Is the lip corner lift surgery permanent? How long can the lip corner lift surgery last?

Although the surgery to lift the corners of the mouth will not cause a rebound effect, the skin on the face will become loose as people age. At this time, the corners of the mouth that have been lifted may fall down again, so the lifted corners of the mouth may not be able to be maintained permanently.

Is lip lift surgery permanent?

In theory, it is not permanent.

Lip lift surgery is to sew the epidermis and muscles again, so it can maintain a nearly permanent lift effect at the corners of the mouth. However, as we age, the skin becomes loose and loose, and the lifted skin at the corners of the mouth will slowly sag. In addition, although the incision of smile lips is concealed by surgery, it can still become inflamed and infected if not properly cared for. At this time, the corners of the mouth may ulcerate and scars are also very likely to remain.

How long does the lip lift surgery last?

Theoretically speaking, the duration of lip corner lift surgery varies greatly due to different cosmetic procedures.

1. The surgical method of healing the wound is to suture the skin and muscles again, so as to maintain a quasi-permanent effect of upturned lips. However, with age, the skin becomes loose and loose, and the raised lips skin will gradually loosen. Another method of using surgery to create smile lips is to conceal the wound, but if the medical care is not good, inflammation may occur. At this time, the lips may ulcerate and the tissues around the lips may atrophy. In addition, due to the existence of wounds, scarring is very likely to occur.

2. The smile lips created by BOTOX injections last for a relatively short time, and the effect can only last for 6-8 months. In order to extend the duration of the smile lips, continuous injections are required. BOTOX is a biological toxin with a nerve-blocking effect. If it is injected too often, it will cause problems such as stiff facial muscles and unnatural smile lips. As the toxin is gradually metabolized, the smile lips will gradually recover naturally. After further metabolism, the smile lips will begin to disappear. Therefore, the smile lips created by this injection method will not last more than 1 year at most.
