Lip tip surgery Surgical method

After designing considering the philtrum, shape, sagging, and thickness of the corners of the mouth, the mucosa on both sides of the corners of the mouth is excised to correct the shape of the corners of the mouth and the lip line.
Since the incision is made on the inside of the lip, there is almost no visible scar. For those with thick lips, it is recommended to combine this with lip reduction.

We demonstrate our focus, technical expertise, and results in lip tip surgery.

POINT 01
POINT 02

The lips have a relatively thin skin layer, as well as
This is the area where arteries and capillaries flow.

In the case of lip corner correction, while correcting the overall thickness and line of the lips
Because damage to nerves, arteries, etc. must be avoided
The technical skills of the medical staff are of the utmost importance.

A-Top uses a minimal incision of the oral mucosa
To prevent the scar from being exposed to the outside, and
Double suturing reduces the probability of contracture.

To prevent construction

Double microsuture

After lip reshaping surgery, contracture is prone to occur where the sutured area becomes tightly packed, causing the wound to protrude upward.
It begins to appear 2 weeks after surgery and gradually subsides after 3 months.

A-Top performs double micro-sutures to reduce this contracture phenomenon and ensures that symptoms can be alleviated at an earlier stage through post-operative care.
