I've only recently become aware of this, and being self councious as it is, I was gutted noticing my mouth in pictures. I do however remember having dental work for a filling (cavity in the US), and maybe the anaesthetic had something to do with messing up my lips?? Im just wondering what the problem may be, and if there's any way to fix it. Thank you :)

Answer: Lip/Mouth Asymmetry Anesthesia from dental work is unlikely to have anything to do with your mouth asymmetry now. There are cosmetic dermal fillers (Restylane/Juvederm) that can be used to help give improved symmetry to the lips and mouth. I would recommend an in-person consultation with a physician with a lot of experience in the use of fillers around the mouth. In this way you both can decide if you are a good candidate for this approach and the doctor can discuss risks/benefits of a non-surgical correction of your lip/mouth area. Damon B.

Answer: Asymmetric Lips Dermal fillers work very well to camouflage facial asymmetries, especially in the lip region. The fillers can increase fullness and improve definition, correcting your crooked smile. The common fillers used in the United States are made of hyaluronic acid. I would make sure to go to a physician who often injects the lips as they can easily be overdone. Good luck!
