The Lip Lift surgery is a procedure that can be performed on both older people for facial rejuvenation, correcting the natural sagging of the upper lip, and on young people who aim for lip augmentation, as lifting the upper lip adds more volume, exposing more of the upper teeth and providing a more harmonious smile.
With aging, one of the consequences is the loss of fat in the lips, causing them to sag due to loss of support. Lip lifting is the most indicated procedure for those who want to permanently correct lip height and volume, avoiding the need for constant lip filler applications.
When you hear the term Lip Lifting, or Lip Lift, it generally refers to an upper lip lift. The operation can be adapted to lift different regions of the lip, making them more shaped and with a more defined contour.
By correcting cases of patients who have a large distance between the nose and the upper lip, a more harmonious appearance is given to the rest of the face. For this reason, there are younger patients who have a longer upper lip who benefit immensely from this surgery. When performed on older patients, it restores the youthful appearance of the face. This subtle alteration makes people look years younger and rejuvenated.
More natural results
The Lip Lift procedure is often performed in conjunction with laser applications. For those who mainly desire volume increase, fat grafting (or lipofilling, a globally recognized procedure where a portion of fat is removed from the abdomen or other parts of the body, purified, and injected into the necessary areas) is often used in conjunction, which in addition to offering more natural results also contributes to skin quality and the reduction of small wrinkles and imperfections.
