What surgery would fill in the cupids bow on my lips?

Question

I have full lips, but a really prominent cupids bow as well. I know that the bow makes them look much thinner, which I don't like! And I love the shape of lips without a cupids bow. So, is there any way to do just this?

Elliot M. Heller, MD · Answer

You should start out with 1cc of filler and go from there. You do not want to overdo too much filler in the lips. It also depends on the look you are going for too. You can always add more filler to the lips if needed. Just remember if you are going to do your lips and you do not want to bruise you should not take any aspirins or anything that will thin the blood since brusing can occur.

Fillers can be used to enhance and reduce certain parts of your lips. A cupid's bow is typically considered attractive so a photo or in office visit will be very helpful.

Robert M. Tornambe, MD · Answer

Be careful! A prominent Cupid's bow is considered attractive and most desireable! If you believe that it makes your lips look thinner, then try conservative augmentation with  filler, like Juvederm Ultra plus. I do not recommend removing or blunting your Cupid's bow with surgery, you will regret it!
