So I'm a 23 man from the UK and was wondering how to best fix this flaw, it's quite prominent and can be seen from the front as well bit I don't know how to correct it.
Answer: Turn the focus to your jaw Thanks for your question and the photos your provided. When I look at your profile, rather than looking at your upper lip, I am drawn to chin/lower jaw area. It appears as though your lower jaw is retruded/set back. You may want to consider jaw surgery to treat the problem rather than upper lip reduction. Make sure you consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon. Good luck

Answer: Lip reshaping surgery What you are basically describing is a mismatch between your upper lip and lower. Though your upper lip is protruding in relationship to the lower it’s clear to me ( based on your photos) that your upper lip is properly situated while your lower is actually responsible for the mismatch. Essentially, your lower lip is placed too far back because the chin on which it is situated is weak and receding. One must consider the lower lip and chin as a unit so to properly treat it, a chin augmentation (most usually in the form of a chin implant) likely paired with a lower V2YPlasty should correct this mismatch.

Answer: Lip Your lip is not the problem, but rather you small jaw. I would suggest meeting with an oral surgeon, being examined and X-rayed, and discussing your options. Just based on your photos, moving the jaw forward will should you that your upper lip is just fine.
