Upper Lip Lift: Plastic Surgery Royal✓

In modern plastic surgery, one of the most sought-after goals among patients is achieving a youthful, fresh, and harmonious appearance of the face. Among the many treatments and procedures offered today, upper lip lift – or the surgical lip lift – is becoming an increasingly popular choice, especially among those looking for long-lasting and natural results.

Unlike fillers that provide instant but temporary effects, the lip lift offers a permanent aesthetic result, with precision and subtlety that doesn't change the face – it harmonizes and refreshes it. In this article, we reveal what a lip lift is, what the procedure entails, who it's intended for, how much it costs, what the recovery process is like, and – most importantly – what the experiences of patients who have chosen this treatment are like.

What is a Lip Lift and Who is it For?

A lip lift is an aesthetic procedure aimed at shortening the distance between the nose and the upper lip (the so-called philtrum), lifting the lip upwards, and revealing more of the red part of the lip, making it visually fuller and more pronounced.

As we age, the skin loses its elasticity, the philtrum naturally elongates, and the upper lip drops, often covering the upper teeth and giving the face a tired, closed expression. A lip lift doesn't increase the volume of the lips; instead, it restores their youthful position and reveals their natural fullness, often entirely without the need for fillers.

This procedure is ideal for:

• People with a long philtrum who want a more harmonious relationship between the nose and lips

• Those who want naturally fuller lips without the use of fillers

• Individuals dissatisfied with the results of previous aesthetic treatments

• Older patients looking to regain a youthful appearance

• People seeking a permanent solution instead of repeating treatments every few months

Upper lip lift is more than just an aesthetic procedure – it’s a step toward regaining self-confidence, a youthful appearance, and a natural expression, achieved with minimal incisions and precise surgical techniques. When done expertly, the result is subtle, and the change is refreshingly visible.

What Does the Lip Lift Procedure Involve?

Fear of surgical procedures often stems from a lack of knowledge – but the lip lift falls into the category of fast, safe, and minimally invasive aesthetic interventions. Understanding the process itself can help you feel more confident and decisive if you're considering this step.

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia, meaning the patient remains awake but feels no pain. The surgeon makes a small incision under the nose, in the natural groove (shaped like a "bullhorn" curve), removes excess skin, and precisely lifts the upper lip. The scar is hidden and becomes almost invisible after the healing period.

Duration: about 60 minutes

Anesthesia: local

Recovery time: 5–10 days

Back to work: after 5 days, with light makeup for camouflage

After just a few days, patients notice a significant difference – the lip is lifted, the teeth are more visible when speaking and smiling, and the overall facial expression looks more open and brighter.

Lip Lift Experiences

One of the most important factors when deciding on an aesthetic procedure is the experiences of other patients. Real experiences speak louder than any theory or statistics.

At Royal Plastic Surgery Belgrade, we take pride in our transparent relationship with patients. Here's what some of them have shared:

“For years I had fillers, but the results were never long-lasting. After my lip lift with Dr. Marko, I finally have the lips I’ve always wanted – naturally full, but not overdone. The result is discreet, but it changed everything for me.”
– Alessandra, 34

“I’m 52, and my upper lip was practically covering my teeth. I felt older than I am. After my lip lift, people tell me I look 10 years younger. The surgery lasted less than an hour, and the scar is invisible.”
– Iris, 52

“Thanks to the Royal team, my recovery was easy, and the support was amazing. They explained everything to me beforehand and didn’t try to 'sell' me anything. The result exceeded all my expectations.”
– Magdalena, 41

The experiences of our patients speak to one thing – the lip lift is not just an aesthetic procedure, it’s a transformation that restores smiles and confidence. And that’s priceless.
