Abstract

The lip lift is a powerful yet finesse operation in the realm of facial rejuvenation. In an era of increased popularity of nonsurgical lip augmentation, the astute plastic surgeon must identify which patients will end up with an unnatural appearance should they receive volume enhancement alone in pursuit of central facial and perioral rejuvenation. In this article, the authors review the ideal youthful lip appearance, characteristics of the aged lip appearance, and indications for lifting. The authors present their preferred surgical technique, the underlying principles that it respects, and adjunct procedures to optimize results in central facial rejuvenation.
