Hello Interloper!

What is the process like?A lip lift can be done under local anaesthetic (unless the patient has real objection to this, in which case it can be done under general). The area to be removed will be drawn on the skin and we can pinch the area to show the effect. The marked up skin is then removed. The trickiest part of this operation stitching everything back together. We have to do this in layers so it looks natural and use certain techniques so it doesn’t pull on the nose.
The operation takes roughly 45 minutes to 1 hour and you’ll have stitches that will need to be removed after a week.
