V-Y lip augmetation or fat transfer better for me? Does a V-Y plasty looks unnatural (when lips move)? (photo)

lil_curious
I'm a 25 year old female and my goal is to balance out the overall shape of my lips especially so that there is an increase in the red portion of the corners of the upper lip. (I thought about a corner lip lift but I'm afraid of the scaring.) Also I'd like to increase the volume. I've been thinking about getting a v-y plasty, but I'm not sure about how natural the results would look and if it would help my goal. Altetnatively I thought about a fat transfer? Thanks :)
