LoveLift - Deep Plane Lip Lift
%20(1).webp)
What is a LoveLift® Deep Plane Lip Lift?
As we age, the upper lip gradually lengthens, loses definition, and may begin to hide the upper teeth when smiling. Many patients turn to fillers hoping to restore youthfulness, only to discover that additional volume cannot fully correct changes in lip position and proportion.
The LoveLift® Deep Plane Lip Lift was developed by Dr. Cameron Chesnut to restore youthful lip anatomy through precise repositioning rather than repeated filling. The procedure shortens the distance between the nose and upper lip, increases visible lip height, improves smile aesthetics, and restores facial harmony while preserving natural expression.
Unlike fillers that add volume beneath the skin, the LoveLift® repositions the lip itself, allowing your natural anatomy to create a fuller, more youthful appearance.
Patients commonly seek the LoveLift® to improve:
- A long upper lip
- Loss of upper tooth show
- Thin or flattened lips
- Downturned lip corners
- Lip filler fatigue
- Lip asymmetry
- Loss of facial balance

Lip Lift FAQs
What is a lip lift?
A lip lift is a surgical procedure that improves the position and proportions of the upper lip by shortening the distance between the nose and lip. This creates greater upper lip visibility, improved tooth show, and a more youthful smile.
How is a lip lift different from lip filler?
Lip filler adds volume beneath the skin. A lip lift repositions the lip itself.
While fillers can make lips appear larger, they cannot effectively shorten a long upper lip or improve tooth show. The LoveLift® addresses the underlying anatomy rather than simply adding volume.
Will a lip lift make my lips look bigger?
Most patients notice that their lips appear fuller after surgery, but this fullness comes from improved lip position and visibility rather than added volume.
The result is often more natural than repeatedly increasing filler.
Am I a candidate for a lip lift if I've had fillers?
Yes. Many LoveLift® patients have previously received fillers. In some cases, filler migration or accumulation may actually be one of the reasons patients pursue surgery. Carly and Tara both sought correction after filler-related concerns developed over time.
Can a lip lift fix migrated filler?
In many cases, yes. Dr. Chesnut frequently evaluates patients who have experienced filler migration, lip heaviness, or changes in lip shape after years of filler use. Surgical planning may include filler correction or manual filler removal when appropriate.
Will a lip lift improve my smile?
Yes. Many patients notice improved upper tooth show, better lip balance, and a brighter smile after surgery. These changes often contribute significantly to a more youthful appearance.
What is a corner lip lift?
A corner lip lift is a refinement procedure that elevates downturned mouth corners and creates a more positive resting facial expression.
It is often performed alongside the LoveLift® when additional smile refinement is desired.
How long does a lip lift last?
Unlike fillers, which gradually dissolve, a lip lift creates structural changes that are designed to be long-lasting.
Patients continue aging naturally, but the improvements achieved through surgery remain.
What is recovery like after a lip lift?
Most patients experience swelling and mild tenderness during the first week.
The majority of visible healing occurs over several weeks, with ongoing refinement continuing over the following months as tissues soften and mature.
Why do patients travel to Coeur d'Alene for the LoveLift®?
Patients travel from across the country seeking Dr. Cameron Chesnut's preservation-focused approach to lip rejuvenation.
Rather than simply increasing lip size, the LoveLift® focuses on restoring natural proportions, correcting filler-related issues when necessary, and creating results that look elegant, balanced, and authentically natural.
