Dr. George C. Yang
This patient desired larger more shapely lips. She has always had thinner lips, even when she was younger. I explained to her that if I tried to create an Angelina Jolie-type full lips on her that it would look very obvious and possibly look inappropriately large on her.

She came in for a consultation for a mini-facelift and showed me how by lifting her cheeks, her smile lines disappeared. I explained to her that facelifts in general do not do much for smile lines.
