Lip Lift suspension with a suture?

Question

I found this procedure on the internet and am looking for someone who performs it as I have unilateral paralysis and have a general droop on that side (including specifically my upper lip on that side): Lip Lift Suspension: In this procedure, a single suture is used to elevate the upper lip- in other words- a thread is used to tighten and anchor the tissue in place. This procedure leaves no scar and it is reversible if you are unhappy with the result.

Thank you for your question. It is the goal of facial plastic surgery to minimize and hide all scars from procedure. Lasers and resurfacing tools offer patients the opportunity to take additional measures to conceal any indication of the surgery itself. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,
