The lips are one of the key features of the face, and when they are uneven it can impact the overall appearance of both men and women. Genetics play a big part in causing uneven lips, but age also has a big effect on their shape, size and appearance. Over time, lips can naturally become thinner and lose fullness and definition; this can result in uneven lips.

The reason for this loss of fullness with ageing is primarily caused by a loss of collagen in the skin and muscles becoming more relaxed around the mouth area. This can often lead to lips appearing as uneven, thin and less defined than they used to be. Some men and women could also be born with uneven lips depending on their genetics.

While having uneven lips is completely natural and normal, many people feel like it has an impact on their self-confidence. Full, voluptuous lips are often portrayed in the media as being more attractive, leaving those with thin or uneven lips feeling self-conscious.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers have been growing in popularity recently, as more and more people are beginning to see the impressive results they can give. It is a cosmetic procedure which uses a clear gel, almost identical to hyaluronic acid that is naturally produced by the body.

For treating uneven lips, these fillers are injected into the area and work with the body’s own hyaluronic acid. The results are plumped, smooth and well-shaped lips which will last for approximately six months. Over time, these fillers are naturally broken down through biological processes and will eventually be removed from the boy completely.
