A Lip Lift is a surgical procedure that addresses an elongated lip. As we go through the aging process, the upper lip elongates and loses definition centrally. Often patients have used HA fillers to address the thinning lip. While fillers are effective for achieving a fuller lip, it is not possible to shorten the skin of the lip with filler.
Our Preferences:
In our hands, a lip lift does more than just shorten the height of the upper lip. We accentuate natural aesthetic features, enhancing highlights and adding shadows to the central lip (Cupid’s bow). The incision is meticulously placed along the base of the nose and closed with very fine sutures. The results are natural, elegant and permanent.
Results
Achieve a youthful and aesthetically pleasing lip shape with a lip lift. This cosmetic procedure enhances the curvature and contour of the upper lip, offering a more defined cupid's bow and a shorter, more attractive upper lip area.
Treatment Areas
Lip lift surgery can improve:
- A long space between the bottom of the nose and the top of the lip.
- Lack of definition in the cupid’s bow.
- Thin or flat lips.
- Asymmetry between the upper and lower lips.
