I'm a 31 year old female. I measured my philtrum today and it is 22 mm long, which is ridiculously long. I read that the ideal female philtrum is 11-13 mm, is this true? Should I tell my surgeon that I want him to make my philtrum 12 mm in length??

Thank you for your question. I suggest that you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon to determine your candidacy because a lip lift surgery can create subtle and natural looking improvements to your appearance.
Best wishes,
The Grin Lift is a corner of the mouth lift. It is neither new or uncommonly performed. It changes the downsloping of the mouth corners to a more horizontal position. There are different variations of the mouth corner lift. Newer techniques keep the scars around the corner of the mouth more...
Hello,I'm likely the busiest surgeon in the world at lip lifts, as I do often 5+ each week, and I lecture on it widely. We hide the scar in the nose or in the groove under the nose.Watch the video for more information. Flared nostrils would not be expected.
