My top lip protrudes after having lip filler. Should I get more filler in the bottom lip or will this look unnatural?

Dear eliza bethany,
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.

If your answer to the question's above ("Was I born with a bigger upper lip?" "Is this natural to me?") are "yes" then you should not get more filler.

Another concern (if you decide to get more filler) would be maintaining the natural shape of your lips, so long as you're wanting to remain natural-looking.

In general, the bottom lip is usually bigger than the bottom. However, everyone's anatomy is unique and it's important to consider your own uniqueness when getting all injectables.
