Can I get lip fillers if I play the trumpet?

emily9208Apr 12, 2020

The asymmetry that you have is actually quite common. The right side of your face has stronger muscles than the left and they are pulling more. There is nothing to fix here. There is no good non-surgical or surgical procedure that can truly address the dynamic nature of your concern. Sometimes...

It appears that you have a left upper red lip scar. I would try steroid injections first and if no improvement after two injections, spaced two months apart, I would offer you a surgical lip scar revision. This has to be done carefully by an experienced lip surgeon.Consult with an experienced...

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs.  Your upper lip appears quite full especially along the paler skin between your lip and nose. i would not pursue further treatment in the center as i think it would make you only look duckier.

The kenalog will not remove the biopolymer but it has tremendous potential to damage the native fat in your lip. It will be a disaster. It is sometimes possible to remove the filler from behind the lip. For others, we recommend adding a judicious amount of hyaluronic acid filler to blend the ...
