LIP LIFTING

WHAT IS lip lifting?

Genetically or due to aging, the length of skin between the base of the nose and the upper lip is increased, which affects the aesthetics of the lower third of the face and the face in general. In addition, it leads to a lack of exposure of the upper teeth when smiling, making it a frequent reason for consultation. "I laugh and my teeth are not seen".

The Lip Lifting technique aims to shorten the increased vertical length of skin on the upper lip located from the subnasal region to the free edge of the upper lip, providing a thicker upper lip with immediate and definitive projection and exposure of upper teeth when smiling. Additionally, we can enhance the Cupid's bow.
