Would I be a good candidate for a lift lip to fix a duck lip caused by migration of filler? (Photo)

Hi there. I think you will be a good candidate for a lip lift. The height of your philtrum can be reduced and this will result in a more balanced proportion between the base of your nose and chin area.Duck lips are commonly seen as a result of lip fillers performed in patients who have long upper lip height. In those patients, a lip lift can achieve a poutier upper lip eliminating the need for fillers, as well as improving facial aesthetics and rejuvenate the lower face.The main contraindication for a lip lift is the history of poor scarring (hypertrophic or keloids). Otherwise the scar is well concealed in the natural lines and shadows of the columella, nostrils and alar base . With appropriate technique and good after care the scar will become inconspicuous after few months. The procedure itself takes 60 mins and is performed under a local anaesthetic in an outpatient theatre facility.

Thank you for sharing your question and photograph. It appears that you would be a good candidate for a lip lift procedure to improve lip show while reducing the length between your nose and upper lip. Hope this helps.
