I want to get rid of my cupid's bow without lip fillers, is it possible? (Photo)

Thrifty1774Jul 18, 2019

Specially I want to have the round look of no Cupid’s bow because my lips have a very deep one. I am fine with the size of my lips so I don’t want to adjust it with fillers that I would need to replace after a while and spend more money I just want to get rid of the Cupid’s bow dip in the top lip. Is that possible?

I have not seen any documented cases of keloids on the upper lip. The central face is actually a rare place to see keloids in general. That being said, unfavorable scarring is always a risk of a lip lift. Hope that helps. Gary Linkov, MD Lip Specialist Manhattan

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

A small amount of filler into the corners is safe and should address your concerns. I would advise against a corner lift surgery and against an upper lip lift for your concern.
