There are canons of beauty that help us in practical work. It is far from always possible to create anthropometrically perfect lips. However, this is the ideal that every specialist in aesthetic medicine should strive for.

Perfect shape of lips: what is it
Lips with clear contours, well defined relief of filtrum columns and "Cupid's arch" are considered ideal. The width of the mouth at rest should be slightly less than the distance between the pupils (average 5.9cm).

The height and volume of the red border of the lower lip is larger than the upper one by 1/3.
Profile lines from tip of nose to chin — rounded with soft smooth transitions. The most protruding point of the red border of the lower lip is slightly advanced in comparison with the analogous point of the red border of the upper lip.

The Ricketts line should be 4mm from the upper lip and 2mm from the lower lip. The corners of the mouth should be raised, the skin of the upper and lower lip without signs of aging, "marionette wrinkles", the chin crease in the state of rest almost noticeable.
Secrets of creating perfect lips
Before how to start correction, it is necessary to evaluate the lips:
- their width (large, medium, small);
- thickness (thin, medium, thick);
- lateral part of the lip;
- the shape of the red border and filtrum columns;
- expression of "Cupid's arch".
These structural units give a special personality to the lips.

relative to the nose and symmetry of the red border in height
and symmetry of the red border in height. The evaluation criterion is based on the ratio of segments 1 (connecting the lower point of the base of the nose with the middle of the "Cupid's bow" on the border of the red border) and 2 (connecting the most protruding lateral point of the wing of the nose with the border of the red border of the upper lip). The ideal ratio of these segments is 1:1.6. This type is observed in patients with short dermal part of the upper lip. In correction more attention is paid to increasing the volume of the lateral parts of the upper lip.
The ratio is greater than 1:1.6, for example, 1:1.8.Read also:

The ratio is less than 1:1.6, e.g. 1:1.3.Owners of this type — these are patients with thin lips and age patients. In this case, the maximum amount of filler should be distributed in the central part of the lip.
