Techniques named for lip lift: modified upper lip lift.

In their words

FORM Face + Body Toronto Plastic Surgery, Med Spa & Hair TransplantEvery surgical lip lift leaves a scar. Its location depends on the technique. A subnasal approach places the incision beneath the nose, a direct approach follows the upper-lip border, and a corner lift involves the mouth corners.
TMB Cosmetic Surgery: Trevor M. Born, MDYou may be a candidate for a lip lift if you have a long upper lip, a thin upper lip, or if you desire more permanent results than those offered by lip fillers.
Dr. Mike RoskiesCompared to conventional lip lifts, the modified version is akin to a deep plane facelift that addresses the deeper layer of the lip. Tightening this muscle instead of skin allows for a scar under less tension and better long-term healing.

TMB Cosmetic Surgery: Trevor M. Born, MDA lip lift is a surgical procedure that shortens the space between the nose and the upper lip, lifting the upper lip to create a more youthful and fuller appearance.

FAQ

Lip Lift in Toronto: common questions

How much does Lip Lift cost in Toronto?

Lip Lift generally runs CAD$4,080 to CAD$8,160 per procedure, and each Toronto 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 Canadian dollars (CAD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Toronto clinics for a personalized quote.

When will I see results from Lip Lift?

Initial results in 2 to 4 weeks, with full results developing over 3 months as collagen builds. Toronto providers typically schedule follow-ups to track progress.

How long do Lip Lift results last?

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

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.
