Lip Lift Timonium, MD | Ricardo L. Rodriguez MD, LLC

What is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a surgical procedure that raises the upper lip to create a more youthful, relaxed smile. Two primary types of lip lifts are available: upper lip lift and corner lip lift.

Upper Lip Lift

An upper lip lift shortens the distance between the upper lip and the base of the nose. This technique increases visible "pink lip", exposes more teeth, and creates fuller, more youthful-looking lips.

Corner Lip Lift

A corner lip lift focuses on the mouth's corners and is designed for individuals who feel they have a permanent frown. This procedure slightly elevates the lip corners to create a more balanced, positive facial expression.

Who Benefits from a Lip Lift?

• Patients with long space above the upper lip
• Individuals whose teeth do not show when smiling
• People experiencing aesthetic concerns with lip appearance
• Those wanting to correct "duck lips" from previous filler treatments
