Lip Lift


Lip lift

We often get phone calls regarding lip lifts.
Lip lifts are a relatively common procedure. There are two types of lip lifts. The first is called an anguloplasty. This is to surgically correct the down-turned corners of the mouth. It has recently gotten some notoriety as a surgical cure for a “resting b*tch face”. It involves excising a roughly triangular section of tissue above the corners of the mouth. This allows the corners of the mouth to be rotated superiorly. I have also done the procedure for the same reason for people who get some excoriation of the skin from having such severely down-turned corners of the mouth that spit will drip out.


The other type of lip lift is to help evert the lip. As people age their upper lip appears to get longer. This is product of not only sagging but also losing some bony volume in their mid-face. This involves taking out a curved section of tissue right under the nose. It results in a very inconspicuous scar and helps shorten and evert the lip. It gives the appearance of being able to see more lip without doing a lip augmentation which is often not desired.
