What is it?
Liplift is the surgical procedure that allows you to rejuvenate the upper lip, through its elevation and projection.
This surgery makes it possible to rejuvenate the perioral region, with a great impact on the treatment of facial aging.
When is it indicated?
Perioral aging is characterized by an increase in the distance between the upper lip and the nose, that is, the upper lip appears to be lowered. Associated with this, there is an inversion of the upper lip with a decrease in its projection. The liplift is indicated in these situations.
How is the procedure performed?
In the liplift, the reduction in the height of the upper lip is performed by excising the excess skin on the upper edge of the lip, that is, on the edge close to the nose. In this way, it is possible to remove skin and position the scar on the lower edge of the nose so that it is barely visible.
Can it be combined with other surgeries?
The liplift can be combined with other facial surgeries to achieve a more complete facial transformation. It is often combined with rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty or facelift.
