Advanced Artistry in Deep Plane Lip Lifts
A lip lift is a surgical procedure that aims to rejuvenate, restore balance, or reshape the upper lip. As we age, the length of the upper lip elongates. Some people are born with a genetically long upper lip. Patients also complain that their upper lip disappears when they smile, making their mouth look older. All these factors contribute to an overall aged appearance of the face. A lip lift helps restore the upper lip to a more youthful look. A lip lift provides a permanent improvement in the shape and character of the upper lip.

Deep Plane Lip Lift
The New Gold Standard in Lip Lifts
A deep plane lip lift procedure is designed to shorten the distance between the base of the nose and the upper lip by removing a small strip of skin and tissue from the upper lip area.
What is unique about this procedure is that it is performed on the deep players of the face, specifically the deeper tissues of the upper lip known as the “deep plane”. This allows for a more natural and subtle enhancement of the lip area, as the procedure repositions and elevates the upper lip without the need for fillers, implants, and minimizes tension on the skin.
Compared to traditional lip lifts, which typically remove only skin and can result in a more obvious or unnatural appearance, deep plane lip lifts have the advantage of creating a more natural and lasting result.
It is important to note that deep plane lip lift surgery is a specialized procedure and requires the expertise of a highly skilled and experienced facial plastic surgeon like Dr. Sanan.
