Lip lift - should the incision go into the nostril or bottom of nose?

Question

I am hoping to get a lip lift soon but I'm keen to know whether the incision should be in the nostril or simply hug the bottom of the nose? It would be good to understand the pros and cons of the two incisions. Thanks

Hello miss70sDifferent      lip lift techniques exist to address different lip concerns, whether you      want to even out your lower lip or plump thin lips.

Both options are good, it will depend more on your individual anatomy. Your surgeon will recommend what is best for you in terms of hiding the scar and achieving the desired result.
