Lip Reduction Surgery in Dubai:

Cheloplasty or lip reduction surgery decreases the size of the lips by removing a part of the tissue or mucosal layer. Our lips contain two parts: the inner wet(pink portion and the outer wet(pigmented portion). A larger inner portion may result in unpleasing large lips, but lip reduction technique can carefully alter that portion for a perfect lip shape. 

Types of Lip Reduction Surgery:

Global Lip Reduction:

Global lip reduction alters the entire lip structure, and it is ideal for those who want to reduce their overall volume and desire a symmetrical shape. 

Localized Lip Reduction:

This cosmetic lip surgery only focuses on specific areas like the centre or corners to create a balanced appearance according to other facial features. 

Brazilian Reduction:

Brzilinans desire to get a slimmer lower lip and pouty upper lip for a triangular look, so this technique only modifies the lower lip to create a defined vermilion. 

Cost:

Lip reduction cost starts from 5500 AED and goes up to 8000 AED, depending on the overall lip condition and their number. The exact charges are presented below:
