A lip lift is a refined surgical technique that shortens the space between the nose and upper lip. This can increase the volume of the upper lip, create greater definition of the Cupid’s bow, and restore natural upper tooth show. A lip lift is a subtle but powerful way to achieve natural and youthful facial balance.
What is a Lip Lift?
A lip lift is a surgical procedure designed to elevate the position of the upper lip by shortening the philtrum, the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip. This subtle yet powerful enhancement reveals more of the pink lip, improves facial balance, and creates a more youthful and engaging expression.
Compared to lip fillers, a lip lift provides a permanent improvement in lip position and contour. It is an ideal procedure for older patients who have experienced lip elongation with age, as well as young patients born with a long philtrum.
