Can a high smas facelift, lift corners of upper lip/corner of mouth? Can it improve or reverse a bad midface lift?

I like the high SMAS facelift to elevate the corners of the mouth without stretching the mouth out wider.  This operation is one tight control and strong power.  The jowls should be gone, the corner of the mouth up, and the jawline clean.

Hi There, 

Traditionally a high SMAS deep plane facelift can provide lift to the midface if an extended dissection is performed. An extended dissection can lift and alleviate the nasolabial folds, marionette lines, and corners of the mouth. This can often provide a lasting result with natural contours.
