Thank you Dr. Gary, this was so informative. I tend to be skeptical of some types of plastic surgeries because some doctors seem be playing on their patients' insecurities, but every video of yours is a pleasure. It helps users understand what might be beneficial and what should be avoided.
I got my rhinoplasty and lip lift two weeks ago, all i Can Say is it's the best thing i ever did to myself ... I wanted to do them simultaniously to heal all at once. Hopefully nothing wrong will happen lol Thanks for your videos Dr i really appreciate them.
Tks for another super informative vid, Dr. Gary! You explain your reasoning in such depth, and I’m actually starting to remember some of the names of facial muscles/ areas, nerves… 😊
Thank you for this video!! I also wanted to know which surgery should go first between bimaxillary/double jaw surgery and lip lift.. thank you once again
Hi, Dr. Gary. Thank you so much for your videos. Theoretically if a 50 ish year old female has slight jowling and some deflation in the face, would getting just a lip lift and not a facelift look strange? Thank you.
When getting an fue or other forms of the hair transplant, where is the hairline limited to? I was under the impression that the hairline can only come up to where the folds on your forehead begin (you know when you raise your eyebrows). Is this true? And what are the options for an individual with an excessive amount of skin on the forehead. Thank you in advance
Hi Dr Gary! I have a question regarding my lip lift. I have a nice result with minimal tooth show which I didn't have at all before.. I was thinking of getting filler in my nose to rise the tip which is a bit too droopy. I'm wondering if I get it done will it change the proportion of my filtrum and I'd loose the little tooth show I have? I heard getting a rhinoplasty to lift the tip of the nose pushes the upper lip down so I'm wondering it it's true with filler as well
I love your in depth analysis and honesty. I don’t hate my looks bad enough to go through surgical procedures. I am in my 50’s , and accept my looks and age. It is what it is , however , that said , my lips were always paper thin. I did hate them. I felt almost like it gave me a no teeth look. It really bugged me , so I add some filler and go to a fabulous med spa With medical professionals. They look beautiful and natural and I feel like I now show my teeth and look more “ normal “. I won’t ever look back. I have used a tiny Botox in my forehead here and there and I do micro needling. When I am with my daughters, people think I am their sister , ditto for my son and unlike j lo , I had my kids younger, so my oldest is almost 30. I eat right, and work out on the daily and always have. I take care of my skin. We aren’t all gonna be models. My nose is too big in my opinion, but that is life. Whatever. I don’t get all these massive surgical procedures for pure vanity. Happy I don’t! I have close people that do and while that is ok, it’s a rabbit hole. One thing leads to the next and now some don’t look normal .. I appreciate this drs honesty. Many lie.
Who do doctors practice on when it comes time to do a study & finding a conclusion as to what works & what doesn’t? How many lips have to be operated on to know it is safe or to know it was not safe to do a surgery a certain way?
Hi doc! Love you content so much! How can I reach you about the ads I’m getting before your videos? Idk how it generally works, should I go through you or the RUclips team? Is instagram a better platform to send you messages about that?
Ohh I saw the vid with Dr. Mascaro and the consensus was that lip lift and alarplasty can't be done. But I didn't know you could wait in-between the procedures and still do both.
Dr. Gary, I have a question regarding this lip lift, if I need to do rhinoplasty but in an asian way, which means not to remove extra bone structure but adding some (as asian, we usually don't develop very good nose bone structure), in this case, if I also need a lip lift, will the lip lift procedure weight/ drag down my new nose? (not sure if I explain it clearly).
Dr. Gary, thank you so much for your informative, thorough videos. I really appreciate them, as someone seriously considering pursuing a lip lift with you. Would it be possible to get your thoughts on permanent enhancement of both lips simultaneously? Is it possible to make both upper and lower lips fuller using permanent techniques? I feel like never really hear anything about lower lip enhancement.
Yes! I’ll make a video on this eventually. Lower lip advancement is an option, I prefer to delay it until after we see the upper lip lift results first.
very informative! I have a deviated septum and it makes it hard to breathe and I'm looking to get a rhinoplasty to aid better breathing . I was thinking if I have and open rhinoplasty to get a lip lift while doing that but I will not combine them if I can afford the rhinoplasty ill do that first then do a lip lift later
Hi doctor! You are amazing first of all. I always need to know the approaches. What about lip lift on male (bull horn one)? I have seen some bad examples that beard went into nose and come together with the hairs inside the nose. Looks horrible
Hello Dr. can I combine c section with any kind of waist narrowing procedure? I am an athlete and in very good shape that only my waist (love handle) has become one to two inches more compare to ten years ago! Thank you
Dr. Linkov, what if someone's skin makes keloid tissue? Like a surgical line on the belly ... Can they have the lift-lip surgery without getting the scar? What do you suggest?
Dr.Gary …can we go both genioplasty and lip lift at a time ??? ……I hve to do in next week so getting confused either I go first for genioplasty or lil lift nor to do both at a time …what do u think Dr Gary??? What should I hve to do ???
i just had a lip lift and cheek implants done at same time, from post-op perspective i would have preferred doing them separately from recovery standpoint - the outcome is fine cause i had a good surgeon and was a good candidate. i met with dr spiegel who you mention, met with him a few years ago. he seemed very confident, something didnt feel right. while i cant go into detail i have found some information on why many might want to look elsewhere. one should read through his patient forms very carefully and question everything as they should with any surgeon also dont make a decision for at least 7 days
Dr. Diamond wants to do a brow lift, nose job and lip lift all at once and I’m nervous about it. Thanks for this opinion. I was thinking about one at a time . 8 years ago at age 50 I wasn’t given a lip lift option and that makes me disappointed. I asked all options to be given and I didn’t even have it offered. Now I need to fix a bad brow lift and do lip lift and the nose job he didn’t do. (This was a different surgeon from Dr. Diamond).
Is functional rhinoplasty covered by insurance even if done at a cosmetic surgery practice? I am not sure how it works. I do need to fix my deviated septum though and would love to come in for a consultation.
I had submental lipo one month before the lip lift and I suspect this combination to take part in the responsibility that I have still swelling in my nose (not lips!) at 4 months out. Maybe in patients that had a rhinoplasty before and nose filler these two surgeries should not be combined as this messes with the lymphatic drainage. But it’s only an assumption. Maybe my surgeon did something else wrong. Hopefully not. Or maybe it will just resolve within the next couple of months. That’s what I put all my hope in.
What about a lip lift and a nasal tip surgery, rather than a full rhinoplasty? I only want to make my nasal tip a smaller version of itself, no changes to the rotation, length or general shape. I am worried about how much stress the close scars will be under and if the nostrils will be distorted.
Chances are that the lip lift will alter your nose's nostrils, actually, that always happens, even if it's minimal (minimal is rare). Now, imagine getting you dream nose job from top to bottom and then a lip lift procedure changes it. That would be very disappointing. In my opinion, the ideal way is to perform both procedures at the same time to manipulaye and create an overall balanced result *here and there* according to what the patient desires, especially if the patient is looking to improve his/her nostrils size and shape. But it takes next level skills to do.
Do you perform philtropexys? I've only found one doctor in the US that does this procedure for people who cant commit to a full on lip lift. The focus is on lifting the cupids bow minimally and creating philtral columns for those with flat philtrums. Im at 15mm with a flat philtrum and I'd honestly only want 3mm difference and deeper grooves.
Just a thought. Would it be that much better to do a lip lift first then the alarplasty? If the nostril were pulled down at all from the lip lift, perhaps that can be corrected during the alarplasty?
@@drgarylinkov Oh I thought you said not to do them at the same time. I meant instead of either or as the first surgery, to do the lip lift first, then go back and do the alarplasty.
Dear Dr. Linkov, can you get the same result with a lip flip that you would see from a lip lift, except the first is temporary and the ladder is permanent?
Hello doctor , I wanted to know if upper lip lift surgery improves smiling because whenever I smile only a small portion of my upper teeth is visible which doesn't look good at all.
@@drgarylinkov Can the upper lip be lifted by doing a nose lift ?( I don't want to my upper lip to look bigger by doing a lip lift). My columnella is drooping and my upper lip doesn't move up enough when I talk and smile which makes me look weird. I need to fix this asap. Thanks
My Dr said to get the lip lift first & that he wouldn’t perform the rhinoplasty until 6 months later. My lip lift scar has this “webbing” thing I believe you’re talking about. My Dr. was named one of the top 10 facial plastic surgeons in Southern California. Why would this happen to me & why would he say that to me?! I’m baffled 😓 Like I said in your last vid I just commented on. Really wish I chose you

I adore the look of a lip lift. I am a youthful 48 and am edging toward wanting a facelift. I don’t have many wrinkles because I chose my face as my lifelong project (not my butt) :) What is a very effective but lower invasive procedure I can have to lift things?
I desperately need an eyebrow lift, hairline transplant, rhinoplasty, and a lip lift but I'm perpetually poor no matter how much I work and will never be able to afford it sooooooo yeah!
Dr. Gary being conservative. That’s good.
That before, and after photo at 2:11 is amazing, fantastic work.
🙏
So interesting to hear how things can work together. Thanks for a a very informative video!
Dr. Gary I just want to say, I really appreciate the work you do. I don't think I'll be getting a lip lift anytime soon but you do beautiful work.
Had been wandering about the hair transplant + lip lift combo for a while, thanks for explaining.
Thank you Dr. Gary, this was so informative. I tend to be skeptical of some types of plastic surgeries because some doctors seem be playing on their patients' insecurities, but every video of yours is a pleasure. It helps users understand what might be beneficial and what should be avoided.
That’s a perfect description of Dr. Gary! Well said!
Dr.Gary, you explain so well ! Thank you so much. It seems to be so much easier to decide after listening to your advise

How is your healing going? Is the scar webbing that the doctor spoke of not something you are struggling with?
What was the cost for both
You are amazing! Luv these vids

Aging for sure is a scary thing...If I ever need a surgery I would love to get that done by you Dr. Gary :)
It is scary because many people concentrate on beauty from outside, but when you are older, there are other things, that makes you happy.
Me too!!

I have done philtrum sculpting work before, but only in combination with a lip lift, as you need the access to make true changes to the philtrum.
I was checking out your website. Can you please explain why the price range is so large? What factors would significantly increase the cost?
Revision work is a big one
Do you do rhinoplasties under local anesthesia? Some places like dubai do that. Also can you share the price range for a closed rhinoplasty?
I’m not sure why you would want that that sounds like a horrid experience lol but he doesn’t do nose jobs just lip lift and hair transplants

Would you ever do a lip lift for someone who has only 4-5cm above the lip or is that just too little of a space?
4-5mm? That is way too short to do surgery on.
are you looking for no space at all? just put the lip at the base of the nose lol

I bet most people don't want filler after having a lip lift. Definitely best to drive the procedures apart for that reason alone.
Why would a person need a lip lift? How does it help with an aging face?
The philtrum elongates over time. A lip lift shortens it.
