Answer: Scar revision and layered closure for a lip scar
Your question is a good one. The answer is based in the literature for secondary cleft lip reconstruction. There are numerous well documented techniques that all experienced Plastic Surgeons should know. Recreating a philtral column and creating a philtrum dimple are parts of the same procedure....
Lip reduction is a suitable option for men and women who feel that their lips are overly protruding or bulky. I perform these procedures in my plastic surgery office in Los Angeles.
