Further treatment needed. Any suggestions?

Anonymous435310Jul 10, 2016
I had lip lift surgery to harmonise my facial features better due to an unfortunate rhinoplasty. The scar is stretched possibly from facial yoga, sugar scrubbing or the suctuting to the nasal bone I'm not sure but Im hoping a specialist can help me on the best treatment plan to correct this outcome and redo the distance, lift the sides of lips and overall make nice youthful full lips that suit my face. Your advice and knowledge is sincerely appreciated.

Thank you for your question. A chin implant will address your weak jawline. It would be helpful to see a close-up picture to address how the lip lift will improve your result. Always consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,
