Hello, I want to perform a lift of the upper lip. I have 15 millimeters and I want to keep exactly the shape of my lip. But I'm afraid, if I already show my teeth, will I show them too much? I do not want to get a "squirrel look" or a "doll mouth". On the other hand, I have a little pendant columella. After the intervention, will the columella go down? How many millimeters would you cut? Thank you so much, and sorry, my english is quite poor.
