A lot has changed since the early days of LipLift Surgery…nowadays, the golden standard is a Modified Lip Lift also known as a Deep Plane Lip Lift.

Getting the scar right is probably the greatest challenge… it requires stability, avoidance of tension and great aftercare. 🥸
•
Even though we cannot put a number to it, I believe that the patient’s after-care weighs in about 20% of the final scar appearance…😵💫

We have an extensive list of do’s and dont’s including what type of tooth brush we suggest or what diet to have during the first week after surgery…have I mentioned I have German Surgeon OCD Syndrome 😅(just made this up) but every detail counts!
•
One thing that is critical to understand/accept: everyone’s healing is different and we as a team have to monitor you in the first weeks after surgery to make sure we stay on top of the game. Some patients heal like they were never touched by a scalpel and some require additional treatments (eg. Steroid injections, microneedling or laser treatments).

Key is to have a good understanding of what we can achieve, be honest with us about your life style and try your very best to follow our instructions…
