Hello: When you get lip filler, is the rule of thumb that the lower lip should be bigger than the upper lip? Thank you
Answer: Lip proportion If you are looking for the aesthetic ideal, yes the bottom lip should be slightly larger than the top lip. However beauty is in the eye of the beholder! You should discuss with your injector what your goals are and what you feel would make you feel best.

Answer: Lip proportion Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photo. Yes, the lower lip should be larger than the upper lip. Some patients prefer similar sized lips, but the upper lip should not be bigger than the lower. I hope this helps. Make sure you see an expert injector for your treatment. Good luck!

Answer: Lip proportion Thank you for your question. There is an "ideal" lip proportion that is about 1:1.6 (top lip:bottom lip). With that being said, everyone is unique and all facial features must be taken into account when analyzing the face. Best of luck!

Answer: Lip augmentation Dear lcp9, 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.

Answer: Depends For most Caucasian women, lips look the best when the ratio of top to bottom lip height is 1:1.618. This ratio can be closer to 1:1 in women of different ethnicities. It also depends on your goals! Keeping the ratios close to what is common for your ethnicity will help ensure the results look really natural.
