Will facial exercises stretch my lip lift?

Question

I've had a lip lift 3 months ago, and have always practiced facial exercises, can I still continue or would it "disturb" my lip lift, thank you for any replies

Dear eve100~
Thanks for your quesiton  At 3 months the majority of your wound healing has already occurred.  However, the scar can still stretch if placed under tension.  Of course it's not possible to completely avoid moving the lip altogether, but I would generally recommend avoiding any activities that result in noticeable tension on the wound.  Please check with your surgeon to see what exercises you can safely perform.
Best wishes,Dr. Amy Hsu

Thank you for your question. I suggest that you run this question by your board certified facial plastic surgeon so that you two are on the same page for your recovery. Please also post photos to this site.
Best wishes,
