How can mouth widening be done? Surgery, Botox, filler? (Photos)

Asked By:gunner1066 in Warszawa, Województwo mazowieckie, Polska

I’ve been thinking about mouth widening for a while. The width of my mouth corner from one corner to the other amounts to 5.5 cm. I wish it was wider by about 1 cm. How can it be done? Am I stuck with a plastic surgery or is it possible to change the width by means of Botox/filler?

Cory Bovenzi, MD says:

Hi and thanks for the question! I think lip filler and later possibly microfat injection would be the best treatment. A surgery would be more likely to leave a scar and may cause muscle mobility issues
