Upper Lip Lift Charlotte, NY | Dr. Sean Freeman

Understanding the Lip Lift Procedure

Dr. Sean Freeman evaluates facial balance by analyzing the proportion between the upper lip, lower lip, and chin. An ideal aesthetic result typically demonstrates a 1/3 to 2/3 relationship between these facial elements. Patients with disproportionately long upper lips or thin lip appearance are prime candidates for a lip lift procedure.

Surgical Technique and Approach

The lip lift procedure is performed with minimal sedation or local anesthesia in a clinical setting. Key aspects of the technique include:

• Discreet incision hidden underneath the nose in a "gull-winged" shape
• Precise removal of excess skin
• Strategic muscle tightening as needed

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can expect minimal post-operative swelling and bruising. Visible sutures are removed within 6 days, after which makeup application is permissible. The surgical scar typically heals well with routine post-operative care.

Advanced Scar Management

Should patients desire additional scar refinement, laser procedures can be utilized to improve the scar's aesthetic appearance, ensuring optimal cosmetic results.
