Understanding Lip Lift Surgery

The lips are a defining feature of the face, and full, well-defined lips are often associated with youth and beauty. While dermal fillers offer temporary volume enhancement, a surgical lip lift provides permanent changes to a patient's lips.

What Is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a surgical procedure designed to shorten the philtrum—the area of skin between the top lip and the nose. By reducing this distance, Dr. Beaty increases the visible pink lip tissue, creating a fuller, more pronounced upper lip.

Surgical vs. Non-Surgical Lip Augmentation

Lip Lift: Surgical procedure to permanently reshape the upper lip
Lip Flip: Uses BOTOX to relax mouth muscles and create a fuller appearance
Lip Filler: Non-surgical volume enhancement using hyaluronic acid fillers

Lip Lift Candidates

Ideal candidates include individuals with thin lips, those experiencing age-related lip elongation, or patients seeking a permanent alternative to repeated dermal filler treatments. Patients should have at least 1.5 centimeters of philtrum length.

Procedure Details

Performed under local anesthesia, the lip lift involves carefully removing a precise amount of skin beneath the nose. Dr. Beaty makes strategic incisions to minimize visible scarring while achieving the desired lip elevation.

Types of Lip Lifts

Subnasal Bullhorn: Most common method, incision hidden at the nose base
Central Lip Lift: Focuses on the upper lip's central region
Corner Lip Lift: Elevates drooping mouth corners

Recovery and Results

Initial swelling is normal and will subside within 2-3 weeks. Full results become apparent after 2-3 months. Patients should follow post-operative instructions carefully to ensure optimal healing.

Natural-Looking Outcomes

As a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, Dr. Beaty specializes in delivering natural, tailored results that enhance your unique facial anatomy.

I am just over 2 months post-op from a lip lift and deep plane neck lift. I LOVE my results and they've turned out better than I ever expected. I get many compliments on my side profile and new lips from friends who know. Otherwise, you'd never know I did anything with how natural it looks. Even my nurse from surgery day had to ask me where my incisions were. This has been a game changer for my confidence. HIGHLY recommend!

I went in to have a discussion with Dr Mark Beaty about how my jawline and neck had changed, seemingly overnight, and received an awesome educational experience. The moment when I was standing with him in front of the mirror and he explained exactly how my face had aged and showed me what facial rejuvenation really meant I realized I need look no further, he was most definitely the surgeon I could put my trust in. There was not a question left unanswered, covering the full treatment plan, any concerns I had, my expectations and realistic expectations, to the one-night full care after surgery. Expertise, skill, compassion, respect and humanness is what I look for in a surgeon and I found them all. I had a face and necklift, pre jowl implant, upper blepharoplasty and laser treatment with Dr Beaty. Stitching was impeccable, I looked completely natural and had little bruising. I have since gone on to ask Dr Beaty to perform a rhinoplasty because I broke my nose as a child, lip lift and fat transfer, all with tremendous success. I suffer from rosacea and continue to visit his practice for IPL treatments every 6 weeks and full-face Erbium laser treatments twice a year. Being a high-level Google reviewer, I take this process very seriously. We rely on reviews to help us make the best decisions. When it comes to facial plastic surgery, this is an especially BIG decision and finding the best board-certified facial plastic surgeon was not one I made lightly. Dr Beaty is there for you before, during and after surgery. I must also mention his staff. I’m of the belief that staff should be nice and know their job, that’s what they’re hired for, so that part I just expect, I don’t write about that in my review (unless it isn’t so), but walking in there is like walking into the friendliest neighborhood. They’re diverse, accepting and full of warmth.

Hello, I am a 59 year old male who has had several Rhinoplastys over the years and had a filler mishap a couple of years ago and 2 top cosmetic surgeons tried to fix, I knew it could be better so I went to several consultations before I found Dr. Beaty, I loved his vision for me and felt comfortable with what he thought he'd be able to do for me based on my previous surgeries and his experience, I felt so comfortable with Dr. Beaty and loved his vision so much I decided to have several procedures done and the results are amazing, better than I could have hoped for, Dr. Beaty has given me my self esteem and self confidence back, so I can be the best version on myself and live my best life, you can't put a price on self, and finding and choosing the right Doctor is key, I highly recommend Dr. Beaty for all your cosmetic needs, and his staff is top notch, very helpful with all my concerns and very professional, definitely put me at ease throughout the whole process, thank you
