With the aging process, the upper lift often deflates and elongates, compromising a youthful smile. A flattened upper lip may detract from the balance of the features and leave the patient feeling self-conscious. A lip lift in New Jersey is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to shorten the distance between the upper lip and the nose, restoring a youthful and elegant appearance.
What is a Lip Lift?
A lip lift is designed to rejuvenate the smile and create a more youthful, engaging appearance. Many patients choose a lip lift over dermal fillers due to its longer-lasting and more dramatic anti-aging results. The procedure enhances upper lip volume and provides a modicum of tooth show.
During the surgery, Dr. Parakh will remove a tiny piece of skin from under the nose, reducing the length of the philtrum. This allows the upper lip to gently roll upward, creating a more feminine-looking countenance. After a lip lift, the upper lip looks fuller, plumper, and more alluring.
Dr. Parakh will carefully measure the lip proportions and perform the treatment with painstaking detail. A lip lift in New Jersey with Dr. Parakh takes about one hour to perform, and only local anesthesia is typically required. Thanks to Dr. Parakh’s artistic eye, results are nuanced and natural-looking.
