Im 27 years old and my bottom lip sticks out a lot, not only the lip but the actual skin under it as well. I even have a deep wrinkle on my chin because of it. Its so bad that if i keep my mouth open, my bottom teeth also show. I have a slight overbite and a small chin. I find myself bitting my bottom lip a lot when i go out just to stop it from sticking out. I do not wish to have a chin implant as i have a thin upper lip and i think it would make me look boyish. Thank you, Isabel
Answer: Lower lip reduction may be considered depending on your examination. When a lower lip is rolled out too far with the internal mucous membrane showing, lower lip reduction may be considered, depending on your examination. Consider re-asking your questiuon with photos. Thank you. Dr Joseph

Answer: See a Board Certified Provider Thanks for your question, and without seeing your pictures and actually examine you, it is difficult to determine whether a filler alone would do the trick here. It is easy to enhance the upper lip, and after seeing what needs to be done, this may be an easy fix, but not necessary the best solution. I would recommend getting a thorough examination by a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon and then seeing if there is a structural problem that needs to be addressed on the lower lip first which may be a more permanent solution for you.
