How Much is Lip Reduction for Naturally Big Lips? Can This Surgery Give Lips a Better Shape Too?

large lips can be reduced by cutting out a segment of the lip from the inside.  This way there is no visible scar.  Cost would vary depending on the particular situation and whether only one lip needs to be reduced or both.

Lip reduction surgery is used to reduce the volume of the lip. Given the existing asymmetry of the lips, lip reduction surgery is never perfect and the existing asymmetry will remain. The procedure can improve the shape of the lips. The cost varies and depends on the surgeon, location of the surgery (office vs Hospital) etc. The average cost is about $3500 in the Atlanta area (if performed by a Plastic Surgeon)

Yes it is possible to both reduce and shape your lips. I typically do it as an office procedure.

 

Thank you for your question. Yes, lip reduction can reduce the volume of the lips (more commonly the lower lip, but sometimes both upper and lower).  In addition, carefully placed excisions can be used to add shape to the lips.  Often, when the lips are overly flat or lacking in contour, combination treatment is needed. For some patients, this includes an upper lip lift and a lower lip reduction.  Regardless, find a surgeon who is comfortable with and enjoys doing lip surgery to get the best results possible.

      Lip reduction can both reduce the size of the lips and change lip shape.  The surgery is never perfect, and there will always be some irregularity in lip shape.  Find someone who has performed this procedure many times.

There are a couple of ways to reduce the lips. If you
have a dermal filler in your lips that you are looking to dissolve, then
vitrase or hyaluronidase injections can do this. If you are just looking
to reduce the size of your natural lips, lip reduction surgery is
necessary. Make sure to go to a provider who has experience in both lip
reductions and contouring of the lip shape.
