Non existent lips - would a lip lift give me good results?

September 5, 2019
Asked By:katielou92 in London, GB

My lips are incredibly thin. I recently had veneers put on my front 10 teeth - my normal teeth slightly protruded inwards and therefore my upper lip had zero support. Whilst I can feel that support now, it’s hard to see a big change to my lip size. I’d like to get a lip lift to increase the red lip, but am concerned about too much teeth show and my chin looking huge in comparison to my small philtrum (currently 17mm). Would a chin reduction work be required or lower vermillion advancement?
