The long space between my nose and upper lip has been one of my biggest insecurities my entire life. I know the Bullhorn Lip Lift is an option, but not everyone is a candidate. I was hoping someone here can tell me if I am??? It's important to note that I'd be doing this not because I want a fuller upper lip, although I wouldn't mind it. Most importantly, I need to ensure the lift looks totally natural. Can anyone help??? Thanks.
Answer: Upper lip lift candidacy Yes, however it is important that it be done keeping in mind the risk you have of an overly peaked/shortened philtrum/center of lip region. Do your homework to see other lip lifts by surgeons to make sure he/she can achieve your desired results.

Answer: Lip lift Hello This procedure may benefit younger and older patients alike. In younger patients, the procedure is typically used to avoid obtaining a plastic appearance with fillers. It is important to understand that not all lips will benefit from fillers. The lift gives the upper lip a lighter and more defined appearance with greater volume and tooth show. As you age, the upper lip loses volume and increases in length. When performed in older patients, the lift helps restore a more youthful facial balance and sensuality around the mouth. It also works wonders for improving lost lip volume as well as lipstick bleed lines and wrinkles.

Answer: Upper lip lift An upper lip lift does three things: 1. Shortens the distance of the base of the nose to the upper lip Vermilion. 2. Allows your upper teeth to be seen, which is aesthetically beneficial in most cases. 3. Everts the upper lip Vermilion (rolls it outwards) to a very minor degree. I tell my patients that if they are coming to me for an upper lip lift and expect a a good deal of added "real estate" to their upper lip, they will be disappointed. An upper lip lift will give you an alluring, model-type look as you see in the glossy fashion magazines. To get a complete assessment, a plastic surgeon needs to see you in person and also assess your upper lip against the backdrop of your upper teeth when your mouth is slightly parted.
