Central lip lift: A Brief Overview

What is Central lip lift?

A central lip lift, also known as a bullhorn lip lift or Cupid’s bow lip lift, is a cosmetic procedure that aims to enhance the appearance of the upper lip by creating a fuller, more youthful pout. It involves removing a small strip of skin from the center of the upper lip, positioned just below the nose, and suturing the remaining skin edges together. This results in an upward lift of the central portion of the upper lip, enhancing the definition and fullness of the Cupid’s bow area. Central lip lifts are typically performed under local anesthesia and can be completed in an hour or less.

Who is a good candidate for Central lip lift?

Ideal candidates for central lip lift typically exhibit one or more of the following characteristics:

  • Individuals with a long or flattened philtrum, the vertical groove between the base of the nose and the Cupid’s bow, creating a perceived distance between the nose and the lip.
  • Individuals with a thin or downturned upper lip, contributing to an aged or sullen appearance.
  • Individuals with nonsmoker’s lines, fine wrinkles above the upper lip, that can be minimized with the procedure.
  • Individuals in good overall health with realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes.

 

It’s important to note that central lip lift may not be suitable for everyone. Individuals with thin or reabsorbed lips, unrealistic expectations, or pre-existing medical conditions may not be ideal candidates for this procedure.

Risks of Central lip lift

As with any surgical procedure, central lip lift carries potential risks, including:

  • Infection
  • Bleeding
  • Temporary numbness or tingling around the lips
  • Scarring, although typically minimal and well-concealed
  • Unsatisfactory cosmetic results, such as asymmetry or an unnatural appearance
  • Overcorrection or undercorrection, resulting in an overly lifted or insufficiently lifted lip

 

A qualified and experienced plastic surgeon will thoroughly discuss these risks with you during your consultation to ensure you are fully informed before making a decision.

Recovery from Central lip lift

The recovery time for central lip lift is typically quick and uneventful. Most patients experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort around the lips, which can be managed with medication and cold compresses. Sutures are typically removed within a week, and most patients can resume normal activities within a few days. Complete healing and resolution of any residual swelling may take several weeks.

Cost of Central lip lift

The cost of central lip lift surgery in Iran varies depending on a number of factors, including: the surgeon’s fee, the cost of the surgical clinic, the cost of medications, and medical tests. However, the cost of central lip lift surgery in Iran is much lower than in most other countries, while the quality of surgery is very high.
