Lip Lift

I’d researched for over a year, narrowed it down, found Dr. Rodriguez on this site, and made the consultation appt. Dr. Rodriguez and his staff are extremely friendly and professional. All of my questions and concerns were answered and I left knowing I’d made the right decision to continue further. After sending payment for a 25 Nov date for the procedure, I was called by the Patient Coordinator, Vanessa, who not only helped me get a rapid COVID Test executed, but also accommodated me with an earlier date of 16 Nov. After the procedure in that date, Vanessa reached out to ensure all is well, which it is. Only 2 days later and I already love the results. I had this androgynous thing going on with my top lip being longer than I’d like. Dr. Rodriguez allowed me to show how much of my lip needed to go; and with his skill and expertise, he gave me the lips I’ve always wanted. I absolutely love them. Here’s some before and during pics; I still have a bit of healing to do, hence the fresh surgical glue, swelling, and markings. Super excited about what the future holds.

Looks beautiful! The Doctor did a great job. Do you know how many mm he took off?

Thank you so much!! If I’m not mistaken I believe it was 7mm. I have an overbite, and since I was a little girl, my top lip accommodated that overbite so my lip was pretty long. I smile a lot, and, people could never tell really but I could.

You look great. I have a consult on 12-29 . My bf is so against this . And I’m super nervous bc I’m 60 snd have to be more careful of it fitting and older face . My Philtrum is 22 mm and I have thin lips and wide mouth . Another doctor said I need the older method being lifted at lip line and not bullhorn . Wonder what RR will say .

Thank you so much!! His hands are really gifted!! The thing I loved is he allows you to tell him what it is you want and not the other way around. The way I pulled my lip up is exactly the result he gave me, of course, with his natural ability to make the procedure look seamless.

It looks so good! Do you feel it has widened your nose? I want to get the procedure done but I'm so worried about scaring! What is the after care like? Please share more photos!

Thank you so much!! Truthfully no, I don’t believe it did at all. The only time my nose was wider is during the initial swelling which subsided within the 1st 3-4 days. I know everyone’s different and may stay swollen shorter or longer periods but once it went down my nose returned to it’s natural size.

So far so definitely good!! I’m still a lil numb right up under my nose but all is good. Oh, now since it’s cold, noses tend to run, mine included. And since it’s still a little numb, I sometimes don’t realize my nose is running until it touches my top lip lol. But this too shall pass because I love the results! I hope you guys do too. And if you are in this area and requiring a lift, please go see Dr Rodriguez. You’d be shortchanging yourself if you don’t.

Honestly, I can’t even tell you’ve done a thing! I don’t see a scar!
December 4, 2020
Yeeess!! This is one of the many things I loved about his technique. Scarring is so minimal! I also had deep smile lines and wouldn’t you know it, those are a thing of the past too!
