What is a Lip Lift

Lip Lift Dr. Andrew Jacono is a double board certified facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon who specializes procedures of the face. View before and after lip lift patient photos in this video.

Lip Lift Surgery
Lip Lift surgery

Lip lift surgery is a lip augmentation procedure that can provide long-term results and avoid the need for lip implants and lip injections. Dr. Jacono is one of the Best New York City Plastic Surgeon specializing in natural lip lift before and after, using both the bullhorn lip lift and Italian lip lift techniques. According to the American Academy of Facial and Reconstructive Surgery, lip augmentation was one of the most common facial plastic procedures performed in 2014. As we age, our lips lose their fullness, which makes them appear older. Lips descend because of loss of support. This distance between the tip of the nose and the upper lip gets longer over time as well. Sometimes the lip becomes so long that it hangs over the teeth, and the face can take on an almost “ape-like” appearance. Others are born with naturally thin lips with long white lips and thin red lips. Whether young or old, lip lift surgery creates permanent results and avoids the need for excessive lip augmentation costs with repeat lip filler injections.

Different Types of Lip Lifts

Bullhorn (Subnasal) Lip Lift. The lip lift procedure targets only the upper lip, elevating it to reveal a broader smile. This procedure exposes more of the top teeth at rest that tends to be covered as we age. It increases both the volume of the lip and for those with very thin lips, it can bring it to a better aesthetic proportion with the lower lip. During this procedure, an incision just beneath your nose, the shape of a bull’s horn. A tiny strip of skin and tissue is removed, the muscle tightened, and the upper lip is raised to its new position. With this lip lift, your scar is virtually undetectable. The procedure takes about 45 minutes and the recovery time is quick about 5 to 7 days. Lip lift cost can be less than other lip surgery because it can be done under local anesthesia so it avoids additional fees required for an anesthesiologist.

Bullhorn Lip Lift Review of Procedure (Subnasal) The incision placed is hidden in the natural curves under the nose. This procedure can be customized to elevate the central lip or corners of the lip more.

Gull Wing Lip Lift. Other lip lift types vary based on where the incision is placed. For example, a Gull Wing Lift removes a strip of skin above the border of your upper lip. The cut-out is M-shaped to advance the border of your lip. The incision is made where the pink part of your lip meets the skin of your top lip. This lip lift leaves a visible scar and, as a result, is not as desirable.

Italian Lip Lift. The Italian lip lift consists of two separate incisions beneath each nostril. This has a smaller incision than the bullhorn lip lift. This is usually used when a more subtle lift is necessary, for lips that are not as long. Skin is removed and the right and then the left lip are each separately lifted by closing the wound and reducing the distance between the lip and nose.

Corner Lip Lift. Corner lip lifts are for people that have a sad look because the outer corners of their lips turn down. The incisions are made on the exact edge of the outer lips. A small triangular area of skin at the corner of the mouth is removed so that the lips turn up slightly in a more youthful manner. The corner of the mouth lift provides an alternative to patients who desire a more permanent solution to the management of deep oral commissure grooves (grooves at the corner of the mouth that drift down towards the chin, often referred to as a drool groove). If the grooves are deep and prominent, surgery may not provide 100 percent correction, but there is usually major improvement.

Mission Statement

Doctor Jacono’s desire to become a facial plastic surgeon was solidified in grade school. There was a girl on his school bus route who was born with a cleft lip and palate deformity. Unfortunately, whenever she spoke, air and words escaped through her nose. Kids teased her and were cruel, and nobody would sit next to her on the bus, so he decided to sit with her. One day, the girl had plastic surgery and returned to school with her face repaired. Suddenly, classmates saw her face instead of her deformity and immediately treated her normally. It was at that moment that Doctor Jacono knew he wanted to fix people’s faces and change their lives. This is why he has gone on over twenty plastic surgery missions to poor countries around the world and provided free cleft lip and surgery for birth defects to over 500 children.

Because of this experience in his childhood, Doctor Jacono understands that one of our basic needs as human beings is to feel confident about our appearance. It’s is Doctor Jacono’s passion to help his patients achieve their facial aesthetic goals, creating natural appearing results to either enhance their beauty and proportion or rejuvenate their aging appearance. He is a world-renowned leader in the field of facial plastic surgery and only performs surgery on the face, not the body. He has innovated many facelift, eyelid lift, and rhinoplasty surgical techniques, publishing in leading peer reviewed literature and lecturing at plastic surgery conferences all over the world. He is committed to sharing what he has learned teaching surgeons from around the world.

His approach is to maintain your uniqueness and facial identity; it is still you just better. To do this he uses a customized, bespoke approach to each patient employing the most minimally invasive, innovative, and cutting-edge technology. Doctor Jacono has never performed the same procedure on any two of the thousands of patients he has treated. He is committed to providing his surgical expertise in a caring, supportive environment with a professional staff that has you as their focus and concern.
