A lip lift is a type of procedure that focuses on the upper lip via surgery that shortens the distance between the nose and the upper lip. It also augments the size of both lips by rolling the top one up and increasing how much of it is shown. This procedure can also fix asymmetry in your lip as well as reduce signs of aging.
A lip lift can play a pivotal role in reshaping the facial appearance using just a few small adjustments.
Some people find they’re unhappy with the size difference between their upper and lower lips. They may feel the top lip is longer or thinner than the bottom lip, creating an uneven look between the two, a severe expression, or signs of aging.
This type of cosmetic procedure targets the upper lip, providing a number of benefits, including:
During your lip lift Temecula surgeons at Renuance will create an incision at the base of your nose that will follow its natural creases. The doctor will then pull the skin upward, exposing more of the upper lip. Extra skin and tissue will then be removed, and the incision will be stitched closed. The surgery can take up to two hours to complete. Afterward, you’ll be sent to a recovery room to come out of anesthesia.
After your surgery, there will be some swelling that can last up to three days. It’s recommended to use ice compresses on the area, which can reduce swelling and bruising. Your stitches will remain in for up to a week before they are removed by the doctor. Full healing can take up to three months.
This procedure directly affects your upper lift, helping erase creases along your cheeks, which will make you regain a more youthful appearance.
It also creates a natural, permanent look that will brighten your expression, allowing you to look more relaxed and happy. Although the results will be immediately visible, swelling can take up to three months to fade, so you may not see the full results of your subnasal lip lift until then.

If you are unhappy with your upper lip due to its size or shape and feel it makes your expression look severe or unfriendly, or gives you deeper lines on your face, a subnasal lip lift can alleviate this and restore your self-confidence by creating a permanent new look to your face. By lifting your upper lift, you can look both younger and happier.
If you’re interested in receiving a subnasal lip lift Temecula based plastic surgery practice Renuance Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa requires that you first meet for a consultation to establish your eligibility. The best candidates have a longer upper lip (whether from genetics or aging), are nonsmokers, and are in generally good health. They also do not have any active infection on or around their mouth.
Because this procedure requires an incision, there is likely to be soreness, tenderness, and bruising afterward. The doctor can prescribe pain medication if needed, although you can also take over-the-counter pain relievers if you prefer.
The price will vary based on the extent of the surgery and if you combine it with any other treatments or procedures. In addition, because this type of procedure is generally an elective plastic surgery, most insurance providers do not cover the costs. The Renuance Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa does off payment and financing plans that can help cover the costs.
