Overview:
Lip lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure offered by Miss Berridge that is designed to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by reshaping and lifting. This procedure is ideal for individuals who desire a more defined, youthful, and attractive upper lip contour.
Treatment:
The surgical procedure involves making a ‘bullhorn’ incision beneath the nose and removing a small amount of skin to lift the upper lip. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and takes about one hour to complete.
Miss Berridge uses her expertise and artistic skills to customize the procedure to the individual needs of each patient. The procedure can be combined with other aesthetic treatments such as lip augmentation with fillers to achieve the best possible results.
Recovery:
After the surgery, patients may experience some mild discomfort and swelling in the treated area. These side effects are generally temporary and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses. Bruising, abnormal scaring and bleeding are rare.
Patients can typically resume their normal activities within a few days to a week after the procedure, although strenuous exercise and activities that involve significant lip movement should be avoided for a few weeks to allow for optimal healing.
