Cheiloplasty is recommended for people with thin and expressionless lips. Additional indications:
- Discrepancy between the sizes of the upper and lower lips
- Ugly smile
- Presence of scars and other defects
Cheiloplasty is not performed in the presence of inflammatory processes on the facial skin and against the background of the development of an active form of herpes. Patients with diabetes and lupus erythematosus should always consult with their doctor before surgery.
Injection methods for lip correction can not only change their shape and volume, but also restore their youth.
One of the main drugs used in this procedure is hyaluronic acid. This natural component is able to retain moisture, making lips more elastic.
Another method of injection correction is lipofilling. This procedure uses the patient's fat, for example taken from the abdominal area. After processing and cleaning, it is injected into the lips.
Techniques for lip augmentation and correction
There are many professional lip surgery techniques that allow you to achieve an ideal result.
All types of interventions are performed under local anesthesia. In some cases, additional sedation is required to reduce pain. A long stay in the clinic after the procedure is usually not required.
Basic lip surgery techniques:
- Classical technique It involves making small incisions on the mucous membrane of the lip. Next, correction and fixation are carried out.
- Paris technique It complements the classic technique with a horizontal incision, making the lip contour more clear.
- Resection DAO This technique is aimed at correcting drooping corners of the lips.
- Corner elevator This is a complex procedure that includes correction of the skin and deep muscle layers.
- Reduction technique It involves removing part of the skin from the central part of the lips.
Other techniques
There are other techniques for lip augmentation and correction. Specialists especially highlight 3 methods.
Bulhorn ("bull's horn")
This technique is aimed at reducing the distance between the upper border of the lips and the nose. This method allows you to achieve the effect of facial rejuvenation.
During the operation, the surgeon makes an incision under the nose and removes a small strip of tissue resembling the shape of a bull's horn. After this, the upper lip rises and its edge turns slightly outward. Against this background, visually it becomes more complete.
Kesselring
This technique allows you to increase the volume of the upper or lower lip. During the procedure, the surgeon removes a thin strip of tissue. After this, the lip is partially turned out and fixed in place.
The seams are made carefully along the contour of the lips. This minimizes the risk of visible scars.
VY plastic
This method is aimed at increasing lip volume using the patient's own tissue.
The process involves the surgeon making V-shaped incisions on the lip. Then, using absorbable sutures, he sutures the incisions so that the lip takes on a Y-shape. This allows for additional volume to be added.

About the service
Хейлопластика - что это такое? Это хирургическое вмешательство, целью которого является коррекция эстетики верхней и нижней губы, модификация их формы, объема и размеров, а также устранение возможных деформаций.
Для достижения желаемого результата проводится иссечение участка кожи или смещение слизистой. В отличие от методов контурной пластики, предполагающих применение филлеров, результаты хейлопластики остаются на протяжении всей жизни пациента.
