Understanding Lip Lift Surgery
Youthful, sensual lips are characterized by fullness, a well-defined Cupid's bow, and visible teeth when the mouth is relaxed. As aging progresses, these aesthetic features naturally diminish, with the upper lip lengthening and losing volume.
What is a Lip Lift?
A lip lift is a precise surgical procedure designed to elevate the upper lip, enhance volume, and improve the Cupid's bow definition. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Jon Kurkjian specializes in customizing this procedure to meet individual patient goals.
Lip Lift Benefits
- Reduced space between nose and upper lip
- Increased tooth visibility
- Enhanced Cupid's bow definition
- Improved lip volume and fullness
- More youthful mouth appearance
- Reduction of lipstick bleed lines
Procedure Details
Dr. Kurkjian performs the lip lift by making a discreet incision at the base of the nose. Excess skin is carefully removed, and the upper lip is elevated to create optimal fullness and prominence. The procedure typically takes 30-60 minutes and can be performed using local or general anesthesia.
Recovery Process
Patients can expect minor bruising and swelling following the procedure. Most individuals return to normal activities within 2-5 days, with full recovery occurring over several weeks. Dr. Kurkjian recommends avoiding wide mouth movements for 7-10 days post-surgery.
