Patient reviews

My upper lip always looked thin, and fillers only lasted at most six months. I got tired of constantly going back for touch-ups. The surgeon explained how cheiloplasty differs from injections and suggested a suitable volume. After healing, my lip looks naturally fuller, with no 'duck lip' effect.

Zhanna R. Almaty

With age, the corners of my mouth started noticeably drooping, making my face look more tired and stern than it actually was. At the consultation we discussed exactly what could be corrected. The surgery went according to plan, and the scar is already barely visible. My expression looks softer now.

Serik M. Astana

The asymmetry in my upper lip was visible in close-up photos, though few people noticed it in person. I decided to look into it at a consultation, and the surgeon showed photos of similar cases and the expected result. Recovery took about a week and a half, and the result looks harmonious without looking obviously 'done'.

Frequently asked questions

How is cheiloplasty different from lip filler?

Fillers give a temporary effect and need repeating. Cheiloplasty is a surgical correction with a lasting result.

Will there be a visible scar?

The incision sits at the base of the nose and becomes barely visible once healed.

How long does recovery take?

Most swelling subsides within one to two weeks; the exact timeline depends on the scope of correction.
