Recommendation for fuller upper lip, possibly shorter philtrum & overall even smile?

Question

I have always been conscious of my uneven smile and so looking for recommendations.

Nelson Lee Novick, MD · Answer

The use of an appropriate HA filler can create a fuller lip, which in turn may may the philtrum appear shorter. A couple of microdroplets of Botox above the upper lip can give a chemical lip flip that may additionally help to deemphasize the philtral length. So as not to end up with unwanted, cookbook-style, unnatural-looking"duck lips" or "sausage lips," you should make effort to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatology injector. Best of luck.

I would highly recommend getting a formal evaluation with and treatment from a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and expert in facial sculpting. Technique is the key to a successful lip augmentation with fillers, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. An experienced physician will be able to determine which filler, how much filler, and which technique will give you the subtle result you're looking for. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

First off, filler can help address your volume asymmetries in the lip itself. More photos of your face, and seeing you in animation, would be very helpful to determine if you are a lip lift candidate, or if you would potentially benefit from some perioral Botox to help balance out the asymmetries.
