Lip Reduction Surgery in Delhi

Large or overly fat lips might be a source of shame or lack of self-confidence. This surgery also corrects the upper and bottom big lips (oversized lips), and it also corrects the hanging down lips. The lip reduction surgery helps make the lips thinner by removing the excess mucous membrane, present inside the lips to reduce the lip size. The stitches are made inside the mouth, and there will be no visible scars after the surgery. The stitches used in the surgery are generally dissolvable.

After the surgery, the lips appear larger and swelled up, but this resolves over a period of about a week, and patients are recommended to eat soft food for several days for early healing. One can see the final outcome when the swelling completely subsides, and this can happen anywhere after about 3 weeks to 4 months of the treatment.

The lip reduction surgery is not only performed for aesthetic reasons but also corrects the functional ones. The people born with misshapen lips often face problems while chewing food, speaking, salivary secretion control, and in making a facial expression. All these problems can be dealt with lip reduction surgery.

Lip reduction is the safest surgery, but it should be done by an experienced surgeon to deliver the best results. Patients may experience mild redness, swelling, and pain during the first few days after the procedure. Some rare complications are as follows:

• Bruising.
• Infection.
• Poor healing.
• Scarring.
• Asymmetry.
• Severe swelling

But following proper aftercare and guidelines provided by the surgeon, one can reduce the risk of getting these complications.
