What is Lip Correction?

Lip correction is a cosmetic or reconstructive procedure aimed at improving the shape, size, symmetry, and function of the lips. Whether addressing congenital concerns, trauma, or age-related changes, lip correction delivers natural-looking results that harmonize the lower and upper facial features.

Overview

We approach lip correction as both an art and a science. Our goal is to achieve balanced proportions, refined contours, and functional improvement when needed. Treatments range from minimally invasive fillers to surgical adjustments, depending on individual needs and desired outcomes.

  • Asymmetrical lips or uneven vermilion border
