Amazing upper lip lift on dark skin/brown skin by Dr Linkov

WORTH IT$4,000
3 week update:
speaking and pronunciation completely back to normal. i can brush normally, use a straw etc. It is difficult to fold lips together such as blot lipgloss or lipstick because it's still tight where the incision is but i can feel it getting better. Makeup goes on very well. The scar is still noticeable to me with makeup at this point but nothing too crazy. no one else really notices but me which is fine. Currently using Biocorneum serum ointment on my scar which is suppose to be the best thing for scars on the market.

photos before and after. If you have any question or concerns about how Im healing feel free to ask. Im happy to share what steps Im taking to heal well and minimize the scar overtime.I HAVE NO REGRETS.
Yes, there is a scar but it was well worth it for me compared to how I LOOK before the upper lip lift surgery. I don’t have to hide my lower face anymore or be super self-conscious about it. Surgery doesn't solve all your problems but it has definitely given me the freedom to look more youthful and more balanced.

You were or just before, but now even more stunning! Lucky you!
It is supposed to say gorgeous not "were or just" ;)
thaank you so much!
Spectacular.! Enjoy
Congratulations on your surgery! I have been wanting this surgery for a long time but I have health issues that make me hesitant. I am sure I would benefit greatly. Thank for sharing. I look forward to updates as you heal. BLESDINGS
thank you!!! Im so sorry about your health issues. Sending prayers and well wishes your way!
Yay, finally a lip lift review from a dark skin person!! I just don't know if I could live with a scar personally. Do you notice it each time you look n the mirror? Also do other people notice it (when you're not wearing makeup)?
its so hidden under my nose barely noticeable but there is a scar if looking up close in my face. luckily theres no need fr anyone to be that close to my face except me when looking in the mirror. No one not even family members have brought the scar to my attention. Keep in mind Im not even three months yet so yes scar is there and slightly visible without makeup but more-so to me. Ive yet to have anyone ask me about it. It was worth it for me because of how well balanced my face is now so I don't mind it

Looking good! :)
thank you :)
Thanks for sharing the pics! Looks gorgeous! So jealous that women who already have nice lips get even more lips! Those of us who have little lips will never get there, but at least a lip lift helps us too! Congrats!!
hahaha thank you so much! more lips weren't my intention but it's a bonus for sure lol
Looks amazing! Was the cost approximately $4k?
yes, for me it was
