I have some distance from my nose to mouth and I want to get lip lift. However my front teeth are pretty exposed as is and I dont know if getting the procedure will make the teeth expose even more. Is that something I should worry about?

Hello, the most correct treatment for asymmetry on your lip will be lip filler injection. A surgical solution is not recommended due to scarring. Although the fillers are absorbed over time, you can have them reapplied.
