Cupid’s bow lip surgery regret & possible future treatment? (Photos)

anitagr748Jan 14, 2023
Hi!I had a Cupid’s bow lip surgery of the upper lip a month ago and highly regret the treatment. A minimal amount of tissue was excised and sutured along the dry-wet line of the upper lip - it was meant to be a modest removal of lip tissue. I had a certain degree of lip competence before and now it is worse. I hate the exaggerated curve in the lower lip and how it seems to flatten the curve of the top of the upper lip I had before. Any advice on fixing this? Thank you.
