Am I a candidate for lip lift? (photos)

April 24, 2019

I would really like a lip lift but have some tooth show and somewhat gummy smile. I included pictures of my smile and my gummy smile that appears when I laugh or am super happy (basically the muscles want to pull my lip up farther and my eyes get crinkly). Measurement to top of Cupid’s bow is 12mm, bottom of Cupid’s bow is 15-17mm(not sure if I’m measuring correctly so I included a pic with a clear ruler). My nose is very crooked, would this need to be corrected before lip lift?
