Understanding the Lip Lift Procedure

At Smith Facial Plastics, the lip lift has become an increasingly popular procedure for patients seeking fuller, more youthful lips. Unlike temporary lip augmentation, this surgical procedure offers a more permanent solution to enhance lip aesthetics.

What is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a precision cosmetic surgical procedure tailored to each patient's unique facial structure. The surgery lifts the upper lip to create an aesthetically pleasing shape, revealing more of the pink lip tissue and shortening the distance between the nose and upper lip.

Benefits of a Lip Lift

Achieve fuller-looking lips
Create a more youthful lip appearance
Increase self-confidence in your smile
Expose top teeth when mouth is relaxed

Ideal Candidates for Lip Lift

Patients experiencing increased space between lip and nose with age
Individuals seeking a more long-lasting alternative to lip fillers
Those desiring increased lip volume and definition

Surgical Procedure Details

The lip lift procedure is performed in our Gahanna, Ohio office. Dr. Smith will carefully remove a small horizontal section beneath the nose, effectively shortening the lip-to-nose distance. The upper lip is turned slightly outward to reveal more of the inner pink lip structure. The entire surgery typically takes approximately one hour.

Recovery Process

Patients can expect stitches to be removed about one week after surgery. Minor discomfort may persist for approximately 72 hours, manageable with prescribed medication. Most patients take 3-5 days off work. Some temporary swelling and tightness are normal and will subside during the healing process.

Non-Surgical Alternatives

While lip augmentation with fillers offers temporary results, the surgical lip lift provides more natural and long-lasting enhancement. During your consultation, our surgeons will discuss the most appropriate option for your aesthetic goals.

Cost Considerations

Lip lift costs in Gahanna vary based on individual patient needs. A comprehensive consultation with our surgeons will provide personalized recommendations and detailed pricing information.

Dr Stephen Smith did literal magic for a bad scar on my face through scar revision then subcision + filler. It was a process, but 100% worth the time and money.

Excellent service that is both caring and discreet. Because Dr. Smith and his staff get to know you well, they are able to spot potential problem areas BEFORE they become problems. Today Michelle worked me into her schedule on short notice to address some problem areas on my skin. She’s so knowledgeable, quick and thorough. Plus she’s really fun and friendly! Appointments are on time and handled with great efficiency yet provide utmost personal attention.

I had a rhinoplasty/septorhinoplasty with Dr. Steven Smith in May of 2022. At first I thought getting surgery be a good idea. I had always disliked the bump on my nose from the side, and I wasn’t breathing the best. During my consultation, The doctor took pictures of my nose at all different angles, and was able to create a “morph” on what my new nose would look like. What that morph didn't show would be the huge dent, crookedness, and cartilage poking out in places. My birth nose was straight, my new nose is crooked. Doctor Smith even compared my new nose to a crooked branch on a tree that he pointed to outside of his office when I confronted him about it. "Everything natural has some asymmetry just like the trees outside." Let me say this again. My nose was never crooked like a tree branch before he operated on me. It is lumpy, wide, and crooked. My skin on my nose has never looked the same after. The definition in my nose is gone. The worst part of all is I had the surgery to breathe better, but I would say I don't breathe any better possibly worse. Dr. Steven Smith did offer to fix it, but I will probably have it fixed somewhere else down the line. Revision rhinoplasties are double even triple the cost of a primary. Keep this in mind. Also, the price of the surgery center was not fully disclosed and billing has been a nightmare with White Fence Surgical Suites. 2 stars because half of my nose looks okay, the other half is a wreck. Also he did make himself available when I had questions but I don’t think we will be able to come to a solution as I don’t want my nose further messed up with filler or another surgery by him. Below are pictures from one year mark. Swelling at this point should be mostly gone. This is the final result and hasn’t changed much since then. It’s taken me a while to be brave enough to write this review and accept this is the nose I paid for, but I hope it saves someone. Thanks. BEFORE: left AFTER: right
