Lip lift surgery

At Clínica 3 de Mayo, led by Dr. Jesús Lago in Madrid, we offer the upper lip lift as an effective solution for patients who want to shorten the nasolabial fold, show slightly more of the red lip, and achieve a fresher, more youthful expression without losing naturalness. With a fixed price of €1,500, this procedure has become one of the most sought-after cosmetic procedures due to its precision, subtlety, and quick recovery time.

What is an upper lip lift?

An upper lip lift, also known as a lip lift, is a minor surgical procedure that involves shortening the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip. This change improves the aesthetics of the smile and provides a more youthful, balanced, and harmonious appearance of the middle third of the face.

In expert hands, this surgery achieves:

  • Greater exposure of the vermilion (pink area of the lip).
  • A more defined upper lip contour.
  • A more aesthetic and proportionate smile.
  • Rejuvenation of the perioral area.

What is the procedure like?

An upper lip lift is an outpatient surgery performed under local anesthesia. It lasts approximately 40 to 60 minutes.

Main steps:

  • Personalized design of the area to be treated.
  • Local anesthesia in the filtrum and nasal base area.
  • Millimetric resection of excess skin.
  • Fine, strategic suture under the nasal base.
  • Quick recovery with simple care guidelines.


The scar is hidden in the natural crease under the nose, making it virtually imperceptible over time.

Recovery

Recovery is quick and relatively painless. Most patients can return to their daily routine within 24–48 hours.

General instructions:

  • Avoid exaggerated facial expressions for the first few days.
  • Keep the area clean and free of makeup until the stitches are removed.
  • Apply intermittent cold compresses.
  • Follow all the guidelines recommended by Dr. Lago.


The initial swelling gradually subsides, and the full results are visible after four to six weeks.

Results

The results of a lip lift are natural, harmonious, and permanent. The lip looks more defined, youthful, and proportionate, with greater vermilion presence and a more aesthetic smile.
