication, you must tell your coordinator.
  • Be at the hospital a day before the surgery date for all pre-operative tests.
  • Avoid medication containing aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) for two weeks before and after surgery. These medications may increase the risk of internal bleeding. Patients should confirm each medication and supplement they wish to take with their Patient Coordinator.
  • During the physical examination, a drawing will be made by the plastic surgeon that shows the most suitable lip.

How is Lip Lift Surgery performed?

The procedure is performed through an incision made at the junction of the lower border of the nose and the upper lip. Tissue is removed through the incision and the vermillion is moved up.

The incision site is sutured aesthetically after the surgery. The melting time of the stitches is about a week.

Lip Lift surgery can be performed under both local and general anesthesia. The operation takes approximately an hour to perform.

What are The Things To Be Considered After Lip Lift Surgery?

There may be swelling and pain around the upper lip and nose after the operation, swelling and pain should decrease at the end of the third day and disappear completely within a week.

After the surgery, the patient should:

  • Should rest for 24 hours after the operation.
  • Avoid strenuous physical activities.
  • Not smoke for a month.
  • Not lie face down for a month.
  • Avoid blows to the lip or the area surrounding it.
  • Apply the prescribed antibiotic cream to the surgery area.

What Are The Risks of Lip Lift Surgery?

Even though Lip Lift Surgery is a relatively safe surgery with a comfortable healing process, it still carries certain risks like any other major surgery, such as:

  • Bleeding
  • Infection
  • Asymmetry
  • An adverse reaction to the anesthesia
  • Pain or discoloration
  • Suboptimal aesthetic result and/or minimal changes
  • Hematoma

jaimie liversidge reviewed Medistanbul review

Dr omer was a brilliant and extremely friendly surgeon and we got great results. Nursing team and coordination team including all the transalators was so helpful not a single compliant Not forgetting the cleaners the place was spotless

Kayleigh reviewed Excellent experience

I cannot fault a single thing about my whole experience with Booking Surgery. From initially reaching out and discussing everything with my co-ordinator, to actually booking my surgery, getting all the pre-op info, all the way to the hospital stay and the surgery itself it was fab the whole way through. The hospital was lovely and clean (felt more like a high class hotel than a hospital), every staff member so helpful and friendly, and my surgeon Dr Katar was out of this world. On the return myself and my companion were helped through check in at Istanbul airport by our lovely driver. My surgery was August 27th, so I’ve now been home for a week in which time I’ve had a follow up with the dietician and a check in with my co-ordinator. If you’re considering gastric surgery abroad I’d urge you to check out Booking Surgery. The entire visit is hospital-based so you’re in the best care, everything is made as comfortable as possible, and all post-op meds are provided to bring home. I honestly can’t think of a single negative thing to say and I’m genuinely grateful for such a wonderful experience.

I can not recommend Bruce my coordinator, he was so helpful from start to finish. He answered all my questions before and after my surgery. My surgeon Dr.Katar was lovely and did a BRILLIANT job, my scars are so neat. I feel great and truly believe it’s because been given such a high quality of care.

Zoe Patterson reviewed Brilliant Team

From start to finish, my experience with Booking Surgery has been fantastic. From the minute you land to the time you are put back on the plane, you are in the best hands. The team of people around you make you feel welcome and relaxed. The hospital is modern and very clean. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made.
