Techniques named for lip lift: Modified lip lift.

In their words

Chopra Plastic SurgeryUnlike some other cosmetic procedures, the lip lift only involves the creation of small incisions at the base of your nose. This means you’ll experience a reduced degree of discomfort after your procedure and a much quicker recovery period.
Revive Surgical Institute | Dr. Morad AskariThe lip lift is typically performed under local anesthesia, which numbs the area and allows the patient to remain awake during this delicate procedure.
Paul N. Afrooz, MDa lip lift is always 100 percent customized for the individual, but generally involves removing a small section of skin and tissue from beneath the nose.

FAQ

Lip Lift in Coral Gables: common questions

How much does Lip Lift cost in Coral Gables?

Lip Lift generally runs $3,000 to $6,000 per procedure, and each Coral Gables clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in US dollars (USD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Coral Gables clinics for a personalized quote.

How long do Lip Lift results last?

Results vary by patient, but most Coral Gables providers report 6 to 18 months of sustained benefit from a full Lip Lift series.

Can I wear makeup after Lip Lift?

Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.

Lip lift or lip filler?

Filler adds volume. A lip lift shortens the distance between nose and lip and rolls the lip outward, which shows more of the lip without adding to it. If your upper lip is long, so that the pink part is thin and your teeth do not show when your mouth is relaxed, filler makes the lip look heavier and longer, and a lift is the honest fix. If your lip is a good length but simply thin, filler is the right tool, and cheaper.

Where is the scar?

In the crease where the base of the nose meets the lip, following its natural curve, sometimes called a bullhorn shape. In experienced hands it heals into a faint line that the shadow under the nose hides. It is red and visible for the first months and matures over a year. Ask to see healed results at one year, straight on, before booking.

What is the recovery?

Sutures under the nose for about a week, swelling of the upper lip for one to two weeks, and a stiff upper lip for a few weeks that gradually softens. Most people are comfortable in public at one to two weeks. The result is visible immediately and refines as swelling settles.

What does it cost?

Typically $3,000 to $6,000 including surgeon and facility, performed under local anesthesia in the office. A permanent result for roughly the cost of several years of lip filler.
