A patient asked 7 years ago
About six months ago, I broke my jaw and needed a plate added to my chin. An incision was made inside my lower lip to open my chin area, however, as a result, my lips recovered in a crooked manner. I believe my lips were sew back on aligned too much to one side. One side now sags lower and my lower lip midline is very off. What kind of correctional procedure would you recommend.

Correction of Lip Asymmetry

  Hi and thank you for your question! You do have very beautiful lips and in general, a little bit of asymmetry is naturally present in almost everyone, but in case since you seem to have developed the issue following the jaw trauma, we can try to make some minor adjustments with careful injection of fillers such as Voluma, Volbella or Restylane Lyft. I hope it helps and good luck!
