Female, age 40, procedure to correct protruding lower lip/deep mentolabial sulcus? (Photos)

Thank you for your question and photos. You would likely benefit from a chin implant to improve your jawline and contour and provide adequate support beneath your lower lip. A lip lift generally focuses on the upper lip but is an excellent choice for treating an extended philtrum.

I recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon. They will be able to discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals with you to determine the best combination of treatment options.

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Based on these photos, it appears that chin augmentation would create major improvement. Once that is done position of the lip will change; in some cases aditional lip reduction/rotation may be needed. Hope this helps. Good luck.
