Some history: I had extensive orthodontic work for 7 years as a child and although my teeth came out in great shape, I believe it really messed up my lips, especially when I'm smiling. My lips are naturally thin, but my upper lip would get caught on my top set of braces, causing the skin on the inside of my lip to sag down. It also made my smile just overall very uneven. I'm thinking a lip lift will not only balance my face a little better, but also fix the unevenness of my lips.
