Upper lip protrudes more than lower lip. What can be done? (photo)

August 2, 2020
Asked By:Idrinktea in New York, NY

My lips do not meet, the lower lip is more recessed than the top lip, as well as my chin. I have visited a dentist and been advised that I have a very slight overbite so it is not my teeth causing the issue. Why are my lips like this , and what can be done to give a more streamlined and feminine profile?
