I like my nose and lips and my teeth was already exposed to the perfect degree but I didn't like that my philtrum was too long so I decided to get a lip lift to shorten it. I got my lip lift in Thailand at the Asia Cosmetic Hospital. It was not listed as one of their procedure but I requested it and the doctor said he can do it for me for $1050 US dollars. I was shocked and very upset with the results. My philtrum was shorten, however it changed the base of my nose. My nose flared out wide exposing more of my nostrils and my upper lip looked like it was lifted too much to where I can't even close my mouth at rest. I now have bugs bunny teeth. Is it suppose to look like this after a lip lift and it is just swollen or was this a bad lip lift? If the procedure was not done correctly, what can I do to fix this? I posted my before and after photos. Please help!

It's still very early. My nose is still swollen 8 months post op. When did you have your surgery? Just remember, you are still very swollen.

hi there. can you tell me how many milimeters were removed and how long ago you had your surgery? If it was not long ago you will see some relaxation and reduction in swelling.

I heard the doctor said 2mm but I was not sure if he was talking bout the incision. I got this done 2 days ago

No way did he just take off 2 mm. If you only got it done 2 days ago I urge you to totally relax and give it some time. I know it is tempting but do not constantly check your reflection. You will see relaxation of swelling and some dropping of the lip in the coming weeks.

Oh lessanie, your original lips were so perfectly beautiful!!!!!! Oh and the space between your nose and your lip WAS NOT big at all. It was perfect!!! Maybe next time before you take a drastic decision, maybe you could consult with us here? Anyway, I'm sure your lips will normalize when the swelling subsides and you'll feel better. But, girlie, if I were the super fortunate woman to have your original lips.....I'd be the happiest being on earth!!!

Thank you all for the comments! I feel a little better now knowing that I will be able to close my mouth when the swelling goes down. I wish i can turn back the time and do nothing at all if only I knew that I would have to go through all of this trauma.

Hey Give it time I think it is the swelling that is freaking you out...you look great and once the swelling goes down I think you will be really happy...By the way I had a fat transfer to the face a few years back and the swelling made me think I had made a mistake but after it went down I felt a lot better... swelling sucks :)
