If you are unhappy with the appearance of your upper lip, our highly trained and experienced clinicians at Tracey Bell clinics can help with cosmetic surgical procedures to improve appearance and boost your confidence.
The bullhorn incision, also known as a subnasal lip lift, is a surgical technique that involves removing a small strip of skin and tissue from the area above the upper lip. The incision is made in the shape of a bull’s horns, hence the name. This procedure can elevate the position of the upper lip, reduce the distance between the lip and the nose and can create a more defined Cupid’s bow in the curve of the upper lip.
The lip lift procedure involves removing a small amount of skin from the area between the base of the nose and the upper lip to create a more lifted and defined appearance. This procedure can also reduce the distance between the lip and the nose, and create a more defined Cupid’s bow.
Both the bullhorn incision and lip lift procedure are performed under local anaesthetic, with recovery time typically one to two weeks.
