Will Dermal Fillers make my mouth look more symmetrical?

Question:

Since I was born I have had respiratory problems and breathe through my mouth rather than my nose. My upper lip is significantly smaller than my lower one and I am considering silicone lip augmentation to make my mouth more symmetrical.

How much is this likely to cost and will the effects of the silicone implant last permanently? I would hate the effects to start fading as this would alter the function of my lips. I am a 35 year-old male.

Answer:

Thank you very much for your enquiry. It is possible to change the size of your upper lip with a silicone implant or dermal fillers which will improve its appearance. However, it is unlikely to rectify any problems you have with breathing and will only alter the external appearance of your lips.
