LIP LIFT

A lip lift can be a beneficial procedure for any age. This small procedure can create beautiful results with little downtime. The lip lift can be performed under local anesthesia in our office and serves people of all ages. The procedure will use a small incision that is placed under the nose to improve lip proportions and rejuvenate the lip area.  You will see the more pink area of the lips and more upper teeth show when the lip is relaxed. The lip lift offers a more permanent solution to constant lip filler.

LIP LIFT RECOVERY

IMMEDIATELY AFTER
WHAT TO EXPECT

There will be some swelling and a firm feeling to the upper lip due to the swelling. Pain is minimal and well-controlled with over-the-counter medications. The sutures are blue and in an incision hidden under the nose. The lip lift will look and feel overdone at this stage.

ONE WEEK
WHAT TO EXPECT

There is still mild to moderate swelling. The lip has not yet settled into its final contour and shape. All the sutures are removed within a week.

ONE TO TWO MONTHS
WHAT TO EXPECT

At one month, things are looking and feeling great, the patient is photo-ready! The scar will take a variable amount of time to fade but is easily covered with makeup and the best scar management is sunscreen. (and a silicone-based cream if concern for scar thickening at all).
