What is Lip Reduction Surgery?
Lip reduction surgery, also called reduction cheiloplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that helps make your lips smaller and more balanced. During the surgery, a doctor removes extra skin and tissue from your upper, lower, or both lips.
The procedure is quick, safe, and done to improve the shape and size of your lips. Since lips are a noticeable part of your face, changing how they look can help boost your confidence and how you feel about your appearance.
How Common is Lip Reduction Surgery?
Lip reduction surgery is less common than lip augmentation. While many people choose to enhance their lips by adding volume, fewer opt for reduction procedures to decrease lip size or reshape them.

Examine your lips and discuss your goals.
Explain the procedure and answer your questions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Rhinoplasty, commonly called a nose job, is a cosmetic and/or functional procedure to reshape the nose. It can enhance facial appearance or correct structural issues that affect breathing.
People choose rhinoplasty for several reasons:
- To improve the aesthetic appearance of their nose (shape, size, or symmetry)
- To correct congenital defects or nasal deformities
To fix breathing issues caused by conditions like a deviated septum
Cosmetic rhinoplasty focuses on enhancing the nose’s appearance, while functional rhinoplasty is performed to resolve breathing problems by correcting internal nasal structures.
There are two approaches:
- Closed rhinoplasty: Incisions are made inside the nose with no visible scarring.
- Open rhinoplasty: A small incision is made on the columella (the tissue between nostrils) for better access to the nasal structure.
Dr. Goyal will determine the best approach based on your anatomy and desired results.
The procedure is performed under general anesthesia or sedation, so there is no pain during surgery. Some swelling, bruising, or discomfort may occur afterward, which can be managed with medication.
- 1–2 weeks: Most swelling and bruising subside.
- 3–6 months: Nose shape continues to refine.
- Up to 1 year: Final results are visible as tissues fully heal.
Yes, the results are typically long-lasting. However, natural aging and skin changes over time may slightly affect the appearance of the nose.
Yes, functional rhinoplasty can correct structural issues such as a deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, or nasal valve collapse, leading to improved breathing.
