This surgical procedure effectively shortens the upper lip area to increase tooth show, enhance lip symmetry, and provide a more youthful, balanced facial appearance.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Philtrum length:</strong> Distance from nose base to lip border exceeding 12 to 15 millimeters.</li> <li><strong>Upper tooth show:</strong> Minimal or no visible upper teeth when the mouth is at rest.</li> <li><strong>Lip proportion:</strong> Thin upper lips that lack definition or appear flat compared to the lower.</li> <li><strong>Surgical readiness:</strong> Non-smokers with good skin elasticity and no active oral infections or cold sores.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> Korean clinics like VG Plastic Surgery and URBAN Plastic Surgery specialize in philtrum reduction for younger patients. While Western patients often wait until their 40s to address aging, many in Seoul undergo this at age 20. This preventative approach focuses on achieving a specific idol-like pout rather than just reversing sagging.</p> <p><strong>Patient Consensus:</strong> Many patients recommend using 3D simulations before surgery to prevent over-shortening. They often report that the procedure provides a more natural, permanent shape than fillers, especially for those with flatter philtral ridges.</p>","is_active":true,"category":{"id":"68f5f2ea1567cb687e0a7542","name":"faq_content","title":"faq_content"}},{"id":"69b09782dc72dba5d50735a5","question":"How long do international patients need to stay in Korea after surgery?","answer":"<p>International patients undergoing a lip lift in the Republic of Korea typically stay for 7 to 10 days. This duration ensures enough time for initial healing, mandatory follow-up appointments, and professional stitch removal, which usually occurs between day 5 and day 7 post-op.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Travel timeframe:</strong> Plan for 7–10 days total to cover surgery and recovery.</li> <li><strong>Stitch removal:</strong> Surgeons usually remove sutures between day 5 and day 7.</li> <li><strong>Pre-op arrival:</strong> Arrive 1–2 days early for consultations and required blood tests.</li> <li><strong>Flight safety:</strong> Wait at least 7 days before flying to manage altitude pressure.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Bookimed Expert Insight:</strong> While many clinics like Dr. Tak Plastic Surgery offer outpatient procedures, the most successful recoveries involve staying within the Gangnam district. Our data shows that patients who choose clinics with comprehensive post-operative care centers tend to manage the peak swelling on days 4–5 much more comfortably than those traveling long distances daily.</p> <p><strong>Patient Consensus:</strong> Most patients recommend staying at least 7 days to ensure stitches are out before flying.
