Lip reduction is a plastic surgery procedure that enhances facial appearance by reducing the volume of the lower lip, upper lip, or both lips. In most cases, it requires only local anesthesia, can be completed in less than an hour, and produces permanent results.
Most lip reduction surgeries are completed within 30-60 minutes using only local anaesthesia. This outpatient procedure typically involves:
Swelling and redness can last for a few days, but you should be able to talk and move around more comfortably after this time.
It can take a week or two for the sutures to come out and for your lips to completely heal. While this can seem like a big-time commitment, the time frame is a lot shorter compared to other cosmetic surgeries. As a general rule of thumb, you should expect to take a full week off work.
