It is impossible to evaluate lip aesthetics without an examination, even less so without a good photograph that shows the lips in detail in different positions, but also their relationship to the face.
A wide or increased horizontal length of the lips is known as macrostomia. Whether you have true macrostomia can not be determined without seeing a picture of your lips. The width of the mouth can be reduced by moving the corners inward but at the price of a scar . Whether such scars are worth it depends on how wide one's mouth is.
