Abstract

Background: The subnasal lip lift has emerged as a popular intervention for correcting an elongated upper lip, although postoperative scarring remains a topic of concern. Various techniques have been discussed in the literature, with the Tri-Lift suspension technique highlighted in this study offering to reduce such complications and to assess the impact of modification in the deep plane subnasal lip lift, which includes triple suspension sutures, on nasal and labial aesthetic parameters.

Results: A total of 193 female patients (mean age: 28 years) underwent the Tri-Lift suspension technique, while 50 female patients (mean age: 32.48 years) underwent the traditional lip lift (bullhorn technique). In the Tri-Lift group, 78.7% reported "very much improvement," 20.2% "much improvement," and 1% "no change," compared to 43% "very much improvement," 28.6% "much improvement," 21.4% "improved," and 7% "no change" in the traditional lip lift group. Quantitative measurements of philtral length, vermilion height, and dental show recorded preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively showed significant improvements in both groups. However, the Tri-Lift suspension technique achieved higher satisfaction rates, fewer adverse outcomes, and statistically significant differences in satisfaction levels (P < 0.05) compared with the traditional lip lift.

Conclusions: The Tri-Lift suspension technique offers a solution to the common issue of scarring in subnasal lip lifts, enhancing both nasal and lip aesthetics. It presents a promising alternative to the traditional method, providing higher patient satisfaction and better aesthetic outcomes with reduced scarring.

Tri-Lift悬吊技术:一种改良的深平面唇提术,以增强美学效果——我个人的方法。
背景:鼻下唇提升术已成为矫正上唇拉长的一种流行的干预措施,尽管术后疤痕仍然是一个值得关注的话题。文献中已经讨论了各种技术,本研究中强调的Tri-Lift悬吊技术提供了减少此类并发症的方法,并评估了在深平面鼻下唇提术中修改的影响,包括三重悬吊缝合,对鼻和唇部美学参数的影响。结果:女性患者共193例(平均年龄28岁)采用Tri-Lift悬吊术,女性患者50例(平均年龄32.48岁)采用传统提唇术。在Tri-Lift组中,78.7%的人报告“非常改善”,20.2%的人报告“非常改善”,1%的人报告“没有变化”,而在传统的提唇组中,43%的人报告“非常改善”,28.6%的人报告“非常改善”,21.4%的人报告“改善”,7%的人报告“没有变化”。术前和术后6个月记录的中心长度、朱砂高度和牙显的定量测量显示,两组患者均有显著改善。然而,Tri-Lift悬吊技术获得了更高的满意率,更少的不良后果,并且在满意度水平上有统计学上的显著差异(P结论:Tri-Lift悬吊技术解决了鼻下唇提升术中常见的疤痕问题,提高了鼻和唇的美观性。它提供了一种有希望的替代传统方法,提供更高的患者满意度和更好的美学结果,减少疤痕。
