What is the best procedure to reduce or fill in my defined upper lip tubercle? (Photos)

Question

I have a larger upper lip tubercle which can make my lips look a bit different. I am curious about some options to either reduce the appearance of it. Ideally, I would want to make my lips look as natural as possible.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

lip fillers and at home hydration and plumping can help (seel ink to emeragecosmetics.com for my essential lip package).  Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. It appears that a tubercle reduction, with careful dermal filler placement can make a nice improvement to your lip appearance while maintaining a natural shape and contour.  Hope this helps.

Kenneth Beer, MD · Answer

Should be relatively easy- I would use any of the amazing fillers that we have such as Kysse, Volbella etc. Which one depends on a variety of factors including how much one needs to use and how thick and mobile the area skin is.

Leonard Grossman, MD · Answer

Just about any plastic surgeon with a good reputation should be able to take care of your needs with a direct excision of the tubercle. At that time you can also discuss what your options are to create better proportions in your lips. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic surgery
