Is it possible to make a wide mouth narrower with surgery?

I have a large mouth and I really don't like the appearance of it. Is it possible to both make the distance of the corners of the mouth smaller and to reduce the thickness of the lips?

Thank you for your question and photo. Usually this swelling and bruising can last up to 1 month. Be patient. If any asymmetry persists after that then you may have to see a physician to have it fix. Best of Luck!

In my opinion the skill of the injector is much more important than the choice of a hyaluronic acid gel filler.

Dear lady vaneza, Without seeing your photo specific comments are difficult to make. In general, non-surgical procedures performed on the lips, such as filler injection, almost universally make the lips bigger, while lip lift surgery shortens a long lip and improves the shape. Kind regards, James
