Hello,Lips can be reduced in an office setting. It is done usually under local anesthesia and patients are made quite comfortable. The sutures are placed on the inside portion of the lip to help conceal a scar. Final Results are between 3-6 months. Best, Dr. Anil Shah

Hi thanks for sharing your question. Lip reduction can be done to address your issue. This can be done as an office procedure under local anaesthesia. You can expect swelling for about a week to ten days. It is a very safe procedure in the hands of an experienced board certified plastic surgeon . Good luck.

Lip reduction is a minor surgical procedure that can be performed to reduce the size of your lower lip.  An incision is made on the inner surface of the lip where it is well hidden.  The procedure is typically done under local anesthesia in the office without the need for much pain medication afterwards and discharge home the same day.
