I wanted to make both my top and bottom lip smaller. The main issue I have is my lips having a really pink skin toward the inner most part of my lips (where my lips touch). I hate it. The only solution I thought os if tightening the skin on my lips, I don't know for sure though. Any suggestions are welcomed...Thanks.

Answer: Lip Reduction
Although possible to makes lip less full, it is critical that it is done for the right reasons, that there are realistic expectations and other key factors. Without an interview and an exam (or at lease photos to review) it would be difficult at best to make a specific recommendation. Best advice is to see a board certified aesthetic plastic surgeon.

Answer: Yes, I can help reduce your lips Yes, I can help reduce your lips and in many cases reduce the color without much difficulty. I perform a lot of lip reductions for ethnic purposes and to reduce the pink lip color. Depending on how much you need or want reduced (or that I feel you should reduce) and depends on how much pink is showing I can help you either reduce or virtually eliminate the presence of the lighter pink. One think you need to know is that in African-Americans the transition from pink to dark is oftentimes (but not always) gradual and when the incision is made the pink and dark changes more abruptly but since this also exists in nature it should not be an issue so long as you know this in advance.
