Surgical Lip Lift

Often called a "bullhorn lift," this procedure removes a small strip of skin from just beneath the nose. It shortens a long philtrum and naturally rolls the upper lip outward, creating a permanently fuller, youthful pout without the need for injectable fillers.

Step 1: Virtual Facial Assessment

Connect with a board-certified Colombian plastic surgeon via PlacidWay. Send high-resolution photos of your face and lips for a remote evaluation. The doctor will discuss your aesthetic goals, recommend the right technique (lift, reduction, or fat transfer), and provide a customized quote.

Step 2: Arrival & Pre-Op Consultation

Upon arriving in cities like Medellin or Bogota, you will attend an in-person clinic visit. The surgeon will physically examine your lip structure, review your medical history, draw surgical markings, and finalize the surgical plan before proceeding.

Step 3: The Surgical Procedure

Lip surgery is typically performed on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia with sedation, taking between 1 to 2 hours. Depending on the plan, the surgeon will delicately remove excess tissue for a reduction, excise skin for a lift, or inject purified fat for volume.

Step 4: Initial Recovery & Suture Care

You will spend the next few days relaxing at your accommodation in Colombia. Swelling and bruising are normal. Around day 5 to 7, you will return to the clinic for a check-up and, if you had a lip lift, the removal of fine external sutures.

Step 5: Journey Home & Final Results

Once cleared by your surgeon, you can safely fly home. While initial swelling subsides within two weeks, the refined shape and permanent aesthetic outcome of your lip surgery will continue to improve and settle perfectly over the next few months.

"I was exhausted from getting temporary fillers that eventually migrated and looked unnatural. I decided to travel to Medellin for a permanent bullhorn lip lift. The surgeon was an absolute artist. He shortened my philtrum perfectly, and the tiny scar under my nose is completely invisible now. I finally have the natural, pouty upper lip I always wanted."

"I struggled for years with lips that felt too large for my facial structure. The cost of reduction surgery in the US was just out of reach. Going to Bogota was the best decision I ever made. The clinic was pristine, the staff was so caring, and the results of my lip reduction are flawless. The incisions were all hidden inside my mouth, and the balance it brought to my face is life-changing."
