LIP REDUCTION SURGERY
Lip reduction surgery is a cosmetic procedure that reduces the size of one or both lips. This is usually done to balance the proportions of the face and achieve a more aesthetically pleasing look. The procedure involves making incisions inside the mouth or on the lip, and removing excess tissue. The procedure can be performed under local or general anesthesia and results in a more proportionate and attractive lip appearance. Recovery time is typically 1-2 weeks.
