How can I fix my uneven lips? (photos)

Question

My jaw was slated when I was younger but after a year and a half using braces, my teeth and jaw are at a normal position but my lip aren't. Do I need plastic surgery or something?

Robert M. Tornambe, MD · Answer

Marktony        It appears from your photos that the asymmetry is minor.  Fillers such as Juvederm Ultra plus may be all you need. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to assist with your decision. Good luck!

Jeffrey H. Spiegel, MD · Answer

It's possible that a filler could even things out, but it will be temporary.  Lip lifting or lip shape adjustment is quick, in the office, and reliable.  It's another good option for you.

Thank you for your question. Fillers and lip surgery can assist in creating more even lips. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your question. This can be corrected by injecting a small amount of filler in the lip lines. As this is an advanced technique please see an expert injector. Best of Luck!

Andrei Metelitsa, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

Cosmetic injectable fillers, when used cautiously, can be very useful in improving the shape of the lip. Permanent changes are often not desired, as your lip shape might change once the braces are removed so the temporary correction associated with such fillers could be your best choice. Make sure you see an expert board certified physician to perform such treatment.
