Cheongdam Plastic Surgery: Natural Lip Augmentation and Lip Corner Lift Surgery

Cheongdam Plastic Surgery: Natural Lip Augmentation and Lip Corner Lift Surgery

Hello.

I am Song Sang-hoon, the chief director of Cheongdam Plastic Surgery Golden Diamant.

Cheongdam Plastic Surgery: Natural Lip Augmentation and Lip Corner Lift Surgery

Among the features of the face, the corners of the mouth in particular,

are perhaps the area where emotions are most easily revealed.

Even without speaking or smiling,

the curve of the mouth and the balance of the lip corners alone

can convey my feelings to others.

However, due to congenital structure or shape of the mouth, or as a result of aging,

many individuals with downturned lip corners


visit our clinic with significant complexes due to looking tired or sad even with a neutral expression.

For those with such concerns,

today, I will explain in detail about

lip corner lift surgery, which creates a good impression,

how it is performed,

and what changes can be achieved at Cheongdam Plastic Surgery.

Lip corner lift surgery at Cheongdam Plastic Surgery Golden Diamant

begins with a consultation focusing on perioral surgery with a specialist who has over 20 years of experience.

We not only analyze the overall facial image but also the muscles that make up the mouth area,

identifying factors causing asymmetry or

factors causing the mouth to droop,


then eliminating the causative factors and designing the shape of the mouth.

At Cheongdam Plastic Surgery,

among the clients who visit us for lip corner lift surgery,

we recommend surgery in the following cases:

If the horizontal length of the lips is short, making the image appear petty or timid.

If there is left-right asymmetry in the lips and perioral muscles, making the asymmetry prominent when smiling.

If there is a complex about a straight mouth line or downturned lip corners when expressionless or smiling.

If the lip corners have drooped due to natural aging.

If one works in a service or sales profession that requires a bright impression.

Lip corner lift surgery at Cheongdam Plastic Surgery

is performed using our clinic's precise surgical method.


According to a personalized design,

a small triangular piece of skin around the lip corners is excised,

the strength of the muscles that pull down the left and right lip corners is appropriately weakened,
and the direction of the muscles that move the lip corners is delicately repositioned.

Through this surgery, downturned or asymmetrical lip corners

are lifted upwards and outwards,


and finished with Golden Diamant's unique micro-suturing technique,

completing a natural smile.

In particular, I will explain the advantages that only Cheongdam Plastic Surgery's

‘lip corner lift surgery’ possesses.

First, by designing the individual's perioral structure,

after sufficient consultation with the client,

we perform not only lip corner lift surgery but also partial lateral lift surgery.

If one has triangular lips with a severe lip angle or very thin upper lips,

performing only lip corner lift surgery alone

can result in an unnatural ‘Joker’s mouth’ appearance.


To prevent this, we design a naturally continuous

partial lateral lift (or lateral lift in some cases) together,

and perform natural perioral surgery.

Second, due to the difference in skin length after skin excision in lip corner lift surgery,

existing perioral wrinkles may become more prominent or indentations may occur.

To minimize this, in addition to our clinic's unique wrinkle-preventing incision,

we implant artificial or autologous dermis in the lower outer area

to prevent perioral wrinkles, a side effect of lip corner lift surgery, as much as possible.

Lip corner lift surgery, by correcting downturned lip corners,
is a procedure that can help soften the impression and create a more confident smile.

However,

since lip corner surgery cannot be the same solution for all cases,

it is crucial to accurately understand the current perioral structure and problems through a direct consultation with a specialist who has performed lip surgery for a long time.

When the specialist's accurate diagnosis and the patient's needs are in harmony,

it can lead to a natural smile that is not overdone.


If you have any further questions about lip corner lift surgery at Cheongdam Plastic Surgery,

please call our clinic.

We will kindly assist you with consultation and guidance.

Thank you.
