I used to have an underbite, but several years ago I had surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion and braces to correct it. Now my upper lip is much thinner than my lower lip, my lips don't touch when resting, and my upper lip basically disappears in my side profile. What can I do to correct these issues? My primary concern is my lip incompetence, but ideally would like to fix all of these issues with my upper lip.
Answer: Botox and Filler There are a few treatment options you can try to make your upper lip appear more voluminous. The first option would be to add volume to your lips with Lip Filler. Lip filler subtly plumps and defines thin lips for fuller, more youthful lips and helps to correct asymmetrical lips for an even, beautiful smile. A second option would be a Botox "Lip Flip". The Botox lip flip is an alternative lip enhancement treatment that provides a fuller, plumper, and more natural-appearing upper lip. This treatment involves the precise placement of Botox to temporarily relax the muscle above the upper lip, causing it to roll slightly upward and appear more voluminous and defined.

Answer: Nothing to worry about Your lips are fine. You should show upper teeth at rest, as you do. If you want fuller upper lips we can do an augmentation and if you want the sides up more we can do a corner lip lift.
