NOMES™ means “No Mes”: no surgical scalpel is used.
Without skin incisions, absorbable threads adjust the direction of the muscles that pull the mouth corners down, while filler refines lip volume and contours.
NOMES™ is Lauren’s signature lip corner program, for which a trademark application has been filed (No. 41-2016-0026763).
It aims to reduce concerns about visible scars and create a softer appearance around the mouth.

PROBLEM
Mouth corners look droopy for different reasons in each person.
We set the direction of correction by looking at muscle strength, lip volume and left-right differences together.
CASE 01
Drooping mouth corners
You are often told you look angry or tired when your face is at rest
CASE 02
Mouth-corner muscle pull
The downward pull on the mouth corners is strong, so they don't lift well even when you smile
CASE 03
Thin lip line
Low lip volume makes the mouth-corner line look indistinct
CASE 04
Left-right asymmetry
Only one corner lifts when you smile, or the two sides sit at different heights

Dr. Jihyung Lee looks at mouth corners
together with expression.
Your mouth corners move whenever you speak or smile.
We therefore consider more than their angle at rest.
We assess smile movement, lip volume and overall facial proportions, then correct only what is needed.
This approach is where NOMES™ Lip Corner Lift began.
LAUREN’S SOLUTIONThe NOMES™ Lip Corner Lift Treatment Process
01Consultation and mouth-area assessment
We first listen to your concerns about your mouth corners and the impression you want. We check mouth-corner angle, left-right differences and lip volume at rest and when smiling.
02Lip corner design
We design the mouth-corner angle and lip line to suit your facial proportions. Thread positions and the filler area are marked on your face and confirmed together.
03Non-incisional lip corner correction
Absorbable threads are placed without skin incisions to reposition the direction of the muscles pulling the mouth corners down and secure them upward. Treatment focuses on four points around the lips.
- Non-incisional
- Absorbable threads
- 4-point muscle correction
04Personalized filler design
During treatment, we check the shape together in a mirror while refining lip volume and the mouth-corner line. The amount is set according to your facial proportions and the degree you want.
- Real-time checking
- 1:1 volume adjustment
05Follow-up
We check swelling and the shape of the mouth corners after treatment. If needed, further correction or filler touch-ups are discussed.
WHY NO MESWe start by correcting the force
that pulls the mouth corners down.
Drooping mouth corners are influenced by the downward pull of the muscles around the lips. NOMES™ locates four mouth-corner muscle points on the inner side around the lips, corrects their direction, and refines the lip line with filler.

Non-incisional
No skin incision means fewer concerns about visible scars.

Muscle direction correction
Realigns the direction of pull on the mouth corners at four points around the lips.

Return to daily life
Recovery tends to be relatively short compared with methods that incise inside the mouth.

Personalized volume
Filler is added only as much as needed, checked together during treatment.

| About 3–5 days | Recovery | Relatively short |
| Correction with a larger degree of change | Lip corner change | Natural, gentle correction |
