Lip Lift Charlotte, NY | Center for Facial Plastic and Laser Surgery

Understanding Facial Proportion and Lip Lift Procedure

When evaluating facial aesthetics, the Center for Facial Plastic and Laser Surgery focuses on achieving optimal facial balance. The goal is to establish a harmonious 1/3 to 2/3 relationship between the upper lip, lower lip, and chin proportions.

Ideal Candidates for Lip Lift

Patients are considered excellent candidates for a lip lift when they experience:

• Disproportionately long upper lip
• Thin lip appearance
• Desire for improved facial symmetry

Surgical Technique and Approach

The lip lift procedure is typically performed with minimal sedation or local anesthesia in an office setting. A specialized surgical approach ensures precise and natural-looking results.

Surgical Details

• Incision hidden underneath the nose with a "gull-winged" shape
• Targeted removal of excess skin
• Strategic muscle tightening as needed
• Minimal post-operative swelling and bruising

Recovery and Scar Management

The procedure involves minimal downtime, with sutures removed within 6 days. Patients can resume wearing makeup after suture removal. The incision scar typically heals well with routine post-operative care.

Scar Refinement Options

In cases where patients seek additional scar improvement, laser treatments can be utilized to enhance the scar's appearance and minimize visibility.
