We focus on natural-looking lip lifts that complement your unique facial features.
The Concept of Lip Lift in Dubai
A Lip Lift procedure offers a long-lasting solution to aesthetic lip concerns, providing a more attractive lip profile. Unlike dermal fillers, which typically last between six and 18 months, a lip lift delivers results that can endure for years.
This surgery enhances the fullness, plumpness, and definition of the lips, helping patients achieve their desired aesthetic goals.
In other words, a lip lift is particularly effective in addressing signs of aging by improving the appearance of the upper lip, correcting issues such as a long upper lip, downturned corners, coverage of the upper teeth, or smoker’s lines, which can contribute to an older look.
Bullhorn Lip Lift in Dubai at Amwaj Polyclinic
We at Amwaj Polyclinic specialize in Bullhorn Lip Lift procedures. It is a surgical procedure designed to enhance the lips and create a broader smile by reducing the space between the upper lip and the nostrils. This results in a more revived and youthful appearance.
This popular cosmetic procedure involves making a discreet incision just beneath the nose. The surgeon then elevates the skin to expose more of the lip, achieving a fuller look.
Candidate Criteria for Lip Lift
Lip Lift is generally suitable for all types of people; the following are some of the common criteria that an individual must fulfill:
- People with lines above their lips.
- Suitable for both younger and older patients.
- Individuals seeking a long-lasting solution over regular fillers.
- It is ideal for individuals with a thin upper lip due to genetics or aging.
- Those dissatisfied with filler results, such as a pronounced duck beak appearance.
- Individuals with more than 1.5 cm of space between the upper lip and the base of the nose.
- Candidates should be in good health and ready to quit smoking at least four weeks before and after the procedure.
The Procedure – Bullhorn Lip Lift Surgery in Dubai
The Bullhorn Lip Lift procedure at Amwaj Polyclinic typically takes around 45 minutes and is usually performed under local anesthesia.The steps involved are:
- The incision is then closed with sutures.
- The surgeon cleanses the skin around the lips.
- Local anesthesia is administered to the lips to prevent discomfort or pain.
- The upper lip is then raised to a new, elevated, and reconstructed position.
- A small strip of skin tissue is removed, and the muscles are tightened to achieve a subtle lip lift.
- Once the area is numb, the surgeon makes a bullhorn-shaped incision under the nose, strategically placed to hide within the natural crease.
Post-Procedure Expectations
Normal daily activities should not be resumed within 24 hours of surgery. Exercise should be avoided for at least two weeks to support the healing process. Hot liquids should be avoided for 48 hours, and soft foods are recommended to minimise chewing.
During the healing period, our surgeon may advise patients to limit mouth movements and avoid opening the mouth too wide to keep sutures intact. You are recommended to use a small toothbrush for gentle brushing and keep the lips moisturised with lip balm for up to three to four weeks after surgery.
Recovery Time
Following a lip lift procedure, most patients can return to desk work after three to four days with minimal discomfort. Typically, a week is needed to resume normal activities. Indoor walking is recommended, but more strenuous exercises like aerobics may require additional time. Heavy lifting should be avoided for the first 10 -14 days.
Taking one or two days off from work is advisable to ensure you are presentable before resuming. As the swelling around your lips decreases, the final outcome will become visible within a few weeks.
Benefits of a Lip Lift
A lip lift procedure offers numerous benefits, including:
- Reduces signs of aging on the lips
- Brings lips into proportion with the rest of the face.
- Enhances the appearance of large, saggy upper lips.
- Corrects asymmetry by matching the size of both lips.
Are the Results of a Lip Lift Surgery Permanent?
The results of a lip lift are long-lasting. However, aging is an ongoing process that cannot be stopped.
To maintain the results for as long as possible, it is important to lead a healthy lifestyle, eat a balanced diet, avoid smoking, follow a good skincare routine, and limit sun exposure.
Risks and Safety Considerations
Blepharoplasty is highly safe when performed by a skilled surgeon. However, as with any surgery, potential risks include:
- Temporary blurred vision
- Dry eyes
- Swelling or bruising
- Infection
- Rare asymmetry
Pre-operative assessment and choosing a certified surgeon significantly reduce risk.
Expected results
A lot of people discover that blepharoplasty significantly improves their appearance, particularly if they have very loose upper lid skin or noticeable bags under their eyes. The full healing of incision (cut) lines may take up to a year, but your final results will be visible in a few weeks.
Although blepharoplasty can be expected to permanently correct some conditions, you will still experience the signs of ageing.
