Enhance Your Natural Beauty
A surgical lip lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to elevate and reshape the upper lip, creating a fuller, more youthful appearance. It is performed under local anesthesia by Drs. Leveque, Butler, and Patterson. By reducing the distance between the nose and the upper lip, this procedure enhances lip definition and improves facial harmony, helping you achieve a balanced and natural look.
Why Consider a Lip Lift?
A lip lift is ideal for individuals looking to:
- Create a Fuller Smile: Enhance the appearance of naturally thin lips without fillers.
- Shorten the Philtrum: Reduce the vertical space between the nose and the upper lip for a youthful contour.
- Improve Lip Shape: Correct asymmetry or redefine the lip's borders.
- Long-Lasting Results: Enjoy permanent enhancement compared to temporary solutions like injectable fillers.
How is the Procedure Performed?
A surgical lip lift is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia. Here’s what to expect:
- Customized Incision: A small incision is made at the base of the nose (commonly referred to as a "bullhorn" incision) to remove a precise amount of skin.
- Lip Elevation: The surgeon carefully lifts the upper lip, enhancing its shape and definition.
- Natural Results: The incision is closed with fine sutures to minimize scarring, leaving a subtle, nearly invisible line.
The entire procedure typically takes about 1–2 hours.
Benefits of a Lip Lift
- Permanent Enhancement: No need for repeat treatments.
- Improved Lip Proportions: Achieve better balance between the upper and lower lips.
- Subtle Yet Impactful: The results enhance your natural features without looking overdone.
