Lip Lift Review | What Matters More Than Length Is Facial Proportion!

Front view before and after surgery

When you look in the mirror, if the area between your nose and lips looks long,

you may hear that your face looks saggy and tired.

At times like this, one of the procedures many people look for is a “lip lift.”

But a lip lift is not simply

a surgery that cuts the skin...

It is a precise procedure that redesigns facial proportions

and creates a more balanced impression!!!

Also, the reason the philtrum looks long is

not just a matter of distance.

Because multiple factors work together, such as

reduced skin elasticity, decreased lip volume, and changes in the nasolabial angle,

it is difficult to achieve a natural youthful effect with incision alone.

Today, through real patient cases,

I will explain in detail how lip lift surgery is performed,

and what changes it can bring to facial proportions.

^^

Before surgery,

this case was a woman in her early 30s who had a long philtrum and thin upper lip, so when she had a neutral expression,

her face looked long and gave a cold impression.

The distance between the nose and lips was about 22 mm, which was long,

and the lips appeared to be pulled downward.

When smiling,

the gums were exposed,

and the overall facial proportions were tilted downward.

One week after surgery,

there was still swelling, but as the philtrum became shorter,

a change that made the center of the face look lifted upward

began to appear in the photos as well.^^

The incision line under the nose was made in a natural curve,

so scar visibility is not severe,

and lip movement is also natural.

One month after surgery,

as the swelling subsided, the space above the lips became shorter,

and the mouth line softly curled upward.

Can you see that the youthful impression has clearly taken shape~^^

At the time of the visit,

the patient said that with the philtrum definitely shortened,

she could feel that her impression had changed to look brighter than before.

Front / side view 3 months after surgery

Three months after surgery,

by the third month, the scar had faded to the point where it was almost indistinguishable from the skin tone,

and the upper lip volume and nasolabial angle had settled in harmoniously.

The overall impression clearly changed into a lively and soft

youthful look.^^

Front / side view 6 months after surgery

Six months after surgery,

all tissues had settled stably,

and natural facial expressions and lip movement

had fully become established.

The balance of the nose-lip-chin line improved,

and as the volume of the upper lip became more pronounced when smiling,

a bright impression was strongly felt even in photos.

At 21 Plastic Surgery,

a lip lift is not simply about

reducing the length of the philtrum,

but is a precise procedure that also takes into account

the proportions of the entire face, lip movement, and muscle structure!!

By making the incision along the natural curve

of the base of the nose to minimize scar visibility,

and by carefully restoring the orbicularis oris muscle so that expressions

do not look awkward,

when necessary, lip volume adjustment is also performed together

to create a harmonious overall impression.

At 21 Plastic Surgery,

we approach this with the principle that

“a lip lift is not a surgery to simply shorten something,

but a surgery to redesign the proportions at the center of the face.”

Based on anatomical analysis and fine suturing techniques,

we plan each procedure so that every patient can achieve the most natural and balanced result possible.^^
