When I was in my early twenties I had silicon-1000 injected into the lips. Flash forward 10+ years and the silicone has migrated, the upper lip looks stiff and movement is impaired. The vermillion border looks full and has lost all definition, as has the philtrum column. People stare when I'm out and they make comments. My social life has been affected much more than I'd like to admit for...
Hello, I am a 23 year old male and have never had too much tooth show when smiling, have had a rhinoplasty and therefore the space between nose and upper lip appears longer ( about 1.5 cm).I have been researching the lip lift procedure for a little while in order to have more tooth show when i smile and i have narrowed it down to 4 surgeons that seemed to get the best reviews : Dr Epstein in ...
Considering Lip Lift procedure. anyone tell me the pain they felt?
Yesterday I had a bullhorn liplift. First dr. gave me an injection. She poke the syringe till to the middle of my nose, that deep! it hurt so badly, then she gave me 3 on each side of my nose. I thought I am going to die. Numbing started, and I had pads on my eyes, but I could see a lil through. I saw the skalpell, and she cut me, I felt the skalpell where she was going with it, slowly. I had...
I haven't found lip fillers to be helpful in achieving the look I want. I'd like a shorter philtrum and my top lip not to curl under when I smile.I can only find two surgeons in the UK who do this procedure. Miss Caroline Mills and Mr Marando. I'm wondering whether to get it done in America with either Dr Mascaro or Dr Lara Devgan as have seen a lot of good reviews on them. Closer to home...
So many of the beautiful before and after photos on here are those who had sufficient lips beforehand. I am incredibly unlucky to have a 2.1cm philtrum but also zero lip show on either my top or bottom lip. I’m curious to see if there are any doctors that have transformed a mouth like mine into a normal one? Im yet to see any photos that show someone who looks like me to begin with.&...
I had lip reduction done 5 days back. There's a lot of swelling and also the white flaky like on the lower lip which I suspect is infection but I am not sure though. I am still not able to close my mouth and have hard time talking. Is this normal? Has anyone experienced like this before? I am really concerned about swelling and the infection. I am only on liquid diet for now. Any suggestions...
I really dislike my upper lip. I think it's too thin (not showing enough red), is lacking a distinct cupids bow and I really dislike the space between my lip and nose. Would a bullhorn lip lift be best to change this? I really want to have a 1.1cm distance between my nose and lip but is that unrealistic?I've never had plastic surgery before but I'm afraid if I go to consultations I'll be told...
Hi there, I had a BLL about 16 days ago. I am still stiff and was told it should be normal in a month. I'm a little nervous bc it feels mega stiff. Also, my PS stitched one side a little higher than the other. I'm wondering how this can be fixed? He said I was asymmetrical before, which I wasn't at all. I can clearly see in the mirror the stitching is different on both sides. I'm...
I dislike the length between my nose and lip, also I would like some more of the pink part showing on my lip and some tooth exposure. I went to a surgeon who told me it would disfigure me but I'm not sure if that's true, ESP as he makes money from doing lip fillers for me and he would loose out...
I know the way people love big lips but i don't like mine at all.My lips use to be full and normal sized.It seems it got bigger.I have this gap between my teeth and it looks like it got wider.Could this be the problem why I have really big lips because the top row is sort of going up.I'm afraid of doing surgery because there might be side affects and the money is too much.Please help its...
I am in need of a lip lift but have a gummy smile and too much tooth show to begin with. I AM IMMUNE TO BOTOX SO IT IS NOT AN OPTION. Filler did nothing for the long ape like appearance of my upper mouth. I feel hopeless about this Im turning 40 in Sept and wanted something to make me feel better. I need a nose job but was told by many P.S. I am a candidate for collapse.
I really want a lip lift. After a bad rhino my upper lip is longer than it was pre rhino. I had a revision rhino and while I still don't think it looks very good I think a lip lift will help balance my face. There aren't any good surgeons in my area ( Nashville ) so I will have to travel. I just can't decide between Perenack, Hornedski, or Rodriguez. Even though the reviews help , I wish I...
Hi everyone, I am seriously considering the lip lift procedure. I have had fillers in the past but have never been fully happy. I want more tooth show and less distance. I am considering Dr. Spiegel in Boston, Dr. Pearson in California, and Dr. Mascaro in Florida. I want to know if this procedure is really worth the scar under the nose. Does it really disappear/become nearly invisib...
Can anyone tell me about their experience being Awake during his procedure? I wanna but awake but am so scared for some reason.
I just had an upper lip lift 6 days ago with a very reputable surgeon. It ruined my face. I know it's still swollen but it made my nose wider and too high in the center and too droopy on the sides. It looks literally awful. My question is, how different will it look once all the swelling goes away? Did anyone that has gotten a lip lift feel it looked horrible in the first few days? Does it...
I went on a lip filling a month ago and my lips looked full and payed a lot of money for it. I don't remember the name of the material but after a week my lips were nice and full so i went on the procedure again and tolled the lady to inject it into the contours of my lips. I was so satisfied with my lips they were finally full and had a lot of compliments. my lips are naturally full I just...
HI, I'm a 34 year old male and am looking for a surgeon in the UK (or Europe) who can do a lip lift so that more of my upper teeth are visible when I smile. Can anyone recommend someone? A surgeon in London would be ideal, but initial research has shown most to have mixed reviews which worries me. Thanks in advance, any help greatly appreciated.
Hello there!I am 22 years old (I am not sure if that makes a difference).My now is 42mm long, but my philtrum - 19mm. Basically my philtrum is half of my nose length. I think it is too long and makes me look really goofy. The upper lip is very thin and kind of droopy.Please, be honest, do you think I could do with a lip lift? I really want to do it very much!Everyone around me though says that...
I had juvederm in top lip in the past. It migrated into the sills and out of my lip which filler always does on me. My goal would be simply to shorten the distance between nose and lips. I do not want fuller lips or more tooth show as you can see I already have that.
