I want a liplift that only lifts the two peaks of my upper lip and the corners of my mouth (make me look like I am smiling/happy). I want to show more corner teeth. I want to see lateral incisors and canines. All the lip lifts I see show Mostly central incisors and lift the entire upper lip which is not ideal for what I am looking for. Is there a name for the type of liplift I am looking for?

A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners.

Hello, bipolar electrocautery is the golden standarddid not understand your second question (where surgeon needs most comfortable ?)in the right hands nasal base is not damaged, no need to be concerned
Thank you for your photos. I do agree that you may not need a lip lift right now as you are younger and have good teeth show on repose (relaxed pose). You could benefit from lip fillers to enhance the vertical height of your upper red lip and to improve your overall lip harmony and proportions....
