Procedures Performed: Conservative Upper Lip Lift
Following a conservative upper lip lift, this patient benefited from subtle yet meaningful enhancement to the balance and proportion of her upper lip. This procedure involved removing a small, precise strip of skin just beneath the base of the nose, shortening the philtrum (the space between the nose and upper lip). By carefully tailoring the incision and adjusting the tissue, the surgeon was able to elevate the upper lip while preserving a natural, unoperated appearance. This conservative approach avoided excessive lift, instead focusing on improving lip shape and enhancing tooth show, which contributes to a more youthful and aesthetically balanced smile. The result is a refined, natural enhancement that fits seamlessly with her facial features, without looking overdone or artificial.
