so today we're going to be talking about
surgery around the mouth and it's
something that we're really well versed
in and so we use terms that others might
not explain or you might not find in
other places we'll talk about a direct
excision of a nasal labial or direct
excision of a puff and you won't find
out of surgeons talking about that it's
a course that we teach to other surgeons
so a lot of what we'll talk about so
they would be terminology and you'll get
to understand what we're talking about
so we could even start with that
directive excision of a nasal labial is
this area on a face where someone might
have a hound dog look or really hang
heavily in the jowls well when you do a
face lift you can't pull things tight
enough often to get that smooth and have
things also look normal so we can do it
in conjunction with a facelift or we can
do it alone where we just remove the
extra tissue directly where it's a
problem the trade-off is a scar which is
usually not very easy to see unless
you're very close also when we're
looking at the mount we look at a couple
of different features one of them being
the corner of the mouth or the length of
the upper lip so when people age and
even sometimes younger people the
corners of the mouth this area here
turns down and looks kind of frowny or
looks aging well you can sometimes help
that with a little bit of Botox or a
little bit of filler but often you
really need to get to the point where we
surgically just remove excess tissue
right in the area and lift up the corner
so that it shows more of the lip and
actually doesn't look quite as sad the
next area is the length of the upper lip
as we talk about kind of area from the
bottom of those just to the Cupid's bow
a young mouth has an arch to it kind of
like a bow like Cupid the little love
angel we carry and that is youthful it's
attractive in the distance from the nose
down to that shouldn't be so long
that you can't see the teeth so we
generally when people are just talking
what to be able to see a couple
millimeters of the upper teeth and that
allows us to have the vision of a
youthful and attractive mouth if
somebody has too much show and that
doesn't look good and if you can't see
the teeth at all it generally looks old
so for that we do an operation where we
remove tissue just underneath the nose
that's the best place to hide it not at
the lip itself that leads to other
problems that's what we teach the other
surges when we teach these courses so we
remove the extra tissue and just trade
off a little incision and a little scar
underneath the nose for the lift of the
lip now that always gets into recovery
and cost so we've gotten to the point
that we know that probably it's going to
be better to have a lip lift or corner mouth lift or both and what am I going
to need to do to prepare myself and how
much is it going to cost well
individually either one that lip lift
to the corner mouth lift it's done just
by itself with the surgery the
anesthesia all those things is going to
come in at just over four thousand
dollars our pricing structure when
they're done together the second one is
discounted so that both together going
to come in probably adjust around six
thousand dollars now to do them in
combination it gets even more affordable
if they're being done at the same time
as other procedures such as a facelift
or a cheek-lift or eyelid surgery it
could be even done at the same time as
other surgery on the body someone who's
having a tummy tuck or something so
that's one way for things to be more
economical and taking care of it I know
that when we go somewhere to purchase
something there's a great fear that
you're going to be up sold or oversold
on what you're shopping for and you can
come in with an automatic attitude of
like I'm getting just what I came in for
and nothing else and I would be guilty
of that too I'm gonna go shopping for a
car or
suit or whatever it is and i have a set
I am NOT going to let them sell me one
more thing and I understand that and we
here don't try to be salesmen we just
try to be educators we want to educate
people about what the possibilities are
and then lets you choose it doesn't
benefit me to sell you something you
don't want because we're partners in
this for quite some time it's not like a
car where they never see you again it's
not like a suit where that person's gone
we're here and we're going to be seeing
you over and over and we want you to be
happy every time we see you so we want
to educate you and get you only what you
really want and need go ahead and hit
