What a lip lift is

Distance is not filler.

A lip lift is an approach in which the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip is discussed. Its medical name is lip lift. It is not the same as adding volume.

At the practice, what looks long or closed is heard first. Then the philtrum, the show of the teeth and the base of the nose are looked at.

Who comes in for a consultation

The smile is seen in the room.

Those bothered by a long-looking upper lip or by the show of the teeth may come in for a first consultation. Whether it suits you is not written here.

Filler or not operating at all may also be discussed. No decision is asked for on the same day.

The philtrum is measured face to face.
