Lip augmentation by WY or VY plasty

SURGICAL METHODS WITH PERMANENT EFECT

WY AND VY PLASTY outpatient operations inside the lips increase the volume and the pink surface area permanently with a very good and stable result. Dr. Serdev’s modified method allows for maximum increase, even with thin lips, and reduces trauma. Lips heal fast for 3-5 days. Hyposensitivity could persist no more than 2-3 months that is the only inconvenience, but the result is permanent without using foreign bodies. This operation should be performed by qualified cosmetic surgeon.

LIP MARGIN SKIN EXCISION gives poor results with visible scars and should be abandoned.
