My upper lip began to sink to prior position about six months post-op. I wondered if it could have been caused by the dissolvable stitches popping out so quickly. Rather than dissolve, they just sprung out within weeks of the procedure.
It was a big undertaking and expense to have no benefit from.

side by side comparison photo
I am 2 days short of 6 weeks post-op and feeling fine.
I had my picture taken the other day and I thought I'd post them side by side.
The light is different in both pix. The angle and expression is also different. Consider also slight swelling in "after" photo. However, I see the shortened distance in upper lip.
I am quite happy with the shortened distance and appearance after the lip lift.
As soon as I have time, I'll add a photo where the pose and angle match.
I just happened to have had this pic taken and thought this would be interesting to post.

It looks absolutely fantastic. Natural, but noticeable. Thank you so much for your thorough posts!

Day 18 Post-Op
Healing very well. I am very happy with the outcome of the procedure. I like the new appearance of my lips and smile. Dr. Langdon did a fantastic job. I'm very happy that it was done. I've gone to soft foods only (should've done that sooner, Duh!) and I just cut crunchy veggies smaller. The scar covers with make-up well enough, it's a little hard getting it into little tiny crevices, as I continue to heal, the smoother the make-up application. I am trying not to cry. (lost my cat)
