What is Lip Reduction Surgery?
Lip reduction surgery, or reduction cheiloplasty, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce the size of oversized or overly full lips to create more proportionate, balanced facial features. Some individuals have naturally large lips that they feel are out of proportion with their face, while others may experience lip enlargement due to aging, trauma, or previous cosmetic procedures.
The procedure removes excess tissue from the upper lip, lower lip, or both, creating a more harmonious lip size that complements your facial features. Results are permanent and natural-looking, with scars hidden inside the lips along the wet-dry border.
