Hi, my lips are very asymmetrical. I want to know how to fix this permanently. What is the best surgery for this?
Answer: Lip asymmetry Hello, the most correct treatment for asymmetry on your lip will be lip filler injection. A surgical solution is not recommended due to scarring. Although the fillers are absorbed over time, you can have them reapplied.

Answer: Lip asymmetry Dear Imaginative230061, 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.

Answer: Lip Augmentation Results with Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), NovaThreads, Fat Grafting, Implants You would get a nice improvement with lip fillers. Volbella, Restylane, and Juvederm are good to create a symmetrical lip. NovaThreads can be used to improve lift and shape. Implants or fat are alternatives. Technique will be important here, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer
