Can I Get Wider Lips?

Q: Dr. Eppley, Can i get wider lips?Does it look naturally?Does my face muscles work correctly after that?Is there a scar?

A:You are referring to the mouth widening surgery. This can be done and generally lengthens each mouth corner by 5 to 7 mm. It does not interfere with any of the workings of the facial muscles. It does leave a fine line scar around each mouth corner.
