Lip Lift in Korea?

I don’t think lip lifts are worth it for most people as they are not permanent and even the one talei does isn’t either, the lip will still continue to drop with age and gravity so prefer some filler instead
They are permanent and just like a facelift of course we age.. breast sag, eyes after eye lift will still sag… but once you cut skin, it’s gone forever. Filler can pull your lips down more.

That’s not true once you cut skin it’s not gone forever because skin is elastic it stretches! It will continue to sag and yeah if you overstuff with filler it will pull down but key is to enhance not overfill, and techniques like Russian lips inject the Cupid’s bow vertically not outward that’s what I’m trying next

have you had your revision yet? if so how did it go?
Hi, I am heading to Florida this week and I am scared ****less. I have faith in Dr. Mascaro so I will try and remain optimistic. He is just going to cut the scar out and nothing more. I do not want to go any shorter. I was a candidate for a lip lift because my philtrum was over 20mm and I am in my late 40s. If you are young and just want your lips bigger, please don't do it.

Good luck! You should be in good hands. Let us know how it goes.

Hey everyone,

Wanted to add onto this post to share the great experience I've had (at least so far :amuse:) with Dr. Lee Min Ah.

After having double jaw surgery, my upper lip curled into my mouth. So my surgeon told me I would need a lip lift for more upper teeth show and a fuller upper lip.

I searched far and wide for the best clinic that offers a lip lift, or philtrum reduction as it's called in Korea. Most importantly, I was looking for a clinic that would offer the subnasal approach to the lip lift, not the endonasal approach which often distorts the nasal anatomy irreversibly. I settled upon Lush Plastic Surgery (https://lushps1.com/), located in Apgujeong, after asking some people on KakaoTalk, going through the before and afters, and seeing that they offered complimentary scar laser for two whole years post-surgery.

I just had the surgery today, so I will update this post with updates as my stitches are removed and the scar heals over time!

Hi colddudewinter! Thanks for sharing your experience, I hope your surgery is healing well :). If you're comfortable would you mind sharing the cost of the surgery, the recommended recovery timeline and how you communicated with the clinic (do they have an in-house translator or does the doctor speak English well)? Thank you <3

How did ur upper lip curl into your mouth? I plan on getting a lip lift and jaw surgery but i had planned to get the lip lift first, but would it not be a waste if my lip curls down again?
 
checked out K Couture's post about the lip lift – super informative. deesse plastic surgery also seems to have a good track record with lip surgeries from everything ive come across on threads and on reddit. Their B&A's look good too, there are not many on the site, but they share them on Kakao if you ask.

It's always reassuring when you see results that look natural and not like that over-the-top joker style. I guess it's a sign that they know their stuff

Never seen anyone post about deesse before. I'm going for something more conservative.
