30 y/o interested in lip lift. Would a vermillion border lift help me achieve my desired look? (photo)

Kristy1990girlNov 2, 2022
I scheduled a consult with a doctor in NY who said I’m a good candidate for a Vermilion border lip lift. I have a short distance between my nose and lip so I am NOT a candidate for a subnasal lift. Can you please give some advice? I know there can be a scar associated with this procedure I am 30 years old. The top photo is my lips with filler and bottom photo is my dream lip shape. Appreiciate your advice!

This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. Buccal fat pad gives slimming not symmetry. Masseter botox will make you slimmer and make the jawline more loose. Fillers help give shaping and contouring. If you want perfect or close to perfect symmetry...
