Elevate Your Look

As we age, our features continue to grow, sometimes causing certain areas, such as the upper lip or ears, to appear disproportionately larger. A lip lift is a cosmetic procedure designed to enhance the appearance of the mouth by removing excess skin under the nose and elevating the top lip. This procedure creates a more youthful-looking smile by increasing lip fullness and restoring the overall balance of the facial features.

Step Right Up: Your Procedure

When you choose Dr. Morisada for your lip lift in Honolulu, you can expect a personalized experience focused on your comfort and desired outcomes:

Preparation: The process begins with a detailed consultation where Dr. Morisada will assess your facial proportions, discuss your aesthetic goals, and outline a customized treatment plan that addresses your concerns.
Surgery Day: The lip lift is typically performed under local or general anesthesia and takes 30 to 60 minutes. Dr. Morisada makes discreet incisions along the natural contours of the lip, allowing her to remove excess skin and elevate the lip.
Recovery: After the procedure, you will be monitored briefly before returning home the same day to rest and relax.
