A patient asked 7 years ago
I’ve always hated my lips, and it gets so bad that I won’t leave my house for days. They’re small and it feels like they’re lopsided - one side goes over my teeth when I smile, and when they’re resting regularly they look dumpy and awful. I’m only 22. Can this be fixed with injectable fillers? I just want even, fuller looking lips.

Treatments for Lips

  Hi and thank you for your question! You do have beautiful lips and while we sure can add more volume or correct some asymmetry with fillers, any further adjustments and enhancements should be done in small and conservative steps. It is important to maintain right proportion with other facial features and your pictures only show the lip areas, so it is very important to have a detailed consultation with an experienced cosmetic doctor who can evaluate your whole face and provide you with recommendations for the best look. I hope it helps and good luck!
