I recently corrected my upper row of teeth which receded my upper lip causing an unappealing difference with my lower lip. - I have read here that injecting fat from my body is a possible longterm solution but needs to be done over intervals by a veteran in the field. The results last a decade, correct? - Should I inject my upper lip or philtral columns? If the latter, should it be internal or external? - I would like to keep the number of injections overtime at a minimum & low maintenance.

Hi Thewhoknowswho,Based from the photo you've provided of your lips, pigment laser may help lighten the pigmentation up, while topical bleaching creams may also work, but very slow, in terms of result.
A small amount of Botox can help turn the DAO's in the lower face and it is best to combine with a filler like Restylane Lyft. Please consult a specilaist. Best, Dr. Green
You have a nice shape for your lips. You would benefit from a small amount of filler placed in both the upper and lower lips like Juvederm or Restylane. Please consult an expert who is experienced in lip injections. Best, Dr. Green
