Can lip filler be placed in the outer portions of my upper lip to create a wider mouth appearance?
Answer: Lip augmentation Dear alexchalamet, I perform a lot of lip injections with fillers such as juvederm and it works great. Many times I need to put more in one side than the other to attempt to even out the vermillion border (The red line of the lip). This helps provide more symmetry at times.For patients looking for a more long lasting result, I recommend fat grafting. That is, using your own bodies fat to make your lips naturally look more shapely. The bonus is that the results last many many years. In general, I avoid using permanent prosthesis because I find that the lips are such dynamic and sensitive structures, the end result is not natural.

Answer: Lip Augmentation Candidate -- Injectable Fillers (Juvederm, Restylane, Volbella), Fat Grafting to Lips, NovaThreads for Lift I would highly recommend getting a formal evaluation with and treatment from a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and expert in facial sculpting. Technique is the key to a successful lip augmentation with fillers, so you'll want to see someone meticulous. An experienced physician will be able to determine which filler, how much filler, and which technique will give you the subtle result you're looking for. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Maybe not I think you want the upper lip corners lifted and not widen your upper lip. Fillers can plump up the corners but might create a ridge or line above it. Another option is to try small amount of Botox on the upper lip to relax the muscles and open the corners which should look like it is wider.

Answer: Can lip flip help widen the mouth Lip flip with small droplets of filler injected along the outline or vermilion border of the lip can help widen the mouth and give you that beautiful pout you've always wanted! Another option you may want to check out is the corner lip lift which is longer lasting. Best from Boston, Dr. Onir
