I had lip filler 6 months ago and there was migration above lip. We dissolved and it looked fine, so I got a lip flip. Now my upper lip sticks out further than bottom. Is this from lip filler or can a lip flip be strong enough to cause this?

Answer: Upper lip fullness Hi Loving316656, this is a great question. It appears that your upper lip is fuller in volume. So, correcting the balance would require adding filler to the bottom lip, mainly in the center. The lips should have an ideal ratio of 1:1.6, with the bottom lip having slightly more volume. If you feel this change happened after the lip flip, you can just let it wear off (about 2 months) and see if it resolves. However, this is most likely not the cause.
