FAQs
At The Plastic Surgery Center, Kochi, we believe informed patients make confident choices.
Here are answers to the most common questions I receive in consultations
-
As a senior plastic surgeon, I take every step to ensure scars are minimal and well-concealed—usually hidden within the natural creases of the lips. With careful technique and proper healing, any marks tend to fade beautifully over time.
-
Most patients describe the procedure as very tolerable. I use local anesthesia to keep you completely comfortable, and any post-procedure discomfort is usually mild and easily managed with medication.
-
Lip reduction is a quick, outpatient procedure that typically takes less than an hour. You're in and out the same day—with no hospital stay needed.
-
Recovery is generally smooth. Swelling and mild bruising may last for a few days, but most people return to normal activities within a week. I’ll guide you through each step to ensure a safe and comfortable healing process.
-
You’ll be able to speak soon after surgery, though we recommend soft foods for the first 24–48 hours. Most patients resume normal eating and speech within a few days.
-
Absolutely. My goal is always to create results that are balanced and natural-looking—enhancing your features, never altering your unique expression.
-
Stitches are placed inside the lip and are either dissolvable or removed in 5–7 days. I make sure they’re discreet and cause minimal discomfort during healing.
-
Yes, it often is. Depending on your goals, we can combine it with procedures like chin contouring or facial balancing for more harmonious results—all under one expert plan.
-
Yes, lip reduction results are long-lasting and typically do not require further correction. The shape achieved is maintained over time with proper care.
-
Anyone who feels their lips are disproportionately large, or has concerns about balance and proportion, may benefit. I offer personalized consultations to assess your needs and recommend the safest, most effective approach.
Still have questions? I’m happy to help.
