Case Details

Surgeon: Achih H. Chen, MD, FACS

When the lips are slightly parted in the idealized female lip and mouth area, the upper teeth will be slightly visible. This is called incisor show. At times, because of genetics, the area of skin between the nose and the upper lip is too long. As a result, there is little or no visible upper teeth when the lips are slightly parted. Instead, the lower teeth may be visible. This was the concern of the patient in the photos. After consulting with Evans and Augusta, GA - based Facial Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Achih H. Chen, she underwent th Lip Lift procedure. In the Lip Lift, the area of skin between the nose and the lip is shortened (see red arrows in Views 1 and 2). The result is the red lip is lifted upward, creating a better balance between the white and red lip so that there is upper teeth show when the lips are at rest and slightly parted. Dr. Chen designs the procedure to hide the incisions at the base of the nose and slightly into the nostrils so that they are very difficult to see once complete healing has occurred.
