Prof. Dr. Murat Songu performs this operation with precision to enhance lip shape and improve overall facial harmony.<\/p>\n<p>This technique is ideal for patients with a long philtrum, thin upper lip, or age-related changes. Unlike temporary fillers, a lip lift offers permanent results by exposing more of the upper lip\u2019s vermilion, leading to a fuller and more attractive smile.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of a lip lift in Turkey starts from 5,000 EURO, depending on the patient\u2019s individual needs and the complexity of the procedure. The price generally includes consultation, anesthesia, surgery, and professional post-operative care to ensure optimal recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Recovery after a lip lift is usually fast, with stitches removed within a week and swelling subsiding gradually. Most patients return to daily activities quickly, and the final results become apparent within a few weeks, offering natural and long-lasting enhancement.<\/p>\n<div class=\"pointer-events-none h-px w-px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-edge=\"true\"><\/div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Purpose of the Surgery<\/td>\n<td>To shorten the distance between the nose and the lip so that the upper lip appears more lifted and fuller; to define the lip contour and rejuvenate the smile line. It is especially preferred for individuals with thinning or sagging lips.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Indications<\/td>\n<td>Can be applied when the distance between the nose and the lip is long, when filler procedures do not provide a lasting solution, or when the lips are naturally thin.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pre-operative Preparation<\/td>\n<td>The patient\u2019s general health is assessed before surgery. Blood-thinning medications should be discontinued and smoking stopped. Detailed instructions are given to support the postoperative healing process.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Surgical Technique<\/td>\n<td>The operation is usually performed under local anaesthesia and lasts about one hour. Excess skin is removed via incisions made between the nasal base and the upper lip, and the upper lip is lifted. Incisions are closed carefully so that the scar remains minimal and hidden close to the nasal base.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Recovery Process<\/td>\n<td>Mild swelling and bruising may occur during the first few days. Sutures are usually removed within 5\u20137 days. Full healing and settling of the lip contour may take about 2\u20134 weeks. During this time, careful care of the lip area is required.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Post-operative Care<\/td>\n<td>The suture area should be kept clean, and ointments or creams recommended by the doctor should be used. Movements that strain the lips, bending forward, and very hot drinks should be avoided.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Complications<\/td>\n<td>Risks include infection, bleeding, asymmetry or a permanent scar. However, these risks can be minimised with an experienced surgeon.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Alternative Treatment Options<\/td>\n<td>Temporary and minimally invasive methods such as lip fillers or lip implants can be used to increase lip volume; however, a lip lift offers a more permanent solution.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85

permanent way to achieve fuller lips without the need for temporary fillers. The use of local anaesthesia makes the procedure comfortable for the patient. Moreover, because this method lifts the lips rather than adding volume, it avoids the artificial look sometimes caused by fillers. The main advantages include improving lip shape, achieving better harmony with other facial features, and providing a youthful expression.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provides permanently fuller lips.<\/li>\n<li>Easily performed under local anaesthesia.<\/li>\n<li>Does not create an artificial appearance.<\/li>\n<li>Gives the face balanced and youthful proportions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On the other hand, the procedure has some disadvantages. If too much skin is removed, it can be difficult to reverse. If the upper teeth are not aesthetically ideal, this should be considered beforehand. As with any surgical procedure, a small scar will remain, although it can usually be improved with laser therapy.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Removing too much skin makes reversal difficult.<\/li>\n<li>Alternative methods are advisable if the upper teeth are not aesthetically pleasing.<\/li>\n<li>A minimal scar is inevitable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Effects_and_Longevity_of_Lip_Lift_Surgery\"><\/span>Effects and Longevity of Lip Lift Surgery<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>After a lip lift, patients notice immediate fullness in the lips. Swelling and bruising during the recovery period are normal parts of healing and generally subside completely within three months as scars mature.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Swelling and bruising subside in about three weeks.<\/li>\n<li>Scar maturation occurs in about one month.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Although a lip lift offers long-lasting results, the area is not immune to the natural ageing process. With proper care, however, the aesthetic improvements remain satisfying for many years, which explains the procedure\u2019s popularity.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Suitable_Candidates_for_Lip_Lift_Surgery\"><\/span>Suitable Candidates for Lip Lift Surgery<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A lip lift is ideal for individuals seeking a more attractive smile when the distance between the nose and upper lip is longer than desired. The procedure provides fuller, more appealing lips and creates balanced facial symmetry. Performed under local anaesthesia, it usually takes about an hour and involves a rapid recovery. Suitable candidates include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Those who want to shorten the distance between the lip and the nose.<\/li>\n<li>Individuals unsatisfied with the results of fillers.<\/li>\n<li>People who wish to accentuate their lips in a natural way.<\/li>\n<li>Those seeking a younger look by counteracting ageing effects.<\/li>\n<li>Individuals looking for a permanent solution to avoid repeated filler costs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Variety_of_Lip_Lift_Techniques\"><\/span>Variety of Lip Lift Techniques<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Upper-lip lift surgery is popular in aesthetic practice, designed to give the lips a younger and fuller appearance. Various techniques are applied according to patient needs and aesthetic goals. The Bullhorn lip lift is the most frequently chosen method, removing skin just beneath and to the sides of the nostrils.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bullhorn Lip Lift<\/li>\n<li>Central Lip Lift<\/li>\n<li>Corners of the Mouth Lift<\/li>\n<li>Gullwing Lip Lift<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Each technique enhances the overall aesthetics of the lips and face. Performed under local anaesthesia, these procedures offer minimal discomfort and quick recovery. The choice of method depends on the patient\u2019s existing lip anatomy and desired outcome.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Happens_During_the_Lip_Lift_Surgery_Process\"><\/span>What Happens During the Lip Lift Surgery Process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drmuratsongu.com\/en\/lip-lift-surgery-prices\/\">Lip lift surgery<\/a> is a detailed procedure aimed at improving aesthetic appearance. Before the operation, the surgeon draws a specific shape beneath the nostrils to guide skin removal and enhance lip fullness. The primary steps include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Application of local anaesthesia with lidocaine,<\/li>\n<li>Skin incision and excision,<\/li>\n<li>Securing and suturing the excised skin.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The surgeon carefully excises the marked skin and lifts the upper lip, achieving a shorter upper-lip length. The procedure usually takes about one hour and is pain-free for the patient. Skillful execution restores natural lip appearance while improving symmetry and proportion.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Differences_Between_Lip_Fillers_and_Lip_Lift\"><\/span>Differences Between Lip Fillers and Lip Lift<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Though often confused, lip fillers and lip lifts differ significantly in technique and result. Lip fillers aim to increase lip volume by injecting various filler substances, making the lips fuller and more prominent. In contrast, a lip lift focuses on improving the aesthetic position of the upper lip:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The distance between the upper lip and the nose tip is shortened.<\/li>\n<li>The philtral column becomes more pronounced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A lip lift does not directly add volume; those seeking fuller lips may still require additional fillers. While a lip lift enhances lip contour, fillers boost lip volume. Both procedures improve lip aesthetics but through different approaches.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lip_Aesthetic_Application_Methods_and_Recovery_Process\"><\/span>Lip Aesthetic Application Methods and Recovery Process<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Lip lifting significantly contributes to facial beauty, with technique selection tailored to facial anatomy and aesthetic expectations. The popular Bullhorn technique shortens the distance between the nose and upper lip via an incision under the nose, hiding the scar at the nasal base. Alternatives include the central lip lift (raising only the upper lip), the corner lip lift (correcting drooping lip corners), and the Gullwing lip lift (enhancing thin lips by refining the vermilion border).<br \/>\nOperation time is about one hour under local anaesthesia; recovery varies but is generally complete within a few months. Post-surgery, changes are immediately noticeable, such as a defined Cupid\u2019s bow and greater upper-tooth show, enhancing overall facial aesthetics.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Average_2026_Prices\"><\/span>What Are the Average 2026  Prices?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>Please contact us for the average  prices.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Reviews_from_Those_Who_Had\"><\/span>Reviews from Those Who Had <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p>For patient reviews of Prof. Dr. Murat Songu, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/g.co\/kgs\/LcCKJ89\">Google Maps<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doktortakvimi.com\/murat-songu\/kulak-burun-bogaz\/izmir\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Doktortakvimi<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently_Asked_Questions\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"accordion\">\n\t<div id=\"accordion-173532508\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-173532508-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-who-is-an-ideal-candidate-for-lip-lift-surgery-to-enhance-the-upper-lip?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-173532508-content\">\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"accordion-heading\" role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"3\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_is_an_ideal_candidate_for_lip_lift_surgery_to_enhance_the_upper_lip\"><\/span>Who is an ideal candidate for lip lift surgery to enhance the upper lip?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-173532508-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-173532508-label\">\n\t\t\t\nLip lift surgery is ideal for healthy adults with a long upper lip or limited tooth show who want a more youthful appearance.
