Can you achieve a lip lift using fillers? I just had a facelift and the doctor did not address my mouth area, therefor the lip area is still very much thin and wrinkled, as it's too late now I'm 4.5 weeks post op, so my question is can fillers be placed under the nose and at the sides of the mouth to bring the lip upwards? When I press under my nose I have my lip back so it's not a matter of filling the lips but in raising them.

Answer: Lip Lift and fillers Good day! It is difficult to assess without in person examination or at least a photo. The position of your lips is important in determining if you need a lift or just a filler. You will then decide the type of lift you need to undergo or the type of filler that suits your long term goals. For your guidance, there are lip lifts that can shorten the distance from your upper lip to the base of the nose, and others that can elevate the corners of the mouth. All have different goals but ultimately gives a more younger and proportioned lips/smile.There are other non invasive options such as Botox, Dysport or similar muscle relaxers can be used to soften the smoker’s lines and allow the corners of the mouth to turn up. But it is still best to have an in person examination with a board-certified surgeon in your area that has extensive experience with your case. Best of luck! #RealSelf100

Answer: Lip Lift Possible With Fillers? Thank you for your question. There is a distinct difference between adding volume to the upper lip and lifting the upper lip. The answer as to which approach may be most appropriate for you depends upon exactly what you would like to accomplish.

Answer: Lip Lift Techniques/Fillers Vary on your needs An examination would of course be needed but in general there are different ways to do a lip lift that may help to rejuvenate your lips. Seeing a board certified plastic surgeon would be the next step. Fillers only minimally lift the lip through volume restoration but does not correct the problem if the distance between the upper lip and nostril is too long.
