Correction of lower lip sag is challenging with essentially a soft tissue sagging sling between the mouth corners pulled down by gravity and chin muscle attachments. The combination of a V-Y mucosal advancement with a shortening vestibuloplasty can be an effective approach to it.

Any orthodontic treatment/ veneers should be completed before having a lip lift done. Lips are designed to provide you with the most optimal tooth show. No need to correct veneers afterwards,. Piotr Osuch, MD, PhD

In your frontal view, your corners are quite low. I would do a very small center lip lift but more lateral lip lift. This should not change the ratio of your face. Best Wishes, Gary Horndeski, M.D.
