How do you increase upper lip vermillion show outside of cupid bow?

Hello snoopsterLip lifts are minor surgical procedures that actually shorten the distance between the nose and upper lip and allow more of your central upper teeth to show both at rest and when you smile. This has sometimes been called the bullhorn procedure because of the shape. 

There are surgical and non-surgical approaches to lip augmentation. Non-surgical approaches include botox (slight lift, reducing gum show) and filler (volume restoration). Surgically, you can have two separate incisions under the nose (italian), one incision under the nose (bull horn), one incision at the red/white upper lip junction (gull wing) or two separate incision at the corners, or a combination, depending on your desired look and anatomy. A slight amount of the appropriate filler into the red lip in the areas you are interested in increasing the vermillion show of should do the trick. Consult with an experienced lip surgeon for a complete range of options that are appropriate for your situation.
