Here at Asaadi Plastic Surgery, we aim to find new and innovative ways to help you look younger and feel more confident in your appearance. Dr. Asaadi is a pioneer in the field of plastic surgery and is constantly improving upon surgical techniques to produce better, more natural-looking results. His unique procedure—the wedge excision for the lower lip—is a unique method of plastic surgery. The excision is meant to correct the loss of tone to help those suffering from an ectropion of the lower lip.

Patients who have display an ectropion of the lower lip often have difficulty speaking, eating, smiling and feeling normal. The wedge excision can address these physical and emotional issues, thus improving your overall confidence in yourself, as well as your quality of life.

When an ectropion of the lip occurs, the inside of the bottom lip points outward, instead of inward. In order to correct this ectropion, Dr. Asaadi will create a wedge excision in the middle of the lower lip; this will turn the lip back inward to its proper position on the face.

The wedge excision is done under local anesthesia and the recovery time is minimal—lasting only a few days. The scar will fade over time and is hardly visible after three weeks, so you will enjoy a shapely lip without extensive downtime or noticeable scarring.

Dr. Asaadi and our staff welcome any questions you may have about your condition, and we can help determine if the wedge excision procedure for the lower lip can address your facial deformity. We also offer many other facial rejuvenation procedures. Contact our New Jersey office at 973.731.7000, or you may request an appointment online today!
