Lip lift
Lip lift is a cosmetic surgery operation that aims to give volume and volume to the lips by decongesting the distance between the upper lip and the nose. According to the golden ratio in facial aesthetics, the length of the column known as the ‘columella’ between the upper lip and the base of the nose should be between 12-15 millimeters on average. If this length is more than it should be compared to a person’s overall facial measurements and it bothers this person, it can be corrected by plastic surgery and volume and volume can be added to the lips in the same operation.
How is the application carried out?
In lip lift aesthetics, a minimal incision is opened under the base of the nose. This incision is symmetrical with the upper lip contour under the nose base. The upper lip is lifted upwards with aesthetic stitches by removing the excess skin in the targeted amount. Reducing the visibility of the columns to a minimum thanks to aesthetic stitches is the most important factor determining the success of the operation. In the same operation, volume can also be gained by applying filler material to the lips with injection techniques. The operation is completed under general anesthesia in an average of 1 hour. The patient can usually go home the same day.
The golden ratio is important in the distance between the nose, chin and lips.
Anyone who is uncomfortable with the excessive length and thinness of the distance above the upper lip, has completed facial development and is in good general health can benefit from this procedure. The distance between the upper lip – nose and the lower lip – chin distance should be equal according to the golden ratio The excessive length of this distance on the upper lip can cause the lower part of the face to look much longer than it is.
It is also preferred in smile aesthetics
At the same time; it can also benefit from lip lift aesthetics in smile aesthetics. When smiling, it is necessary to ensure the visibility of the teeth by lifting the upper lip upwards at a certain rate. The excessive length of the distance above the upper lip can also negatively affect the aesthetics of the smile. In addition, excessively thin lips can make a person look older and tired than they are. If this balance and symmetry is disturbed on the face, a person can benefit from lip lift aesthetics.
What are the side effects of lip lift surgery?
A slight swelling may occur on the lip for the first 1-2 days after lip lift aesthetics. Possible postoperative pain can be relieved with mild painkillers. As long as it is performed in a hospital environment by a specialist and experienced plastic surgeon from the field, the side effect rate is low. The healing process is completed within an average of 1 week. Although the results of the operation become visible immediately, the lips continue to take their ideal shape for an average of 1 year.
In which cases is lip lift surgery needed?
People who do not have the ideal upper nose length and lip volume and who are uncomfortable with the appearance of their lips may need lip lift aesthetics. With lip filler and lip lift aesthetics, a person can have a more balanced, energetic and symmetrical appearance. Thus, the face, lips and smile can be made into a more aesthetic appearance.
