Upper lip shortening is a relatively simple procedure that has the effect of shortening the distance between the nose and the lip border.
What is a Lip Lift?
Lip lift surgery is a cosmetic procedure aimed at enhancing the appearance of the lips by raising the upper lip to reshape the contour.
Bullhorn Lip Lift
This technique involves shortening the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip, for a more defined Cupid's bow. It is particularly effective for individuals with a long or thin upper lip.
Corner Lip Lift
Designed to address downturned corners of the mouth, the corner lip lift or gullwing lip lift procedure lifts and reshapes the outer corners of the lips for an uplifted lip expression. By restoring the natural curvature of the lips, this technique can help counteract signs of ageing and enhance overall facial harmony.
What Can Lip Lift Surgery Treat?
- Thin or elongated upper lip
- Flat or undefined Cupid's bow
- Sagging or drooping upper lip
- Imbalance between the upper and lower lip proportions
Benefits of a Lip Lift Procedure
- Enhanced lip definition and fullness

Treatment Process
Consultation
Your lip lift journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where you'll have the opportunity to discuss your concerns, goals, and expectations with one of our expert practitioners. We'll evaluate your facial anatomy and medical history to determine if you're a suitable candidate for a bullhorn lip lift, gullwing lip lift, or Italian lip lift procedure.
Procedure
On the day of your upper lip lift procedure, you'll receive personalised care in our state-of-the-art facility. The surgical procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia to ensure your comfort. Using advanced techniques, our skilled cosmetic surgeon will carefully sculpt and reshape your upper lip to achieve your desired results.
Recovery
Lip lifting is a surgery that generally has a very quick recovery time. Following your lip lift procedure, you may experience some swelling and bruising, which is normal and should subside within a few days.
Most patients can resume their daily activities within a week, although strenuous exercise and exposure to direct sunlight should be avoided during the initial healing period. As swelling diminishes, you'll begin to notice the natural-looking results of your lip lift, with full effects becoming apparent within a few weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
While the results of a lip lift are long-lasting, the natural ageing process and lifestyle factors can affect the appearance of your lips over time. However, many patients enjoy the benefits of their lip shape for years to come.
Our skilled cosmetic surgery practitioners employ advanced techniques to minimise scarring and ensure discreet, natural-looking results. Any lip lift scar will typically fade over time and is easily concealed with makeup.
The lip lifting procedure is performed under local anaesthesia to ensure your comfort during treatment. While some discomfort or swelling may occur during the initial recovery period, a lip lift is generally well-tolerated with minimal recovery time.
While you may experience some initial swelling and bruising, you'll begin to see noticeable results within a few weeks as the healing process progresses. Full results typically become apparent once the swelling has subsided, revealing a new upper lip contour.
Like all surgical procedures, upper lip lifts carry a small risk of potential complications, such as infection or adverse reactions to anaesthesia. However, these risks are rare, and our experienced plastic surgeon takes every precaution to ensure your safety and satisfaction throughout your lip lift journey.
