Youthful lips that will last a lifetime

No more fillers - one procedure for permanent results

If you’re dismayed by the shape and height of your lips, a lip lift can be the long-lasting solution you’ve been searching for. After one procedure, you can enjoy lips that look fuller, younger, and more proportionate to your face.

A lip lift is a perfect alternative to lip fillers.

A Lip Lift at Renuance (Murrieta & Temecula, CA) addresses:
  • A thin upper lip that “disappears” when you smile
  • The space between your lips and nose making you look older
  • Definition of the “cupid’s bow” shape in your upper lip
  • Restoring a fuller, higher lip position from your youth
  • Asymmetrical facial structure and balance

Chelsea was super professional. I loved that as soon as she saw me she knew what she wanted to do with my face! Haha I love the results! I am super happy and have referred friends to her! I will continue to see her!
My experience with Dr Filip and staff has been exceptional from the first visit and continues to be. Dr.Filip performed a breast lift as well as an implant swap and my results are far beter than I could have imagined. He is gifted in surgery but also in client care. He makes you feel at ease and never rushed. My husband and I are so pleased with my results, I have scheduled another proceedure with him that will take place in a few weeks. Nothing but great things to say all around.
Great consultation. Dr Debbie was thorough and considerate of my concerns and wish list. My treatment was fast and pain free. The results are better than previous injectors at other locations not associated with this office.
I had known of two people who used this doctor so that helps with my decision. We have had other medical issues come up so I might have to delay.
Dr Debbie listens and cares about making patients comfortable before, during and after the procedure.
I love the results. It looks very natural and has given me a boost in confidence. Plus entire staff to doctor were all very kind, passionate and respectful. They really care about their patients and how they feel.
From the initial consultation and meeting Dr. Ford, I knew I made the right decision in choosing her. She answered my long list of questions, she made me feel so comfortable and she was so confident that I would be happy with my results. Fast forward to 2months post op, I am loving my results! She did an amazing job! I am so happy with the job she did! I would recommend her to anyone and everyone looking to have a mommy make over/ tummy tuck. She also performed chin lipo on me and I feel like I can finally take family pictures with confidence. She has changed my life!
Dr. Debbie was wonderful! She always listens and answers all of my questions and always make sure that I am not experiencing any pain. She did a wonderful job!
This is my second surgery performed by Dr. Filip. My results are far better than I even imagined. I am so very pleased with his level of skill and care. His attention to detail is reassuring and calming. I certainly have found my Dr. for any future surguerys or procedures. I have highly reccomend him to family and friends as well.The staff is awesome. I look forward to my visits due to the warm and friendly atmosphere they provide.
Always great service staff is very nice and Dr. Debbie understands exactly what I want and listens and is awesome!

FAQ

What exactly happens during a lip lift procedure?

A lip lift is performed under local anesthesia with or without light sedation and only takes about one hour. Frequetly, lip lifts are performed in combination with other procedures such as facelifts and fat grafting. The surgeon makes a precise incision hidden under your nose, removes a small strip of skin, and lifts the upper lip to its new position. This reshapes your lip line and creates that natural, lifted appearance. You’ll be able to go home the same day.

Will people be able to tell I had surgery?

The incision is carefully placed in the natural crease where your nose meets your upper lip, making it very discreet. While there will be a fine-line scar, most patients find that with proper scar care, it becomes barely noticeable after 6-12 months. We’ll give you specific instructions on how to minimize scarring during healing.

How painful is recovery? When can I go back to work and social activities?

Most patients describe the discomfort as moderate and easily managed with prescribed pain medication for the first few days. You’ll have swelling and bruising that peaks around days 3-4. Most people feel comfortable returning to work after 7-10 days, though you may want to wait 2 weeks for important social events. The full recovery process takes 4-6 weeks for all swelling to resolve.

I've been getting lip fillers for years - how is this different?

Unlike fillers, which add volume but don’t change lip position, a lip lift actually reshapes the upper lip by shortening the space between the nose and lip. This creates a more permanent solution that shows more teeth when you smile and restores a more youthful lip position. Many patients find they no longer need fillers after a lip lift, though some choose to combine both for optimal results. It is also possible to have fat grafting placed in the lips at the time of the lip lift.

How do I know if I'm a good candidate?

The best candidates are those with an elongated upper lip area (typically more than 15-18mm from nose to lip border), those whose upper lip tends to disappear when smiling, or those wanting a more permanent solution than fillers. Natural lip thickness isn’t as important as the distance between your nose and upper lip. During your consultation, we’ll assess your facial proportions and discuss whether a lip lift would achieve your goals.

What happens years down the road?

A lip lift creates permanent changes to your lip position, though your face will continue to age naturally. Most patients never need a revision, but your results will age with you. Some patients choose to maintain their results with occasional fillers after several years, while others remain satisfied with their surgical results alone.

When will I feel "normal" again and be able to eat and speak comfortably?

The first few days require soft foods and minimal talking. Most patients return to normal speaking within 5-7 days and regular eating within 2 weeks. Laughing, smiling widely, or making exaggerated expressions might feel tight for several weeks as the swelling resolves. Around the 6-week mark, most patients feel completely back to normal with their new lip position.

Will a lip lift affect the shape of my nose?

This is a valid concern since the incision is placed at the base of your nose. Our surgeon will carefully preserve your nostril shape and nasal base width. However, you should know that there can be some minor changes to how your nose base looks when you smile, as we’re adjusting the tissue below the nose.
Any changes are typically subtle, and most patients don’t notice them once they have healed. We take detailed measurements and photos during planning to ensure your nose-to-lip proportion stays balanced. If you’ve had previous nose surgery or are planning rhinoplasty, it’s important to let us know, as this can affect our surgical approach.
