Facelift and Lip Lift: Are these two procedures ever done at the same time? (photo)

Yes, the two procedures are often combined together.  Patients with jowl and neck skin laxity often have a loss of skin quality around the mouth as well.  This can appear as a long or "horsey" upper lip.  A lip lift done conservatively can significantly improve this.  In addition, laser resurfacing with either the CO2 or Erbium laser can tighten and shorten the upper lip if your lip shape isn't ideal for a lift.  

Thank you for your question.  The short answer is yes,  This can also be combined with laser in the perioral area to address fine lines as well.  Best to speak to a board certified plastic surgeon.  All the best,

As I carefully examine your image, it looks as if you would be an excellent candidate for a facelift, neck lift, as well as a lip-lift procedure. These procedures can be done at the same time if you have been medical cleared by your primary-care physician. Your recovery time will overlap for each procedure, and will save you reduced cost in operating-room and surgical fees.  Some surgeons will add voluminous amounts of filler to the lips rather than performing the lip-lift procedure, but in your case, only a very small amount of filler would look natural on you, which is why the lip-lift would be recommended. For best results, please consult with a board certified plastic surgeon with a wealth of knowledge and experience with facelifting surgery.
