Can you widen a smile?

This section of the forum is dedicated to discussions on various surgical techniques for facial rejuvenation, including fat transfer/fat grafting, browlift, blepharoplasty (cosmetic eyelid surgery), facelift, etc. Also, this category includes questions on hand rejuvenation via fat grafting. (Of note, Dr. Lam does not perform body rejuvenation except for hand fat grafting)

Can you widen a smile?

My lips are an okay size, my mouth seems proportionately too small on my long face. What do you suggest to make a mouth broader?

That question is very hard to answer without seeing you in person. There are oftentimes some tricks when I see your face. However, obviously, we are all born with limitations that cannot be improved on. That may very well be the case when I see you. It really is not possible to make a mouth physically bigger, as far as I know of.
