In recent years, the staghorn (bullhorn) lip lift has grown in popularity, and for good reason. Over time, the upper lip naturally elongates, which can affect facial proportions and reduce the amount of teeth that show when smiling. The aging lip may also lose volume, making the mouth appear thinner or less youthful.
A lip lift directly addresses these changes, restoring balance and enhancing the natural beauty of the lips.
How a Staghorn Lip Lift Works
- A discreet incision is made in a “staghorn” shape just beneath the base of the nose.
- A small strip of skin is removed, and the incision is carefully closed.
- This shortens the upper lip, increases teeth show when smiling, and creates the appearance of greater lip volume.
Benefits of a Lip Lift
- Shortens an elongated upper lip
- Restores youthful facial proportions
- Enhances the smile by showing more teeth
- Improves the appearance of lip volume without fillers
