The Cupid Lift® procedure, developed by Dr. Ben Talei, is a structural lip enhancement designed to refine proportion and elevate the upper lip with surgical precision. Focused on anatomy and balance, it creates definition without distortion. The finish is lifted, sculpted, and seamlessly natural.
Every treatment at Cupid Lips® is performed under the direct standards of Dr. Ben Talei, a dual board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon whose practice is devoted exclusively to the face. From surgical procedures to advanced injectables, every detail is approached with precision, restraint, and a deep understanding of facial anatomy, the same deep plane expertise Dr. Talei has published on and teaches to surgeons internationally. It's why patients from Beverly Hills, Hollywood, and across Los Angeles come to Cupid Lips® for results that look considered, not overdone.
Before the volume. Before the glow. Before the transformation.
We start with vision, proportion, and precision.
From advanced skincare to signature lip care and daily defense, each collection is selected to extend the precision of in-clinic treatment.
The Cupid Compendium is our annual educational forum — where artistry meets anatomy through curated lessons, advanced insights, and live aesthetic refinement.
Join us October 9th & 10th for this immersive two-day experience designed to elevate technique, deepen anatomical understanding, and refine aesthetic vision at the highest level.
