Lip Lift

One of the signs of aging is elongation of the upper lip.  A lip lift is an excellent procedure to rejuvenate the peri-oral region as there are two positive outcomes that can be achieved.  The first is to shorten the height of the lip and second is to make the lip flick out or increase the amount of vermilion (red part of the lip) on show, thus making it look fuller and rejuvenated.

The operation is performed under a local anaesthetic procedure with the scars hidden at the junction between the lip and the nose.  The suture material used is absorbable, therefore no suture removal is needed.
