I feel that my lips are too big and fleshy. Could I have western sized lips? (Photo)

Lip reduction is less popular than it used to be since large lips are more in fashion. Lips are reduced through a surgical procedure. The incisions are hidden inside the mouth behind the area where the lips meet called the wet line. Since lips are so sensitive, they may remain swollen for a number of weeks.

Your lower lip can be made much smaller but still should be slightly larger than the upper lip. See a very experienced surgeon for this. The recovery from this is approximately one week but the lip will remain swollen for several weeks afterward.

Your lower lip is disproportionately larger than your upper lip as would be compared to the norm for any ethnic or racial group. The answer foBr you would be a reduction of the lower lip so it is no more than 50% larger than your upper lip.
