Lip Lift (Bullhorn Lift) – For a Naturally Rejuvenated Smile

Lip Lift in Salzburg & Tullnerfeld with Dr. Matthias Spiegl

Why a Lip Lift?

A youthful, well-shaped upper lip contributes significantly to a harmonious facial appearance. With increasing age, the distance between the nose and the lips lengthens, making the lips appear narrower and less prominent.

A surgical Lip Lift (Bullhorn Lift) shortens this distance and gently raises the upper lip. The vermillion (red part of the lip) becomes more visible, the lips look fuller, and the smile is fresher – without fillers or an artificial effect.

The Procedure: Bullhorn Lift for Upper Lip Rejuvenation

In the so-called Bullhorn Lift, a fine strip of skin is removed directly beneath the nose. This slightly raises the upper lip and shortens the nose-to-lip distance.

The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia and takes about one hour. Suction drains are not required.

The scar is inconspicuously placed in the natural fold beneath the nose and is barely visible after complete healing.
