Lip Lift

Long-Lasting Lip Enhancement

The lip lift treatment uses surgical techniques to enhance the appearance of the lips. This treatment can either shorten the length of a long upper lip or increase the proportions of a thin upper lip.

The lip lift procedure helps patients achieve long-term cosmetic benefits in the lips. Whether you have experienced signs of aging in the lips due to volume loss, or you’d simply like to enhance the proportions of the lips, a lip lift can be effective. Many patients prefer this technique because it avoids the potentially unnatural appearance that is produced by dermal fillers and injectables. Plus, as a surgical technique, a lip lift produces results that lasts for many years longer than dermal fillers.

The Procedure Details

What does Lip Lift treat?

Fatty tissue in the face, specifically:
– Rejuvenates the upper lip
– Enhances lip size and definition
– Decreases the need for dermal fillers and injectables
– Increases teeth visibility

Procedure time

Up to 2 hours

Recovery time

An initial recovery period of up to one week can be expected, with swelling and bruising around the lips. Patients are encouraged to take time away from strenuous activities for at least two weeks, but can expect a full recovery in 2 to 3 months.

Results

Results will be visible immediately but may not be fully visible until side effects fade. These results will last for many years to come.
