Lip Lifting
“Lip lift” is an aesthetic procedure and is an operation performed to make a person’s lips look more plump and younger. During this operation, the distance between the upper lip and the columella is reduced and the upper lip is raised higher. This creates more visible space on the upper lip and increases the fullness of the lips.
The lip lift operation is usually preferred when the lips become thinner due to the aging process or when it is desired to make the facial expression look younger and more vibrant. It may also be an option for people who want to raise the upper lip line, which is naturally low.
Usually, a small incision is made and excess skin and tissues are removed, then the lip is lifted. As a result of the operation, a person’s lips may look more plump and younger, but the results may vary from person to person. The lip lift operation depends on the person’s expectations and current situation. Personalized planning should be made. It should be planned in a way that is compatible with other features of the person’s face, taking into account the overall balance and aesthetics of the face.
The Healing Process
The best candidates for the lip lift operation are people who are in good general health, have realistic expectations and want the operation. As a result of the operation, the upper lip may look higher and more plump. The results of the operation may vary from person to person and are usually permanent.
The healing process after the operation varies from person to person, but usually takes between a few days and a week. It is important to follow the post-operative care instructions given by your doctor.
