A lip lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to shorten the space between the upper lip and nose, enhancing lip shape and adding a subtle lift to the upper lip. Unlike fillers that add volume, a lip lift improves the natural contour and shape of the lip, creating a youthful, well-defined appearance. At Pablo Baltodano, MD Facial Plastic Surgery in Pembroke Pines, FL, Dr. Pablo Baltodano provides expert lip lift procedures for patients from Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, and surrounding areas, ensuring precise, natural-looking results that complement your facial features.
“Dr. Pablo is one of the best plastic surgeons I’ve ever seen. I love my results, and my belly button looks like I’ve never had surgery. I am extremely satisfied with my results and I will definitely recommend Dr. Pablo. Thank you, Dr. Pablo!”
Why Consider a Lip Lift?
With age, the upper lip can elongate, and the natural pink portion may become less visible, contributing to a more aged appearance. A lip lift rejuvenates the area, giving the lips a fuller, more defined look by increasing the amount of visible pink lip. It also provides benefits such as:
Enhanced Lip Shape
The procedure reshapes and lifts the upper lip, giving it a youthful curve without the need for fillers or implants.
Increased Lip Visibility
A lip lift enhances the appearance of the upper lip’s natural volume, making it look fuller and more balanced.
Long-Lasting Results
Unlike temporary solutions, a lip lift offers a permanent enhancement, creating a natural lift that lasts for years.
The Lip Lift Procedure
A lip lift involves a small incision made under the base of the nose, often called a “bullhorn” incision, due to its shape. Excess skin is carefully removed to lift the upper lip, shortening the distance between the lip and nose. Dr. Baltodano places the incision in natural contours to ensure minimal visibility and scarring. This technique allows for an increased amount of the pink part of the lip to be visible, enhancing its shape and creating a balanced, natural appearance.
