What can i do to fix my crooked lips/smile/lip corners
A patient asked 5 years ago I was always self conscious about my smile so i decided to get braces to fix my teeth but then after my teeth were straight i am still self conscious about the way my lips look at different angles because they look crooked. i believe i do have a crooked jaw that also gives my lips a different shape. also my lip corners on one side goes down while the other looks normal and that looks even more crooked.

Hi and thank you for sharing your question and pictures here! No face is 100% symmetrical and this is just part of our natural individual beauty. However if the issue bothers you, we can certainly do something to help. The issue with corners of mouth can be addressed with some Botox injections, and that’s probably what I recommend you to start. We can also try to do some minor adjustments with fillers, but that needs to be done in small “baby” steps and in a very conservative approach to make sure your natural look is not negatively affected. I hope it helps and good luck!
