Hi! Sorry I never saw these questions until just now! I'll try and answer them. I think it is called a lip corner lift. My doctor is Khash Dehghan MD in Tacoma WA.
He numbed my face then he cut on the lines that run from your nose to your lip, cut out a piece and stitched it back together so that it lifts up the lip corner. There is a scar but it is in the line in the crease so it looks like it is just the crease pretty much. I would definitely want someone I trusted a lot to do this because even though it is very quick and easy he is leaving a scar on your face so really make sure you trust your doctor! I had had other work done by him and I knew how my skin healed so I knew that my scars would be very light so that it wouldn't be a problem.

My lip corners were making me look grumpy so my doctor lifted them in his office with local anesthesia. It took like 20 min! It healed really well and didn't hurt at all. I would advise some time off of work though, because there are stitches in your face! I covered up with make up and looked fine in about two weeks. As the doctor warned there would be, there are slight scars but they are not really noticeable.

Is this what is called a "grin lift"? Where did you have the procedure?
Thanks!

Likewise; I want to know more... procedure name please. This made an impressive difference in your resting mouth! You look great. Was it a corner lip lift and if so did your dr. suture the top corner of lip or both bottom and top corners?

"he cut on the lines that run from your nose to your lip". If this is a corner lip lift, I had always read there is a small slice cut at the upper lip's outter corners. Can you describe the cut line a bit more clearly? Did you mean the marionette line area? Thank you & enjoy your pretty smile.
