Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Gull wing or bull horn, scarring query
lip lift
Feb 27, 2023
Gull-wing lip lifts place the incision (and scar) right at the vermillion border which is the junction of the red and white lip. The bullhorn technique places the incision (and scar) in the junction between the nose and face, just at the base of the nose in the natural shadows. It is true that the traditional bull horn lip lift preferentially lifts the center of the lip more than the corners so people who have thinning of the lips toward the corners can sometimes get an exaggerated central…
Which is better – incision in the hairline or just below the sideburn for lower facelift?
Facelift incisions
Feb 7, 2023
Traditional incisions that were placed behind the temporal tuft in the hair line hide well, but tend to pull the sideburn into the scalp and can give a very “operated” look. Most current surgical techniques use an incision that follows the sideburn a few hair follicles in. While these can be visible upon close inspection, with a good closure technique involving no/minimal tension and proper suture placement the scars can be almost invisible. This is a question that you should ask your…
Lip lift scar at 6 months post-op, will it improve from here?
Scar maturation
Feb 7, 2023
It takes around a year for scars to completely mature. Until that time the scar can change. From what I can see in the pictures, there is still some redness and a raised component to the scar that may continue to improve. I would speak to your surgeon about scar management but if you are not currently using silicon gel or patches and good sun protection I would start there. Beyond those, dermabrasion or lasers all have some efficacy with camouflaging scars.
Juvederm in marionette lines 5 years ago – do I have filler migration?
Laxity/buccal fat
Feb 7, 2023
Although an examination would tell more, it is unlikely that the areas in the photograph is filler migration. It appears more likely that you are showing early signs of aging with some laxity and possibly buccal fat pad protrusion. Although injections can somewhat mask these issues I would recommend seeing a board certified facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who can preform an in person exam and offer you options for treatment.
What type of lip lift would lift the two peaks of my upper lip and the corners of my mouth?
Corner lip lift
Jan 24, 2023
A corner lip lift is used to increase the red lip show on the corner of the lip. The traditional subnasal lip lift is great at lifting the central lip but due to the limits of where the incision can be placed, it preferentially lifts the central lip over the corners. The subnasal lip lift can be designed to take more laterally but it still has difficulty lifting the true corner. Many times I recommend a corner lip lift in combination with a subnasal lip lift or in isolation. I believe this…
Am I a good candidate for a lip lift? 18 mm philtrum
Lip Lift
Jan 24, 2023
It is very difficult to tell with the cropped pictures but 18 mm does measure on the longer side, however 5-6 mm is very short. Designing the amount to take and leave is one of the most important parts of the lip lift procedure. I typically tend towards leaving 10-14 mm depending on the age, nasal shape, lip shape, tooth show and patient desires. I would recommend setting up a consultation with a surgeon who can take good measurements and preform an assessment to let you know what is possible.
Upturned nose after rhinoplasty – Can it be brought back down to previous angle?
Nasofacial angle
Jan 24, 2023
Depending on the rhinoplasty technique used by your surgeon the nasofacial angle will change somewhat after surgery. Many times I over rotate the angle by 5-10 degrees knowing that, as it heals and swelling reduces, it will fall into place during the first couple months after surgery. There are certain massages that your surgeon can teach you to help this settle in the post operative period. If this persists beyond 12-18 months it may require a revision procedure.
