Lip lift with corner lift
Sep 7, 2022
Sep 7, 2022
Dear nebulosa96,Thanks for asking this question. You are a good candidate for a lip lift with corner lift. A lip lift will help shorten the distance between the base of your nose and the top of your lip. It would also increase the dental show at rest. A lip lift is done under local anesthesia (~60-90 mins), or can be done with sedation. It is a permanent procedure. The incision is placed under the nose and heals very favorably if done by an expert. Social downtime is 1-2 weeks because of lip…

Deep necklift
Sep 6, 2022
Sep 6, 2022
Dear hhtexasgirl, Thank you for your question and photos. You are a good candidate for a deep necklift. A deep necklift addresses the platysma muscle, deep neck fat and deep neck musculature. Your neck shape is genetic. It can be optimized. The limiting factor of how sharp your neck shape is your hyoid bone. I recommend you consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon. I hope this helps!
