A subtle lift, a major difference
The upper lip lift is a cosmetic surgical procedure that elevates the lip to increase the visibility of the vermilion (the red part of the lip) and enhance the Cupid’s bow.
The procedure involves removing a small strip of skin under local anesthesia from the lower part of the philtrum (just beneath the base of the nose) to shorten the distance between the nose and the upper lip, resulting in a lifted appearance and improved lip shape.
The result is permanent and impactful.
For enhanced volume and hydration, it is recommended to inject hyaluronic acid filler at least 1 month after surgery.
The advantages of the procedure lie in the permanence of the result:
– no need for complementary procedures for women who desire a subtle yet harmonized effect
– significantly smaller amounts of hyaluronic acid needed for those who want a “wow” effect (e.g., flat lips / lips for kiss)
