A lip lift is a simple and quick technique, performed at the same time as a mini facelift or isolated, with local anesthesia.

The lips occupy a central place on the face, similar to our eyes. When communicating with other people, we constantly pay attention to the eyes and mouth.

Liplift

Lip composition

  • Filter depression

  • Filter columns

  • Cupid's bow

  • White roll

Signs of aging

Aging of this area is usually characterized by elongation of the white lip, decreased visualization of the red lip (vermilion) and perioral wrinkles (barcode).

Filling vs Lip lift

The artificial look of a lip with too much hyaluronic acid occurs because volumizing is the only means of defense. Currently, modern solutions are much more logical as they essentially work to reposition the anatomy of youth.
A typical aging lip requires:

  • Lifting to reduce excess skin;

  • Resurfacing or peeling to improve skin quality;

  • Eventual soft volumizing of vermilion and white roll;

  • Nanofat for skin quality.
