Love it
Its been almost a year now and I just love my lip lift. The scar healed so well. I'm so much happier in general and I wish I got it years ago. I used to get lip filler so often, almost every other month. Now I plan on getting lip filler once a year if that. I just wanted to share my experience of having the lip lift for some time now, I'm so pleased with the results!

So happy for you! Great job with the postop care!
I'm So Happy with my Lip Lift!
I love my lip lift so much! I've always disliked my longer philtrum. I've wanted this surgery for 10 years and Im so glad I did it! It feels amazing to put an insecurity to rest. The price is high, but 100% worth it.
My experience with Dr. Linkov was great! He made me feel at ease during the entire process. He has such a warm presence and his dedication to his work makes it obvious to choose him as you surgeon. I was nervous about the thought of surgery on my face, but I knew I could trust his expertise. And his staff is wonderful and accommodating.
My starting distance was 14mm and we decided to remove 5mm. During surgery I felt calm and comfortable. The healing process wasn't too stressful. After those 2 weeks of limited movement, I felt back to normal. I've had quite a bit of plastic surgery in my recent past and this was by far the easiest surgery I healed from.
I bought a wedge pillow to lay upright to help with swelling, a neck pillow to prevent side sleeping, and I ate food in front of a mirror to monitor my stitches as I ate. These are things I would personally recommend to do, as you don't want to put stress on the stitches during those 2 weeks.
I'm still applying the scar gel, and my scar looks great. His stitching was perfect and the scar is so thin. I also see that the base of my nose looks better; more symmetrical after the lip lift. I love how much harmony my face now has. My dad is less than excited about my plastic surgery endeavors (lol) and he saw my lip lift and he actually likes it! My results look natural and yet it's a huge difference, before and after.
So, if you want a beautiful lip lift, I highly recommend Dr. Linkov!
