Corner lip lift or custom revision lip lift to address outer portions of the upper lip? (photo)

It appears that you would benefit from scar revision after lip lift; dermabrasion would be a good choice. Corner of the lip lift may improve that part. In person consulation with a board certified plastic surgeon familiar with these procedures is recommended. Good luck.

Deciding between a corner lip lift and a custom revision lip lift to address your concerns requires careful consideration of your aesthetic goals and the specific anatomy of your lips. Here are some insights into both procedures to help guide your decision:

Corner Lip Lift:
This procedure specifically targets the outer corners of the lips, elevating them to create a more uplifted and youthful appearance. It can be effective if the main concern is the downward slant of the lip corners, which contributes to a "sad" appearance.

Custom Revision Lip Lift:


A custom revision lip lift can be tailored to address specific areas of concern, including the outer portions of the upper lip. This approach can be beneficial if you require more comprehensive adjustments to achieve symmetry and balance across the entire lip area.

Considerations:


Consultation with Experienced Surgeons: It’s important to have detailed consultations with surgeons who specialize in lip surgeries. They can assess your facial structure and discuss the potential outcomes and risks of each procedure.

Desired Outcome: Clearly communicate your aesthetic goals and what specifically bothers you about your current appearance. This will help the surgeon recommend the most appropriate procedure to achieve your desired look.

Previous Surgeries: Given your history of prior lip lifts, it is crucial to consider the impact of additional surgery on your lip tissue and the potential for scarring or changes in sensation.

Ultimately, the choice between a corner lip lift and a custom revision lip lift should be based on a thorough evaluation and discussion with a qualified plastic surgeon who understands your specific needs and can offer a personalized approach.

Thank you for the photos and your question. I recommend doing a corner lip lift to best address your concern. I agree that it doesn't look like you need more upper lip elevation at the cupid's bow. However, to fully assess your lip aesthetics, I would want to see how much dental show you have. Best of luck!
