Lip Lift (Upper White Lip)
Restore the balance of your face by shortening the space between the nose and the mouth. A delicate procedure for a rejuvenated smile and a subtly enhanced femininity.
The Harmony of the Smile
Over time or through genetics, the philtrum (the white lip located between the base of the nose and the red lip) can become excessively elongated. This elongation hides the upper incisors at rest, tips the red lip inward, and gives the face a severe or tired appearance.
The lip lift, or Lip Lift, corrects this excess skin to restore the smile's full vitality and original freshness.

The Surgical Procedure
“Renewal often lies within a millimeter. A high-precision technique for a natural, definitive result.”
The Procedure
The operation is performed under local anesthesia (or light sedation) and lasts about 45 minutes. It consists of removing a thin strip of skin in a "bull's horn" shape at the base of the nostrils.
Invisible Scar
The incision is carefully concealed in the natural folds beneath the nose. Thanks to microscopic sutures, the scar becomes virtually invisible after a few months.
Recovery
Recovery is quick. The sutures are removed at 6 days. Slight swelling may persist for a few days, but the effect on the volume of the red lip and the height of the philtrum is immediate.
