So finally I'm posting this update as I did 2 revisions for lip lift with the same doctor which I shouldn't have! He is not sensitive about my concerns and in my head I thought he is the only doctor that does that straight line suture across which I thought would be less scaring and I was wrong. The only time I didn't scar was the first one which he didn't take a lot of skin off so there was not a lot of tension on the insicion. However on the second and third time around I was left with a scar that was a raised hipertrophic scar "white raised line" it was horrible I tested it Within sfracello laser, cortison injections, and needeling! Anyways I finally started researching scars and how they form and bla bla come to find out that straight clean suture that I liked that dr H does is not enough for the tension so it will open and cause a scar from the pulling when talking and laughing etc. so I found another doctor that is experienced in scar revision and has these different type of sutures that are so strong and more stretchy " I forgot the name of that type of sutur" lol. Anyways I just did the scar revision with that other Doctor in a Dallas and I will be posting the whole updates in another treatment post that way I can give credit to this other doctor. I will also be posting pictures.

Really curious to see updates over time, I had a lip lift with Dr. Horndeski as well & am likely going to get a revision to achieve my desired results. Before you got the 2nd procedure done, how was healing for you at that point? Your last healing update was 3 months post-op & I'm curious how things turned out scar wise, as well as any nostril distortion? I'm approaching 6 months post-op but think I might wait a little longer for the revision too.

Yesterday I took more skin off about 4mm also Dr. Horndeski took a little more from the corner of my nose to lift the lip corners. this time around was way more painful then the first time not sure why! and the swelling is far more noticeable. my nostrils did grow and my nose kind of looks like a pig nose however reading the previous reviews of people this happened to some of them and it subsided in a couple of weeks so I will wait and be patient, I cannot say how it looks yet b/c I'm very swollen today is the second day, and Monday in 3 days I go to get stitches out. I'm optimistic though just have to be patient :). another thing is that I though the revision would be free but I ended up paying $1500 which is OK as long as I get the look I want, but make sure to be clear on how much would the revision cost should you need to take out more skin.

I'm so sorry you have to deal with the scar but I hope the new doctor can help you with that. Can you post the name of the scar revision MD?
Considering your experience, what advice would you give to a person considering lip lift procedure?
