Lip Lift Before & After Case 2597

This patient came to the practice seeking a revision Lip Lift in Los Angeles after having undergone similar procedures about a decade earlier. At age 54, she noticed early results from prior surgeries fading over time. Her main goals were to refresh the shape of her lips, restore a more youthful appearance, and soften the lines around her mouth. She reported feeling ready for subtle improvement with a natural look.

During the examination, Dr. David Stoker confirmed the patient’s previous lip lifts had healed well but saw opportunities for additional enhancement. The updated procedure included a precise revision upper lip lift, carefully placed to minimize incision visibility beneath her nose. Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing complemented the surgical result by smoothing fine peri-oral lines that had developed with aging.

The patient's post-procedure photographs show a more defined Cupid’s bow and natural-appearing philtrum columns. The lips now appear gently upturned with less inward curling, contributing to an overall softer and more rejuvenated perioral area. Her scars healed inconspicuously, even with this being her second upper lip lift.
