How to get rid of dent under bottom lip? (Photo)

snaplolJan 22, 2015

I have a "dent" under my bottom lip which I hate. It's not very noticeable from the front, but from the profile I feel it really stands out. I'm looking for a PERMANENT way to get this dent filled in. Is this possible? I've included a picture of the problem, and an edited version to demonstrate what I'd like to achieve.
