Lip Lift Surgery in South Florida

Enhance Your Natural Lips — Without Fillers or Overfilled Looks

Full, balanced lips are a key feature of a youthful, attractive face. While fillers are a common approach to lip enhancement, they can often look overdone or feel temporary. A lip lift offers a permanent, natural solution by lifting the upper lip for enhanced shape, definition, and proportion — without adding volume where it’s not needed.

At South Florida Plastic Surgery, we specialize in subtle, beautiful results tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy — giving you lasting lip enhancement that aligns with your natural features.

🧠 What Is a Lip Lift?

A lip lift is a minor surgical procedure that shortens the space between your nose and upper lip (known as the “philtrum”), gently pulling the lip upward to:

  • Increase visible pink lip (vermillion show)

  • Create a youthful “Cupid’s bow” appearance

  • Show more teeth when smiling

  • Improve lip balance and facial harmony

“Fillers never looked right on me. The lip lift gave me shape, not puffiness. I finally love my smile.”
Lauren B., Fort Lauderdale

✅ Benefits of a Lip Lift

  • Creates a natural-looking, fuller upper lip

  • Shortens an elongated upper lip from aging or genetics

  • Enhances the “tooth show” for a youthful smile

  • Permanent results (no ongoing injections)

  • Helps lip fillers look better (if used later)

👤 Who’s a Good Candidate?

You may be a candidate if:

  • Your upper lip appears long or covers your upper teeth when smiling

  • You want lip enhancement without the artificial volume of fillers

  • You’ve had fillers but aren’t satisfied with the look

  • You want a long-term solution for a more youthful smile

  • You’re in good health and a non-smoker

🛠️ Lip Lift Techniques We Offer

🔹 Subnasal “Bullhorn” Lip Lift (Most Common)

  • Small incision hidden beneath the nose

  • Most effective and permanent method

🔹 Modified Techniques (for scar camouflage or minimal lifts)

  • Corner Lip Lift: Elevates downturned lip corners (less common)

Dr. Nair selects the best approach based on your anatomy, aging pattern, and aesthetic goals.

💬 FAQs About Lip Lift Surgery

Will I have a visible scar?
Scarring is minimal and hidden beneath the nose. With proper care, it fades significantly in 2–3 months.

How is it different from fillers?
Fillers add volume. A lip lift reshapes and repositions your natural lip without adding puffiness or altering movement.

Can it be reversed?
No — it’s a permanent surgical result, which is why expert planning and a conservative approach are essential.
