As shown in the pictures, the middle part of my upper lip very droopy and has a lot of volume, whereas the sides of my lip have no volume. How can I make the middle part less droopy and make the sides more voluminous? Overall, I just want my upper lip to have a straight line so that when I smile, my teeth are showing equally. Will I be able to acccomplish this through lip injections? Thank you

Answer: Changing the Shape of Your Lip The safest way to change the shape of your lip is to use a small amount of Juvederm. This can easily and effectively augment the shape and volume of your lip. I would advise against surgery as the results can lead to scars and unhappy results, especially at such a young age. Please consult a board certified dermatologist with a great deal of experience with cosmetic lip injections for the best results.

Answer: Upper Lip Reshaping While injectable fillers may be a good starting point, it is not what you are going to do on a long-term sustained basis. In addition, fillers can only add volume to the sides to match the central fullness which is already too much. Ultimately a central upper lip vermilion reduction done horizontally combined with V-Y mucosal rollouts on the sides will be needed to create a more even upper lip smile line.
