Under the premise of regular operation, mouth corner raising surgery generally leaves few scars. Everyone must take good postoperative care after this surgery, otherwise scars will be left on the face and will be harmful to the future. The impact will be very large.

Will the lip corner lift surgery leave scars?

It depends on the individual’s constitution and the doctor’s surgical skills. Generally, there will be no scars.

Girls who love to smile will not have bad luck~ Some people are born to make people feel very friendly, and they always look like they are smiling, with the corners of their mouths always raised. But some people are born with downward-facing corners of their mouths, giving them a sad look, which always makes people feel as if someone owes them money. People with downward-facing corners of their mouths make people not want to get close to them, as if they have a bitter melon face. People with naturally downward-facing corners of the mouth can use surgery to change their bald face. When they are expressionless, they don’t have to worry about looking unhappy. They can use surgery to raise the corners of the mouth to make them look more relaxed. Being easy to get close to will make interpersonal interactions smoother. I believe that mouth corner raising surgery can bring different good luck to those with “bitter melon face”.

Where are the incisions for lip corner lift surgery?

Mouth corner lift surgery is divided into internal and external methods.

1. The external incision method requires making a ">"-shaped incision at the junction of the red and white lips above and below the corner of the mouth, and removing an appropriate amount of skin above the corner of the mouth. It is mainly suitable for sagging corners of the mouth where the skin on the outside of the upper lip is relatively loose, compared with the inside. The incision effect is more obvious, but slight incision scar marks may be left at the corners of the mouth.

2. Endotomy method makes an incision on the mucosal surface of the mouth corner, leaving no trace at the mouth corner, but the lifting effect is relatively slight. Both endo- and external incision methods require an external incision of about 12.5px in length at the base of the nose on both sides, but the scar is usually not obvious after healing.

The process of lip corner lifting surgery

First, the doctor will measure the thickness of the lips and then simulate the shape of the lips after surgery.

Next, during the operation, the triangular-shaped skin on both sides of the lips, that is, the excess mucosa and submucosal tissue, needs to be cut away.

Finally, weaken the strength of the muscles that pull the corners of the mouth downward, and re-adjust the movement direction of the muscles on both sides of the mouth to achieve the effect of raising the corners of the mouth.
