Can face change by lip pulling? I have a habit of pulling my lips FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.

Question

Somewhere in December i started pulling my lips very hard(stress) for about 45 days.I feel my face changed, is it possible?? I never felt any pain(slight pain in lips and cheeks) but some cuts appeared inside mouth and also reduction in length of lips.Any explanation??

This is difficult to answer without before and after pictures, but this is unlikely changing your lip shape permanently. If you remain concerned, I recommend following up with a plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. It is difficult to give you advice without seeing photos or examining you in person. However, it is unlikely pulling on the lips has changed the shape permanently. If you are still concerned I recommend having a consultation with an expert. Best of Luck!
