It costs ₹35,000 plus taxes.

## Who is lip reduction for?

- People whose lips look too large or thick for their face
- People with uneven upper and lower lips, or one side larger than the other
- People unhappy with how much of the darker lip area shows

This concern is fairly common among Indian patients. The aim is to keep the natural lip line and facial balance, so careful technique matters.


## How is lip reduction done?

A strip of tissue is removed from the inner, wet side of the lip, and the cut is closed with dissolving stitches. Because the scar sits inside the mouth, it doesn't show. The upper lip, the lower lip or both can be treated.

## Recovery after lip reduction

- **Day 1:** some swelling appears. Ice packs help to reduce it.
- **First few days:** there is only mild discomfort, and no nursing care is needed.
- **Within a few days:** most people return to work.

Eat soft, cool food and rinse your mouth after meals for the first week.
