Want to reduce my lower protruding lips. Any suggestions?

Question

Hi...I have biggish teeth and my upper lip is ok but the lower one seems disproportionately large and prominent. Should I go for lip reduction....I also don't want to end up with lips that look sucked in.....plzz help!

Robert M. Tornambe, MD · Answer

While physical exam is optimal, your photos demonstrate classic lip hypertrophy, amenable to lip reduction surgery. This is accomplished under local anesthesia, in the office and takes about one hour. Recovery takes about a week for swelling to dissipate and patient satisfaction is high. Seek out a board certified plastic surgeon with lots of experience with lip reduction surgery, good luck!
