Eyes and Lips Lift in Dubai

An eyes and lips lift Dubai rejuvenates the two most expressive areas of the face: the eyes and lips. Eyelids can droop and develop excess skin with age, while the upper lip lengthens and loses definition. A lip lift in Dubai, combined with periocular rejuvenation, restores a natural, youthful look without a full facelift.

Dr. Sanjay Parashar, a board-certified surgeon with 30+ years of experience, performs eyes and lips lift at Cocoona Centre Dubai. Some patients need only a lip lift surgery Dubai, others only eyelid rejuvenation, and many benefit from combining both.

Quick Information

Eyes and lips lift is a cosmetic procedure aimed at rejuvenating the upper and lower facial features. It reduces sagging eyelids, under-eye bags, and drooping corners of the mouth, giving a refreshed and youthful appearance.

Surgery Type

Surgical facial rejuvenation combining lip lift surgery and periocular rejuvenation (eyelid skin removal, under-eye correction).

Recovery Time

Most patients resume normal activities within 7 to 10 days. Swelling and bruising around the lip and eye areas resolve within 2 to 3 weeks. Final results are visible at 4 to 6 weeks.

Anaesthesia

Performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia depending on the procedure and patient preference.

Duration

1 to 3 hours, depending on whether lip lift only, eye rejuvenation only, or both are performed in the same session.

What Is an Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai?

The eyes and lips lift Dubai, which combines two distinct facial rejuvenation procedures. They address the periocular (eye) and perioral (lip) areas, the regions most responsible for a tired or heavy facial appearance. Each procedure can be performed independently or together in a single session.

What Is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a short surgical procedure that shortens the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip border. It is also known as the philtrum. As we age, this distance lengthens, and the lip appears thinner and more downturned. 

The most commonly performed technique is the bullhorn lip lift, named for the characteristic shape of the incision hidden. Dr Sanjay also performs the upper lip lift for patients who need more targeted correction.

What Is an Eyes Lift?

The eyes lift, or periocular rejuvenation, addresses sagging skin on the upper eyelids, puffiness or excess skin on the lower eyelids. This can involve upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or a combination of both. The result is a brighter, more open, and more rested eye appearance. For patients whose primary concern is the eyelids specifically, Dr Sanjay’s dedicated Blepharoplasty page provides detailed information on eyelift procedures.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai?

An eyes and lips lift Dubai is suitable for patients bothered by age-related changes around the eyes and lips. It cannot be fully addressed with non-surgical treatments.

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Have a lengthened upper lip philtrum, making the lip appear thin and the teeth less visible.
  • Want to improve upper lip definition and natural curl without lip fillers.
  • Have drooping or hooded upper eyelid skin that makes the eyes appear smaller or tired.
  • Have under-eye bags or lower eyelid laxity causing a persistently tired appearance.
  • Are in good overall health with no conditions affecting healing around the eyes or lips.
  • A non-smoker or willing to stop smoking 3 to 4 weeks before surgery
  • Have realistic expectations, understanding that a lip lift scar fades over 3 to 6 months and is usually undetectable.

Benefits of Eyes and Lips Lift Surgery in Dubai

Here are all the benefits of eyes and lips lift Dubai that are given below:

  • Permanently Improved Lip Definition: A lip lift creates lasting improvement in lip shape, curl, and upper tooth show that temporary lip fillers cannot replicate.
  • More Youthful, Open Eye Appearance: Removing excess eyelid skin and addressing under-eye concerns restores a brighter, more rested look.
  • Subtle and Natural Results: Lip lift surgery and eyelid rejuvenation refresh your features without drastic changes, giving a naturally younger appearance.
  • Minimally Visible Scarring: The bullhorn lip lift scar is hidden in the nose crease; eyelid incisions are concealed within natural folds.
  • Combined Procedure Efficiency: Performing lip lift and eye rejuvenation together requires only one anaesthesia and one recovery period.
  • Long-Lasting Results: Unlike fillers, lip lift surgery results are permanent, lasting as long as the natural ageing process permits.

Improved Facial Balance: Refreshing both eyes and lips together creates a harmonious and balanced facial appearance.

The Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai Procedure in: Step by Step

Consultation and Facial Analysis

Your journey begins with a consultation where Dr. Sanjay evaluates philtrum length, lip shape, eyelid skin, and under-eye anatomy. He explains whether lip lift, eye rejuvenation, or both combined is best, along with incision placement, scar location, and recovery timeline.

Anesthesia

The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia at a DHA-licensed facility in Dubai.

Lip Lift Procedure

A bullhorn-shaped incision is made in the natural crease at the base of the nose. A measured strip of skin is removed, and the upper lip is lifted, enhancing lip curl and upper tooth display.

Eyes Lift Procedure

Excess skin is removed from the upper eyelids via the eyelid crease, leaving an invisible scar. Lower eyelid corrections are done through a sub-lash or transconjunctival incision, creating a smooth, natural under-eye contour.

Closure

All incisions are closed with fine, absorbable or removable sutures, and gentle dressings are applied. The full combined procedure takes 1 to 3 hours.

Preparation Before Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai

  • Complete a medical evaluation and blood tests as required by the Cocoona Dubai clinical team.
  • Stop smoking at least 3 to 4 weeks before surgery to ensure proper healing and reduce scarring risk.
  • Discontinue blood-thinning medications and supplements (aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, fish oil) at least 2 weeks prior.
  • Avoid alcohol for at least one week before surgery.
  • Remove contact lenses before surgery if eye procedures are planned; keep glasses handy for recovery.
  • Arrange for someone to drive home and assist for the first 24–48 hours post-surgery.

Follow fasting instructions nothing to eat or drink 6–8 hours before general anaesthesia if required.

Aftercare After Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai

  • Apply cold compresses to the eye area to reduce swelling and bruising in the first 48 to 72 hours.
  • Keep the head elevated when resting to avoid lying flat for the first 3 to 5 days.
  • Follow a soft diet for the first 5 to 7 days to avoid excessive movement of the lip.
  • Keep lip and eye incision sites clean and dry; follow Dr Sanjay’s wound care instructions.
  • Avoid wearing contact lenses for 1 to 2 weeks if eye procedures were performed.
  • Apply scar management treatments to the lip lift incision once fully healed.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise and activities that raise facial blood pressure for 2–3 weeks.
  • Attend all follow-up appointments at Cocoona Dubai — Dr. Sanjay monitors healing and scar quality personally.

Eyes and Lips Lift Dubai Recovery: What to Expect

Days 1 to 7: First Week

Swelling, bruising, and mild tightness around the eyes and lips are normal in the first week.
Lip swelling is most noticeable in the first 3 to 5 days, and most desk-based patients return to work within 7 to 10 days.

Weeks 2 to 3: Rapid Improvement

By the end of week two, most swelling and bruising around the eyes and lips clears. The lip lift and improved eyelid contoumore r become visible, and the incision line starts fading.

Weeks 4 to 6: Final Results Visible

Final eyes and lips lift Dubai results appear at 4 to 6 weeks once swelling resolves. The lip lift scar continues fading over 3 to 6 months, revealing lasting lip definition and a refreshed eye appearance.

Lip Lift and Eyes Lift Cost in Dubai

The cost of eyes and lips lift Dubai varies and cannot be fixed without a personal consultation. Factors include whether only a lip lift, eye rejuvenation, or both are done in one session. The technique used bullhorn, upper lip lift, or modified approach, also affects cost.

Anaesthesia type, facility fees at Cocoona Dubai, and pre- and post-operative care are included in the calculation. Lip reduction surgery cost in Dubai is separate and quoted individually. Dr Sanjay provides a transparent, itemised breakdown with no hidden charges.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is a bullhorn lip lift?

The bullhorn lip lift uses a curved incision at the base of the nose to shorten the philtrum symmetrically.

How is a bullhorn lip lift different from a regular lip lift?

A regular upper lip lift may use a shorter or more targeted incision. At Cocoona Dubai, the technique depends on philtrum length and desired lift.

Does a lip lift leave a scar?

Yes, a lip lift leaves a fine scar in the natural crease under the nose. Proper care ensures minimal visibility.

What does a lip lift before and after look like?

Lip lift before and after results show more upper lip show, a defined vermillion, and a shorter philtrum for a youthful mouth area.

What is the difference between a lip lift and lip fillers?

A lip lift permanently lifts the upper lip and restores curl. Lip fillers add temporary volume lasting 6 to 12 months.

Who should get a lip lift instead of fillers?

Lip lift suits patients with a flat or downturned upper lip, not just volume loss. Fillers are for volume enhancement.
