I would want my upper lip to be more triangle. When I’m pulling my lip up arpund my nose it’s round but when I’m pulling it up just above my lip it’s triangle. Should I go for fillers or a lip lift (which one)?

Answer: Lip Asymmetry/plump — Juvederm, Restylane, Belotero, Fat, Lip Lift; emeragcosmetics lip essentials + MTS roller i avoid lip lifts until truly needed, they just dont look that good. I would use daily hydration and plumping (see emeragecosmetics lip essentials kit). everyone can do a little filler when done well really gives nice hydration and plumping. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Lip augmentation Dear Veronicaxx, I perform a lot of lip injections with fillers such as juvederm and it works great. Many times I need to put more in one side than the other to attempt to even out the vermillion border (The red line of the lip). This helps provide more symmetry at times.For patients looking for a more long lasting result, I recommend fat grafting. That is, using your own bodies fat to make your lips naturally look more shapely. The bonus is that the results last many many years. In general, I avoid using permanent prosthesis because I find that the lips are such dynamic and sensitive structures, the end result is not natural.
