The goal is to improve facial balance while maintaining a natural lip contour. Depending on your needs, the procedure may be performed on the upper lip, lower lip, or both to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1308\" data-end=\"1538\">The surgery is performed using advanced techniques that place incisions inside the lips, making visible scarring virtually unnoticeable.
