Enhance Your Upper Lip With Upper Lip Lift Surgery in Turkey
Upper lip lift is an aesthetic plastic surgery procedure to enhance the length and shape of the upper lift. There are a number of factors that can lead to the loss of lip plumpness, making your upper lift appear imbalanced in light of your overall facial features. This aesthetically undesirable condition is also referred to as Long Upper Lip Syndrome.
Genetics, aging, environmental factors, and hormonal imbalances usually take toll on our upper lips, making them appear saggy and hanging. The upper lip lift, is a very effective procedure to treat saggy, loose, disproportionate, and poorly shaped upper lips.
In light of this surgery, when we say the upper lip, it refers to the area between the nose’s central pole and the rosy-pink area of the lip. For your upper lip to appear proportional and aesthetically appealing, this area should generally be between 12 to 15 millimeters. However, it can be different depending on your facial features. If your upper lift is substantially above 15 millimeters, it has an abnormal length and needs to be corrected through the bull horn upper lip lift surgery.
When to Consider Upper Lip Lift Surgery?
You should consider the upper lip lift if:
- Your upper lip appears to be too long for your lower face.
- The dimension of your upper lip in the perpendicular direction looks similar in length to the lower lip-chin.
- You aim to achieve more harmony and stability between your upper and lower lips.
- You have a longer upper lip that is blocking your teeth to a greater extent when you smile.
- You have insufficient incisor show.
How is Upper Lip Lift Surgery Performed?
The upper lip lift surgery can be performed as both inpatient and outpatient procedure under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. During the procedure, your plastic surgeon will remove the excess skin from the upper lift, so its vertical length could be decreased. To do this, your surgeon may place an incision along the lip roll and excise a tiny part of the skin, using the subnasale upper lip lift technique or the more popular inner nose incision method.
The subnasal upper lip lift involves placing an incision below the nose until it meets the upper lip. The upper end of the incision would trail the natural outline of the lip below the nose. On the other hand, the lower end helps provide an estimation of the amount of skin that needs to be excised. The excess skin will then be excised.
Next, the cut ends will be joined together, which will raise the upper lip. The plastic surgeon will then apply the suture and close the incision. The edges of the skin are then accurately arranged to make sure that the incisions are less noticeable. The bad news is that this technique leaves behind excessive scarring.
Scarless Upper Lip Lift Surgery
There is also a third option, Scarless Upper Lip Lift which involves placing of the incision inside the nose and performing the procedure from within the nose. At Harmonia Surgical Tourism, Turkey, laser technology is sued as part of the procedure, because it involves minimum downtime, bleeding, and scarring. This option comes with additional benefits, including completely invisible scar. The tip of the nose may also be raised to make you aesthetically more appealing, which is another great advantage of this technique. The aesthetic improvements achieved through this technique are also relatively better. Another benefit of this method is that it is performed under local anesthesia.
Candidacy for Upper Lip Lift
If you are not happy with the length, contour, or shape of your upper lip, you may qualify for the upper lift surgery. However, to be a good candidate for the procedure, you must be in good health. Also, your aesthetic goals and expectations must be reasonable and realistic. If you are suffering from any medical issue or are taking certain medications, you must share this information with your doctor during the initial consultation.
If you are unable to visit Turkey from abroad or another city for an in-person consultation, our aesthetic plastic surgeons can determine your candidacy for the procedure by simply looking at some pictures of your lips and overall facial features.
