Asked By:nueboobz in Beverly Hills, CA

I have quite full lips although from the front it doesn’t look like it. I’m 20 so I don’t want to do something as invasive as a lip lift since my nose to lip length is quite standard. Can Botox in the lip muscle cause a protruded effect and bring forth the fullness? I have a strained smile with reduced teeth visibility and a flat top lip, so I’m guessing the muscle is too strong? Could Botox help or would it lower the lip altogether causing no teeth visible when speaking or smiling?
