Lip fillers for a small mouth - can it be done? (photo)

Hi @onespecialplace. You would be a great candidate for lip rejuvenation. Restylane Kysse is a great product to use for lip rejuvenation. The technique of the provider and the product used are both very important factors for a natural outcome. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications.Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Thank you for sharing your questions and photos. Yes, lip fillers can be done for smaller lips. However, as you mentioned, it is important to maintain facial balance and harmony. In my practice, I have had excellent success using soft hyaluronic acid fillers such as Restylane Silk. I usually recommend that my patients start with 1 syringe and then add more as needed. I recommend consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon who is an experienced injector. 

Thank you for your question in regards to lip augmentation. Hyaluronic acid based fillers such as Juvederm would be a great start to adding volume to your lips. Although lip fillers are temporary, HA fillers can be dissolved if you end up not liking your results. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

You should start out with 1cc of juvederm filler and go from there. You do not want to overdo too much filler in the lips. It also depends on the look you are going for too. You can always add more filler to the lips if needed. Just remember if you are going to do your lips and you do not want to bruise you should not take any aspirins or anything that will thin the blood since brusing can occur.

Fillers, implants and surgery can be used to augment the lip. I suggest a formal consultation to determine what is best. Dr. Emer.
