Is it possible to help the lip asymmetry and nasolabial fold/sagging that's worse on one side of my face? (Photo)

Question

I do have jaw asymmetry , age 47. I feel the drop on one side of my face is very unattractive and aging and wondering what the possibility to fix it as best as possible

Gary M. Horndeski, MD · Answer

I recommend a lip lift.  A lip lift does 4 things: shortens the distance between your nose and upper lip, increases the mucosa of the upper lip, increases the incisor show and pulls up the corners.  This may help correct the asymmetry as one side will be resected more than the other.  The procedure takes 1 hour to perform under local anesthesia and costs $3,000, much less invasive than a face lift.

Best Wishes,

Gary Horndeski, M.D.
