Lip Lift
Lip lift is an innovative procedure designed at first to rejuvenate the upper lip, but whose excellent results have led us to use it today to achieve more attractive and voluminous lips.
Over time the appearance of our lips lose their shape. The upper lip becomes thinner and the philtrum lengthens, which is identified as a sign of aging of the face. The philtrum, the area of skin that joins the nose with the upper lip, descends as we age, becoming flat and lengthening, and with Lip Lift we can easily correct it

Lip lift with Lip Lift treatment
It is an outpatient technique that is performed under local anesthesia. It is performed through an incision in the lip hidden inside the nose and with procedures on the orbicularis muscle depending on the objective we want to achieve.
This is followed by a resection of a part of the skin of the filtrum that is left over and a totally invisible intradermal suture is made, guaranteeing not to leave any type of visible scar.
With Lip Lift we achieve a shorter upper lip lift, with greater volume and projection of the vermilion, at the same time that we can obtain a greater exposure of the teeth at rest. In short, more attractive and sensual lips.
The lip lift or Lip Lift in Maxillos offers desired results to our patients with the maximum naturalness.
