A well-executed lip lift produces results that are immediately noticed but rarely identified — the face simply looks more youthful, more rested, and more photogenic, without anyone being able to point to exactly what changed. For Newport Beach patients considering lip lift surgery, the choice of plastic surgeon meaningfully shapes whether the result reads as refined and natural or surgical and overdone. Dr. John Anastasatos at Los Angeles Plastic Surgery offers lip lift and lip augmentation surgery to Newport Beach patients at his Beverly Hills office — within easy reach of Orange County.

Dr. Anastasatos brings deep academic credentials to lip lift surgery for Newport Beach patients. He has presented at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center Grand Rounds on advanced surgical techniques — teaching credentials at one of the leading medical institutions in Southern California. With over two decades of facial surgical expertise in Beverly Hills since 2007, he is board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS), a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) and American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS), and named by The Luxe Insider as one of the Top 10 Plastic Surgeons in the World — recognition that signals the level of refined aesthetic outcome Newport Beach patients are seeking when they choose lip lift surgery.

Lip Enhancement Surgery Options

There are many different types of lip lifts and enhancements that can be achieved through surgery. The general lip lift surgically shortens the upper lip, removing excess skin between the nose and upper lift. The lift reveals more of the pink lip skin, or vermillion, and flips the lip slightly outward for more perceived volume. This can also reveal more of the upper teeth for a more youthful smile and mouth expression.

A lip lift can be completed using a small incision at the base of the nose. This gives access to the upper lip to lift it up a few millimeters to create a fuller, shorter upper lip by removing a small amount of skin and tissue. An upper lip lift can also include surgical alterations to the Cupid’s bow or shape of the outline of the lip. Once the incision heals, the scar is almost invisible as it is hidden under the nose.

If there is a pronounced downturn at the corner of the mouth, a corner lip lift can be performed. This addresses a permanent grimace or frown to achieve a more pleasant relaxed lip position. The corner lip lift can be performed with an upper lip lift or as a separate procedure.

Lip Enhancement and Rejuvenation Near Newport Beach

A small change to the lips can have a dramatic impact on the overall appearance of the mouth and face. Shortening the space between the upper lip and nose with a slight flip to reveal a fuller, thicker top lip creates a more youthful, sensuous mouth. To add even more volume, facial fillers or a fat transfer can be used. Fillers can also smooth away small lines and wrinkles around the mouth. Los Angeles Plastic Surgery offer patients coming from Newport Beach surgical and non-surgical cosmetic lip treatments.
