“Helping you have luscious lips”
Lip Surgery
ศัลยกรรมตกแต่งริมฝีปาก
Cheiloplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the patients’ lip shape as desired. It can be performed on both lips: upper and lower. Some patients desire to reshape their lips into the bird wings, in which the surgeon will remove partial excess tissue out of the lip(s).
Lip surgery is done by measuring the original lip shape of the patient together with the new desired one, then the surgeon will design the shape to fit the individual. For the procedure, it starts from injecting an anesthetic at the particular lip, making a slit at the specific spot to create a beautiful shape, and closing the wound with stitches.
