Would I Have to Go About Fillers+botox to Achieve This Look? (photo)

I have two pictures of myself (one actual pic, and one edited pic). In the first picture you can see that my cupids bow is not defined and I have long dark lines at the corners of my lips. There is also volume lacking in the middle of my lower lip (makes lips look square). How could this be fixed? Could botox be used around the upper sides of the lips to stop them from riding up? Also, would fillers give me that heart shape face? I have heard botox can also be used for jaw slimming.

Getting the look you want with fillers and Botox

Lip augmentation is easily handled with Juvederm (or the forthcoming Belotero). Cheek enhancement can be accomplished with a robust filler like Radiesse - or Perlane - or with Sculptra. You need to remember that sometimes adding volume to one area could lead to the need for added volume in another area so your facial contours "flow" properly. (Example: Too much "cheek" could make your face seem boxy. Subtle enhancement is always preferred) I would not... more

Fillers and Botox are your Answers

Your questions are good ones and you have intuitively figured out that neuromodulators (Botox, Dysport, or Xeomin) and fillers (Restylane, Juviderm, Radiesse, and Perlane) can be used to help "sculpt" the face.Depending on where they are placed in the forehead, neuromodulators can be be used to either drop or lift the eyebrows. Fillers can the be used to add volume to areas of need, and work well to create symmetry, support the lower lids, and add definition and volume to the... more

Thanks for the posted photos but such a detailed site specific inquiry can only really be addressed in an in person consult NOT over the internet. Seek a few in person evaluations and bring these photos with you.
