What is a Corner Lip Lift?

A corner lip lift is a cosmetic surgery that targets the sagging corners of the mouth. This procedure is ideal for those who have a naturally downturned mouth, which can give off an impression of sadness or dissatisfaction. Elevating the corners results in a more cheerful and youthful appearance.

What a Corner Lip Lift Addresses

A corner lip lift addresses the sagging or drooping corners of the mouth, which can create an appearance of sadness or dissatisfaction. The procedure involves making small incisions at the corners of the mouth to remove excess skin and lift the corners upward. This results in a more lifted, youthful, and positive expression.

Techniques for Corner Lip Lift:

  • Direct Lift: Small incisions are made directly at the corners of the mouth to lift and secure the tissues.
  • Corner Wedge Excision: A small wedge of skin is removed from each corner of the mouth, lifting and repositioning the lips.
