Understanding Excessively Long Upper Lips

An excessively long upper lip can significantly impact facial aesthetics by covering upper teeth and diminishing a person's smile. The Fairbanks Plastic Surgery Center offers specialized lip lift surgery to address this concern with precision and expertise.

Surgical Approach and Benefits

Dr. Grant R. Fairbanks has perfected a lip lift surgery technique that provides multiple advantages:

• Scars hidden in natural skin folds
• Preservation of lip muscle function
• Maintenance of natural lip sensation
• Enhanced facial proportions

Lip Lift Procedure Techniques

Multiple lip lift techniques are available to address individual patient needs:

• Bullhorn Lip Lift: Named for its distinctive incision pattern following natural facial curves
• Sub-Nasal Lip Lift: Focuses on the area directly beneath the nose
• Shortens the distance between nose and upper lip
• Maintains a natural, youthful appearance

Surgical Goals and Expectations

The primary objective of lip lift surgery is to achieve ideal facial proportions that enhance overall facial beauty. Patients who recognize facial disproportionality often experience significant satisfaction with the procedure's results.

Surgical Outcomes

Post-surgical expectations include initial firm scarring that softens over time, with patients maintaining typical lip sensation. The procedure aims to provide a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing facial profile.
