Lip Lift
LIP LIFT OR LIP LIFT
With the passage of time the appearance of our lips lose their shape. The upper lip becomes thinner and the philtrum lengthens, which is identified as a sign of aging of the face. The philtrum, the area of skin that joins the nose with the upper lip, descends as we age, becoming flat and lengthening, and with Lip Lift we can easily correct it.
Lip Lift is an innovative and simple procedure that achieves attractive and sensual lips through a small incision that lifts the upper lip and shortens the filtrum (space between the base of the nose and the upper lip).
Lip lift is a procedure designed at first to rejuvenate the upper lip, but whose excellent results have led us to use it today to achieve more attractive and voluminous lips.

The amount of tissue to be removed will depend on the type of case in question.
What is the postoperative care?

Will there be any visible scarring?
A month after the intervention, a natural result is settling due to the decrease in edema and inflation. The repair period of the scar area usually lasts one year. In most cases, the scar eventually becomes invisible.
