Dr. Meade's Versatile Lip Rejuvenation

Dr. Meade will make a delicate incision below the base of the nose and gently lift the upper lip to shorten the span so that the lip appears more youthful and exposes more of the deep pink, luscious color. The result is a lip that looks rejuvenated and more defined.

Understand that there is no standard age for a lip lift procedure, and Dr. Meade has helped many children suffering from cleft palates. However, when it comes to a lip lift, some people will undergo this surgery in their 20s, while others will choose it in their 60s or even their 70s when their skin has become more lax or wrinkled.

What are the Benefits of a Lip Lift?

A lip lift offers several benefits, including:

  • Enhanced lip volume and contour.
  • A shorter distance between the nose and upper lip (philtrum).
  • Correction of a "long" or "thin" upper lip.
  • Rejuvenates the skin around the lips by reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.

With permanent results and minimal scarring, patients experience increased confidence and satisfaction with their appearance post-procedure.

Who is a Candidate for a Lip Lift?

Candidates for a lip lift typically include:

  • Individuals who are bothered by a long or thin upper lip.
  • Asymmetry in lip shape, or a significant distance between the nose and upper lip (philtrum).
  • Be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the procedure's outcomes.

Candidates need to discuss their concerns and goals with Dr. Meade to determine if they are suitable candidates for a lip lift and to explore the most appropriate treatment options.

Preparing for Your Lip Lift

The preparation and post-surgery instructions are critical to follow for optimal results. As such, Dr. Meade may ask the following of you:

  • To undergo other medical evaluations.
  • Adjust or cease taking medication and dietary supplements.
  • To stop smoking and the consumption of alcohol and drugs.
  • Ensure you are well-hydrated, especially in the days leading up to your surgery.

The Lip Lift Procedure

The lip lift in Dallas, TX, by Dr. Meade is not painful. We administer a local anesthetic into the upper lip area to begin the process. This quickly numbs the deeper layers of the skin and the superficial tissue that will be repositioned, resulting in a more youthful and luscious appearance.

Recovery and Results

Unlike dermal filler lip lifts, which typically last 6 to 18 months, a surgical lip lift will last many years. In some rare cases, a patient may opt to undergo a 'touch-up' lip lift, usually done to make a minor adjustment.  

We're often asked if a lip lift will change the patient's smile. It will, slightly, but as the procedure heals and 'settles in,' most are pleased with the resulting, more youthful look.
