A subnasal lip lift shortens the space between nose and lips, creating a youthful smile. Here’s what to consider:
The procedure involves removing a strip of skin below the nose to lift the upper lip.
A precise technique ensures natural lip proportions without distortion.
Benefits include a fuller, balanced smile. Risks may involve scarring or temporary numbness.
Recovery takes about 1 week, with stitches removed within days. Proper aftercare ensures minimal scarring.
Any healthy individual who feels that their upper lip is too long, lacks youthful appearance, or wants a more defined upper lip shape with realistic expectations, can go for a subnasal lip lift. Still confused? Book an appointment with a board-certified plastic surgeon right now.
Recovery usually takes 1–2 weeks. Stitches are removed after 5–7 days. Mild swelling and redness may last for 1–2 weeks, and final results can be appreciated after 2–3 months.
Preparation for subnasal lip lift includes:
• Get a consultation (physical or online).
• Discuss your goals clearly with the surgeon.
• Avoid smoking and alcohol before surgery.
• Blood investigations if recommended by the doctor.
• Trust the process and have realistic expectations.
A subnasal lip lift is usually performed under local anesthesia, which means your upper lip area will be numbed and you will be completely pain-free and relaxed. In some cases, mild sedation may be preferred.
