The lips are a defining feature of the face — and a properly executed lip lift can restore youthful proportions and refined contour with results that read as natural rather than surgical. For Russian patients considering lip lift surgery, the choice of an internationally credentialed plastic surgeon with significant experience treating discerning international clientele matters meaningfully for the result. Dr. John Anastasatos at Los Angeles Plastic Surgery offers lip lift and lip augmentation surgery to Russian patients at his clinics in Athens, Greece, and Beverly Hills, California — both destinations regularly chosen by Russian clientele seeking discreet, world-class plastic surgery.

Dr. Anastasatos brings exceptional international credentials to lip lift surgery for Russian patients. He has been an invited lecturer at the Royal Society of Medicine in London on advanced facial aesthetic surgical techniques, with an invited 2026 return as featured speaker — among the most distinguished international academic platforms in plastic surgery. He has been featured in Vogue Greece — a publication recognized internationally for its standards of aesthetic refinement. With over two decades of facial surgical expertise across his Athens and Beverly Hills practices, he is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and named by The Luxe Insider as one of the Top 10 Plastic Surgeons in the World.

Anti-Aging Lip Lifts

One of the reasons patients seek lip plastic surgery is due to aging. The lips are prone to losing volume and becoming thinner with age. A “long” upper lip is one sign of aging. The space between the nose base and upper lip seems to expand and the pink of the upper lip nearly disappears. The upper lip can cover the upper teeth, changing the smile. A lip lift can reduce a long upper lip. The incision is made at the columella, or base of the nose, lifting the lip a few millimeters higher.

Other aging lip effects are a downturn at the corners of the lips. This can make a person look sad or upset when their face is relaxed and start marionette lines that travel from the lips down the chin. A corner lip lift can give the lips a more youthful and pleasant appearance. For patients coming to our clinics from Russia, Dr. John Anastasatos offers lip lift and enhancement surgeries to improve the sensuous beauty of the lips at our medical centers located in Europe and the U.S.A.

Lip Volume Enhancements

Many people want more volume in their lips. Some people are born with thin lips, and others lose fat in the lips as they age, creating flatter, wrinkled lips. Lip volume enhancements are very popular with women to create full, voluptuous lips. Dr. Anastasatos offers both surgical lip enhancement for fuller lips and injections that can temporarily add more volume.

For permanent volume lip augmentation, fat transfer, grafting or injections are the best option. This procedure harvests fat from another area of the body through liposuction and transfers it to the lips. This is the longest lasting lip augmentation, using your own fat tissue to give your lips more volume. For patients flying to our centers from Russia, Dr. Anastasatos offers lip augmentation procedures at our clinics in Athens, Greece or Los Angeles, CA.

Dermal fillers are a popular option for increasing lip volume or erasing lip wrinkles. Most use hyaluronic acid to plump the lips. The benefit of facial filler injections for lip enhancement is that the results are immediate, and the procedure is non-invasive. Dr. Anastasatos can perform a lip injection in a quick office visit. However, most fillers only last several months, so the procedure would need to be repeated to maintain the results.

Reshaping Lip Surgery

Do you want a more defined Cupid’s bow on your upper lip or want to reduce the size of your lips? Not all lip plastic surgery is used to add volume or to combat aging. If you are unhappy with the shape or size of your lips, Dr. Anastasatos can discuss the various lip surgeries or treatments that can create the lips you desire.

The perfect lips for your face can help improve your self-confidence and appearance. If you want to explore lip enhancement or lip lift surgery, contact the office of Dr. John Anastasatos in Athens, Greece, or Beverly Hills, CA. You can fly from Russia to our medical clinic in Europe or U.S. where Dr. John Anastasatos performs lip lift and lip enhancement procedures.
