Your doctor did an amazing job. Your entire face looks younger. So many of these lip lifts look so unnatural. Yours are beautiful. Considering having this done in March when I have my face lift.

Thank you for your review. Great results!
It appears that the endonasal technique used by your dr leaves minimal scaring. Can you tell me if there were incisions made around your nostrils, or only under columella, I can't tell from the photo.
Thanks in advance for your reply.

not stitches around nostrils.....only under columella......and that was minimal. I am very happy with the result.

Nice natural results. How is your smile after the procedure?

My smile seems unaffected. It feels a little funny, maybe a little stiff around stitch site, but it doesn't seem to change anything.

Day 8/ stitches out!

Got my stiches out yesterday. There were external and internal stitches. I actually did not know about the internal ones! But it was painless, and I'm happy with the way the incision is healing. Now for a little cover up!

Wow Jill, looking great! Thanks for the update.

Your surgeon's website has a procedures page where the lip lift is described as being done in about an hr and under general anesthesia. Did they give you several alternatives? And did he discuss different types of incisions and technical approaches....just wondering why you think the bullhorn might have been te better choice. Also did you see many before/afters. It seems your PS does mostly "body" work.

I learned that he "used to do the bullhorn style lift a few years back but changed due to the scar. The procedure he does now leaves very little. Mine won't even be noticeable in a few weeks.... Isn't so much now. No discussions of alternatives. This is the way they do it. I really very happy with the lift. But as I mentioned in an earlier post, I had filler taken out of my lips. Some of what I am seeing is the result of that. I will decide what to do about that after il healed a little more.
