For a youthful, harmonious lip profile

In contrast to filler treatments, this method produces long-lasting, natural results and can have a positive effect on the overall facial profile.
What is a lip lift?
or bullhorn lip lift
The lip lift is a small but effective procedure in which a narrow strip of skin is removed below the nose. This shortens the distance between the nose and upper lip - the lips appear fuller, more youthful and better proportioned.
The term "bullhorn lift" refers to the shape of the incision, which resembles a stylized bull's horn and exactly follows the natural shape of the nose. The scar is barely visible later on.
Procedure of the Liplift treatment:
A lip lift is performed on an outpatient basis and under local anesthesia.
The procedure takes about 45-60 minutes. You can return to your everyday life just a few days after the operation - with the first visible results.
The stitches are removed after about a week. Slight swelling or feelings of tension are normal and subside quickly.
