Lip lift

This type of treatment is dedicated to people who have a distance from the nose to the upper lip longer than 1.5 cm, and in addition have a narrow vermilion on the upper lip. This situation is mainly the domain of elderly people, but not only.

There are several variants of the procedure, but the most famous is the bullhorn lip lift, which is very popular in Hollywood celebrities. It consists in designing cuts at the base of the nose in such a way that after healing the scars are hidden in natural folds and wrinkles under the nose, and the shape of the skin removal resembles bull horns, hence the name of this method. This type of treatment gives the effect of rejuvenation, but also, and maybe most of all, enlarges the area of the lip vermilion on the upper lip and thus no longer requires the lip enlargement. The lip enlargement by fillers pushes lip forwards, give an effect duck's beak.
This type of surgery does not distort the lips in this way. It nicely enlarges them, and it is a permanent effect, not like temporary fillers.
