Will lip injections fix my turtle lip? (Photo)

Question

I have thin lips and I'm looking into Injections I have a really defined Cupid's bow and it comes to a point and i look like a turtle when Im not smiling. The point on my lip hangs over my bottom lip, I want to be able to have a nice full lips even when I have a resting face. I had an accident when I was younger and had to get stitches on my top lip, I'm not sure if this is why my lip looks like this, it happened a really long time ago but, I'm worried if I get injections my lips will look weird.

You should start out with maybe 1cc of filler and go from there. You do not want to overdo too much filler in the lips. It also depends on the look you are going for too. You can always add more filler to the lips if needed. Just remember if you are going to do your lips and you do not want to bruise you should not take any aspirins or anything that will thin the blood since brusing can occur.

you would do great with fillers to the lips and chin area. I suggest a formal consult. cannulas will limit complications. Best, Dr. Emer.
