When I smile it’s so small and unglued. Even when I talk my teeth barely show or maybe the front two. I don’t know if I need jaw surgery or something to change it, or if braces would fix the problem. I just want to have a nice smile and not creepy. Thanks for any feedback you can offer. I had lip fillers done 7 months ago if that helps I noticed smile was a bit smaller, but still was similar before.

Thank you for your question. No, lip fillers will not permanently change your lip color. The color you are seeing in the photos is most likely due to swelling and inflammation which can take up to 2 weeks to resolve. I hope this helps.
Thank you for your question,
Fillers can be used to improve the shape and fullness of the lips. The best way to determine if lip fillers are right for you is through a consultation with a certified injector. Best of luck.
With an ultrathin upper lip, a lip advancement procedure would be preferred over injectable fillers. It would provide a permanent increase in vermilion show as well as being able to create a more defined Cupid's bow of the central upper lip.
