Help with strange lip shape. Is this normal? (Photo)

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

Hello, and thank you for providing photos along with your question. Patients that undergo lip augmentation will often experience some swelling, and full results will be visible within 2 weeks. If by then you are still unhappy with your results, you may seek follow-up from your injector or advice from another expert.

I highly recommend scheduling an in-person consultation with a reputable, experienced injector with expertise in lip fillers. These experts are armed with a better knowledge of facial anatomy, as well as the most advanced injectable techniques that can achieve the most natural-looking results. During your consultation, your provider can assess your lips, recommend the best treatment plan, and ensure the best possible outcome.

Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photos. I don’t see anything particularly unusual in the photos. In person consultation with a board certified oculofacial surgeon will help discover what the problem is an give possible solutions. Good luck!

Dear Ab2593,
I perform a lot of lip injections with fillers such as juvederm and it works great. Many times I need to put more in one side than the other to attempt to even out the vermillion border (The red line of the lip). This helps provide more symmetry at times.For patients looking for a more long lasting result, I recommend fat grafting. That is, using your own bodies fat to make your lips naturally look more shapely. The bonus is that the results last many many years.
In general, I avoid using permanent prosthesis because I find that the lips are such dynamic and sensitive structures, the end result is not natural.

I'm sorry you are unhappy with your filler treatment. You will want to wait 14 days from your treatment for final results. If after that time you still have concerns, return to your injector for an evaluation. You have the option of having the filler dissolved with hyaluronidase if desired.

Hello and thank you for your question. It is always best to see you face to face for a consult and examination however in this case I think its best you speak to your nurse about your concerns. If you are unhappy there are small tweaks you can do to help the area. I hope that helps answer your question. Always seek an experienced and qualified medical professional for these treatments. Very best wishes
