Heart-shaped lip surgery

A well-proportioned, clearly defined heart-shaped lip is a popular cosmetic trend, favored for its ability to make the face more attractive and youthful. However, many people still wonder if heart-shaped lip surgery is safe, how long the results last, and what the cost is. In this article, Dr Xuan Quan Clinic will help you understand the heart-shaped lip procedure and important considerations before undergoing it.

What is heart-shaped lip surgery?

Heart-shaped lip surgery is a cosmetic procedure that adjusts the lip shape to be balanced, clearly defined, and with a center point resembling a heart. This is a popular trend because it makes the face look younger, softer, and more attractive.

• It helps create a more harmonious face: A well-proportioned pair of lips will make the overall facial features more elegant and symmetrical.
• It creates a focal point for the face: A clearly defined upper lip makes the smile look more prominent and attractive.
• Improving lip proportions: Generally, the upper lip should be about 2/3 the thickness of the lower lip to create a natural and harmonious look.
• Making the face look younger and more feminine: Heart-shaped lips often create a soft, fresh look and make the face more vibrant.
• Correcting unbalanced lips: Helps improve cases of thick lips, uneven lips, or lips with unclear lip contours.

Beyond changing the lip shape, creating heart-shaped lips also helps balance and enhance the overall attractiveness of the face if done with the correct proportions for each individual.

Who is suitable for heart-shaped lips?

Not everyone has naturally balanced and well-defined lips. In fact, lips that are too thick, lack curves, or are disproportionate to the face can make the overall face less harmonious.

• Those who want heart-shaped lips, who want to have impressive and sensual lips.
• Those with thick lips or indistinct lip contours.
• Those with unbalanced upper and lower lips.
• Those with coarse lips that make the face less soft.
• Those who desire a more natural and harmonious heart-shaped lip.
• Those who have had previous lip surgery but were not satisfied with the results.

What methods are used to create heart-shaped lips?

Currently, depending on the condition of the lips and the individual’s desires, the doctor will choose the appropriate method to help the lips become more balanced and harmonious with the face.

• Heart-shaped lip surgery: This is the most common method. The doctor will adjust the upper lip to create a clear curve in the middle, giving the lips a more natural heart shape.
• Lip thinning combined with heart-shaped lip surgery: Suitable for people with thick or coarse lips. This method helps to slim the lips while creating a softer, more balanced lip shape.
• Smiling lip corner shaping: Combining slight lifting of the lip corners helps to brighten the face, creating a more youthful and friendly appearance.
• Filler injection for heart-shaped lips: A non-surgical solution, suitable for those who want a slight improvement in lip shape. However, the effect is usually not as long-lasting as surgical methods.

How much does heart-shaped lip surgery cost?

This is one of the issues many customers are concerned about before undergoing cosmetic surgery. In fact, the cost of heart-shaped lip surgery depends on many factors such as:

• Current lip condition
• Degree of cosmetic intervention
• Doctor’s skill
• Technology and techniques applied
• Post-operative care

Currently, the cost of heart-shaped lip surgery usually ranges from 8 to 20 million VND depending on the specific case. For cases with asymmetrical lips or previous surgeries, the price may be higher due to the more complex corrective techniques.

Post-operative Care for Heart-Shaped Lip Surgery

After heart-shaped lip surgery, proper care will help the lips heal quickly, achieve a beautiful and natural shape, and minimize complications. Here are some important things to keep in mind after lip surgery:

• Keep your lips clean: Gently clean your lips as instructed by your doctor to minimize bacteria and aid in the healing process.
• Avoid irritating foods: Avoid spicy foods, seafood, beef, sticky rice, and stimulants in the initial period after surgery.
• Prioritize soft foods: Eat porridge, soup, or other soft foods to minimize strong impact on the lip area.

• Follow-up appointments as scheduled: Patients should attend regular follow-up appointments so that the doctor can monitor their recovery process and address any abnormalities promptly.
