Solutions for Thin and Uneven Lips

  Thank you for sharing your question and pictures here! I am sorry to hear that you feel bad about your lips. If you look carefully in any faces, you will often find some degrees of unevenness, so it's not a big issue on its own, but as it has reached a level that bothers you, I highly recommend that you consult an experienced cosmetic physician to discuss lip adjustment with filler injection. There are various hyaluronic acid fillers available that can be used for lips to correct unevenness while maintaining a natural look, with results lasting from months to a few years depending on the filler used. It's not a permanent solution (well, nothing is permanent in life, is it?) and the injections need to be repeated every few years, but if you keep working with the same experienced physician who knows you and your desired results very well, you will most likely see best results. I hope it helps and good luck!
