title: An approach to the senile upper lip.
abstract: Senile changes in the upper lip produce not only alterations in the length and shape of the vermilion border but also elongation of the skin area and vertical wrinkles. Correction of these changes can be obtained by means of the surgical technique described in this paper. The surgical technique must be exact and performed patiently. The complications are temporary and not serious. The results are satisfactory.
