Lip Lift & Enhancement in Upland, CA

A Better Frame For a Dazzling Smile

Lip lift and enhancement procedures are aimed at enhancing the shape, fullness, and balance of the lips, addressing aesthetic concerns, and improving overall facial harmony. These surgeries are particularly beneficial for individuals looking to augment thin or asymmetrical lips, rejuvenate lost volume due to aging, or refine lip contours for a more defined appearance. At Inland Institute Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, we specialize in performing these procedures with a focus on achieving natural-looking results that complement each patient's facial features.

Dr. Gilbert, renowned for his expertise in oral and maxillofacial surgery, employs advanced techniques tailored to the specific needs and desires of the patient. Whether through a lip lift procedure to shorten the distance between the nose and upper lip (philtrum), or the use of lip fillers and implants to enhance lip volume, our goal is to enhance both the aesthetic appeal and self-confidence of our patients. For those considering transformative changes to their lips, we invite you to contact our office to learn more about our lip lift and enhancement options and how we can help you achieve your desired cosmetic goals.

How Does a Lip Lift or Lip Enhancement Work?

This cosmetic surgery procedure begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient's lip anatomy and cosmetic goals at Inland Institute Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery. Dr. Gilbert, our experienced oral and maxillofacial surgeon, customizes each treatment plan to achieve natural and harmonious results that complement the patient's facial features.

On the day of the cosmetic procedure, local anesthesia is administered to ensure comfort. Once the anesthesia takes effect, precise incisions are made either at the base of the nose for a lip lift or along the lip border for enhancement procedures. These incisions allow for reshaping and adjusting the lip tissues to enhance volume, contour, and symmetry.

Depending on the specific lip augmentation chosen, such as shortening the distance between the nose and upper lip (philtrum) in a lip lift or using lip fillers and implants for enhancement, the procedure aims to achieve desired aesthetic goals. Dr. Gilbert utilizes advanced surgical techniques to minimize scarring and maximize aesthetic outcomes.

Following the surgical procedure, patients can expect mild swelling and discomfort, which can be managed with medications. Post-operative care instructions, including dietary restrictions and wound care, are provided to facilitate proper healing and optimize results. At Inland Institute Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, our commitment is to deliver exceptional care and transformative outcomes for patients seeking to enhance the appearance and balance of their lips.
