Am I a good candidate for a lip lift? (Photo)

I think you could handle a gentle lip lift, although I would also want to see how your lip rests against your teeth when you are not smiling. Although I would check on what appears to be cheilitis first as you don't want your surgery to heal poorly. Good luck!

You would be an excellent candidate for a 3D upper lip lift (an enhanced version of the traditional lip lift), as well as a medialized corner lip lift (the only procedure capable of lifting the sides of your upper lip).

Best of luck!"

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. You would be a good candidate for a lip lift.

Best Wishes,

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.
