I searched for several years to find the perfect Doctor to do my lip lift. After a night of google searches I came across an article that was published in a highly respected medical journal titled, "The Endonasal Lip Lift: Personal Technique", written by Dr. Scott Harris. After reading the article,I hoped that the Doctor was close enough to me where I would be able to see him. I got lucky, he was a 5 hour drive away and it was worth every mile. Now I wait patiently for the scar to heal.

It looks great! Please keep us posted. I also really want this down by Dr. Harris. He did my face life and lip implant in March with great results. I regret not doing the lip lift at the same time. Can't wait to see your results and how quickly you recover :)

your lips look beautiful. Very natural result. Can't wait to see after swelling goes down.

Thanks so much for your review and pics. I've saved this and will show my Dr who I have an appointment with in a couple of weeks. This is exactly the outcome I'm looking for :-) I won't have the procedure done unless the scars go up into the nostrils as yours has.

Sorry to hear that but hope you have some medication to help. You look fantastic and can't wait to see it when things have calmed down. I am also considering this doctor after a facelift I am having in September.
Cheers

Dr. Harris is wonderful. Is he doing your face lift? If not, would you mind sharing?
July 30, 2016
He is not. Although I would trust him, I can't afford him. I am going to Costa Rica and Dr Alberto Arguello. Dr Arguello is a highly respected PS and is well loved by many Real Self colleagues.

A lip lift is such a specialized procedure that not many docs do a lot of so I will likely be traveling to Texas for that part later.

Take a look at Dr. Marley in Ashville, NC. He's one of the best in face lifts while being very reasonably priced. Dr. Harris quoted me $8,000 for face lift. No quite sure yet.

Woke up in unexpected pain with swollen eyes. Definitely taking these pain meds. I have read many other lip lift reviews that consistently say that the pain was not bad enough for medication. In my case its the opposite. The incision is healing well though.

I am so sorry you are in pain. I can tell that you will have beautiful results. But if the pain continues, I would call your doctors office tomorrow.

Hang in there, it's so worth it ! The first week, with all the swelling and discomfort must be tough.
The most important is you are healing well.
Are you going back to Dr Harris to have stitches removed?

Actually Dr Harris has a colleague in San Antonio that is going to remove stitches for me so I don't have to drive 5 hours to see him.
There is a great improvement in the distance and shape of your upper lip. Do you know how much was removed , what was your upper lip length before?
Wishing you quick recovery !
What did Dr Harris recommend to clean/ apply to incision to minimize scarring ?
Looking forward to your updates!
