I have an asymmetrical mouth at rest and especially when speaking. When I speak it looks as though I am a stroke victim. Is there any way to correct this problem? I have included several pics showing my lips at rest, speaking, and smiling. I would appreciate any feedback regarding this.

Answer: Asymmetric lips Thanks for your question, I don't love the idea of chasing asymmetry with filler. Most times, the asymmetry is with movement and not at rest. This is usually because some people have different strengths of facial contraction and movement which can be nerve related or muscle related. You would be a good candidate for lip filler, but asymmetrical filling (to help dynamic asymmetry) can look silly at rest. We're our own worst critic so keep that in mind and find an experienced specialist who performs lip augmentation regularly. Hope this helps and God Bless!Dr. Robb

Answer: Asymmetrical Lips? Lip Filler Candidate You appear to be a candidate for lip fillers. Lip augmentations with fillers is a great option to improve the fullness, suppleness and symmetry of the lips. Results can be very natural-looking and will feel very natural. The amount needed will depend on your desired results, but 0.5 will give improvement. I prefer to use a micro cannula to inject the lips to prevent bruising. Look for a cosmetic dermatologist or plastic surgeon who is an expert in fillers.
