Create a Symmetrical and Attractive Lip Contour with a Lip Reduction

This procedure has grown in popularity in recent years and many people feel very self conscious of their larger lips.  A strip of lip tissue is removed to create a symmetrical and attractive lip contour. The scars are positioned to be inside the mouth so that they are not visible normally. It is a local anaesthetic procedure that takes 30 minutes to perform.

The normal ratio of the upper lip : lower lip is 1:1.6 and lip reduction surgery helps to correct large or uneven lips and create a balance between the upper and lower lips.

The stitches are dissolving and will flake off after 2 weeks. For the first 2 weeks, the lips will be swollen and the scar will be visible as the swelling pulls on the lips.  However, over time as the swelling decreases the scar becomes hidden and the lips develop a beautiful shape.

Smaller and even lips for a balanced look

The typical ratio of the upper lip to lower lip is 1:1.6, but some individuals may have disproportionate or uneven lips.

Lip reduction surgery aims to address this by harmonizing lip proportions, achieving a balanced and aesthetically pleasing result.
