Pros and cons of subnasal lip lift versus V-Y upper lip lift?

February 26, 2018
Asked By:Zurra in Atlanta, GA

The lip lift reviews on this site seem to represent the bullhorn, or subnasal, lip lift technique more than any other technique. However, I just had a consultation with a surgeon who immediately rejected the subnasal technique outright, due to the risks of nasal sill drooping and scar hypertrophy. He advised the V-Y technique. I am having a very hard time finding much information on the V-Y technique, much less pictures and reviews.
