Your scar looks great! Did you use scarguard? Hoping you can post a profile pic.
I didn't use anything, just baseline when first came out of surgery until the 10th day... Now only sunscreen and that's all, the skin will do its work:),, thanks for the positive feedback ❤️
You're scar and lip distance look really good. Congrats :)
The only thing I can't figure out from this photo is, if there's any swelling at the base of the nose. I expect the whole nose to be swollen for a bit and then subside, but I'm interested to know if you've noticed any change in the shape of the nostrils. I expect if there is any, other people won't notice it anyway - I don't see this from your photo - but I was wondering if you did.

I had my surgery on 1/07/2016 is being 3weeks, I decided to wait for my review until I was at least 2 weeks I will explain why later,, the good/ bad and truth of lip lift,, GOOD: surgery less that 1.5 hours, no pain, smooth like getting the nails done lol... The BAD: 2-5th day is so swollen I look like a horse on steroids!! My nose got upturned my nostrils were huge! I was a disaster,, the waiting and waiting got me frustrated. After 7 days I just put a bandage to camouflage my horse trendy look lol. The TRUTH: I feel so self consuous stil today at week 3! My face looks short lol, my lip and scar still swollen, I notice my days with drinking lots of water and sleeping with lots of pillows give me a better healing!

So happy for you! Swelling can take up to 4 months to completely resolve and lip to get to a natural state, but you look great now.
Your nose swelling is temporary so do not worry:)
Oh I am in love with my new lips lol,, I am not in desperate mode no more:),, I forgot to add, my doctor is very caring and always warn me about the whole process, thanks for the great comments!! ❤️❤️
You look great, and it's only 3 weeks!
Congrats !
Congrats !
Yes a little like ducky looking... Can't wait for the 3rd month!! My doctor is the best... Truly appreciate his work
Hi you look great! Do you know your measurements before and after surgery?
He removed .5cm. I took picture and measurements of extra skin after removal..jijiji.. Now I am 1.2 from center,,i am still swollen it may get to 1.cm after my lip if fully recover at 3months (( per my doctors advice))thanks for asking.
You look amazing. I had a liplift over 10 year ago with Dr. Haworth in Beverly Hills. It's funny, as I never thought about doing it until he suggested it.
I have been a model all my life...even now at 37!
It really made my face younger and opened up my mouth. There is a slight annoying scar than I've used retinoids, etc to make less noticeable. Makeup does wonders.
However, this procedure really makes the face look much younger..and i will not hesitate to do it again in the later years, as I think that it is an area (lip and nose to lip length ) that often goes overlooked in the aging process.
I'm a big fan!
Best of luck to you and I think that you'll only get happier!
