About Lip Lift
Shorten Skin in Upper Lip
A lip lift in Southlake, Texas is a surgical procedure to remove excess skin in the upper lip to shorten its vertical length. As we age, the distance of skin from the base of the nose to the upper lip border is often elongated.
The lip lift shortens this distance to create a youthful lip and creates a slight eversion or ‘pout’ of the upper lip. The scar is well concealed in the base of the nose along its natural curvatures. With a lip lift in Southlake, our patients can perfect their pout and have beautiful lips they can be confident in.
