Understanding Lip Lift Procedure

Correction of the aging lip requires addressing volume, proportion, and surface texture. As individuals age, lips lose volume and the upper lip can lengthen, often hiding teeth and creating visible wrinkles when smiling.

Surgical Technique

Lip Lift is a strategic procedure that shortens the distance between the nose and upper lip, exposing more of the red lip and potentially revealing more tooth show. From a lateral perspective, this technique can "roll" the lip upward, creating a more youthful appearance.

Comprehensive Approach

  • Strategic lip shortening
  • Corner mouth lift integration
  • Potential volume enhancement techniques
  • Surface texture considerations

Dr. Ivey is truly one of a kind—a godsend in the field of plastic surgery. His expertise is unmatched, and he takes the time to explain everything thoroughly, putting patients at ease. Thanks to Dr. Ivey, my rhinoplasty recovery was incredibly smooth and completely pain-free. I cannot recommend him highly enough he’s an exceptional surgeon I’d endorse a thousand times over.

I am a Plastic Surgeon from Australia and was on holiday in Hawaii earlier this year when I was accidentally injured. Dr Ivy, without knowing me at all, kindly fit me in to his busy day to promptly block and suture my laceration. He did a wonderful job, one that even satisfied my very high expectations. Lovely doctor. Great attention to detail. The patients of Maui are lucky to have him. Can highly recommend.
