Would I benefit from a lip lift? 53 y/o (photos)

Question

Am I a good candidate for lip lifting?Hello, I am 53 years old and after 3 years of dental treatment, the distance between nose and lip seems to have lengthened. Will surgery help me? The distance between the base of the nose and the arch of the lip is 19 mm

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.
