Silicone Removal from the Lips

The removal of silicone fillers from the lips is a surgical or minimally invasive procedure that allows patients to restore the natural form of their lips.

This procedure is intended for people who are dissatisfied with the aesthetic result, have irregularities, asymmetry, or complications after permanent fillers.

At Medical Time hospital, a precise removal technique is used with minimal trauma to the surrounding tissue.

The goal is to achieve the most natural look possible while preserving the function and expression of the lips.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and lasts about 30 to 60 minutes.

Patients most often return to their daily activities after just a few days.

Our expert team has experience in corrections after inadequate aesthetic interventions.

Who are the candidates for silicone removal from the lips?

Candidates are people who previously had permanent fillers in their lips and now want to remove them for aesthetic or health reasons.

The most common reasons include asymmetry, silicone migration, granulomas, or excessive lip size.

It is important that the filler is fully integrated and that there are no signs of acute infection at the time of the intervention.

The removal can also be a preparation for a new, more natural aesthetic correction with hyaluronic acid.

Consultation with a specialist is key to assessing the removal method (surgical or extraction).

Medical Time approaches each patient individually with a clear plan and detailed explanations.

Methods of removing silicone from the lips

There are two basic methods of removal – minimally invasive extraction and surgical excision.

For smaller amounts of silicone, a needle or a small incision is used for material aspiration.

The surgical method involves the precise removal of silicone deposits through tiny incisions inside the lips.

At Medical Time, magnification with a loupe and microsurgical instruments are used for maximum precision.

The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, under local anesthesia, and lasts 30–60 minutes.

After the intervention, mild swelling and bruising are possible and pass quickly.

The goal is to achieve the most natural shape possible without permanent scars or deformities.

Recovery after silicone removal

Mild swelling and discomfort are normal in the first few days after the procedure.

Patients are advised to avoid exercise, hot food, and kissing for 5–7 days.

Cold compresses and antibiotic ointment can be used for accelerated healing.

Sutures (if any) are removed after 5 to 7 days, and in some cases, resorbable materials are used.

Return to daily activities is possible very quickly, most often after 48 hours.

Patients are followed up through check-ups to assess the aesthetic result and tissue recovery.

The results are permanent, and additional corrections are possible after complete healing.
