What is the Haru Lip Asymmetry Correction?
The key to lip correction surgery is an accurate diagnosis.
Lip asymmetry correction is a procedure that addresses irregularities and inequality of the lips, whether in size, volume, shape or height.
For many people who want lip correction because their lips look unnatural or awkward, it is difficult to achieve good results with just one simple procedure such as lifting the corners of the mouth or adding volume to the lips.
However, without knowing what kind of procedure is truly needed, choosing the wrong procedure may actually make the lips look even more unnatural. Lip correction surgery requires an accurate diagnosis to determine the right treatment for you, allowing for a natural correction.

Key Factors in Diagnosing Lip Asymmetry
Volume
Due to the difference between sunken and protruding areas, sunken parts appear more sunken, and protruding parts look even more prominent. In most cases, if the sunken areas are naturally filled and smoothly connected, a more balanced appearance can be achieved. At this point, it is important to carefully consider the overall relationship of the facial features such as the nasolabial angle, chin, lips, mouth corners, and the area below the lips. Simply filling the hollow areas without such consideration will not lead to satisfying results.
Muscle Movement
Spacing of the nostrils, flattening of the philtrum, sagging of mouth corners, protrusion of the chin, excessive gum exposure when smiling, flattening of the philtrum, and wrinkles around the mouth—all these are influenced by the movement of the muscles around the mouth. It is crucial to precisely assess these muscle movements and correct them so that unnatural movements are softened, resulting in natural expressions and a balanced look. Since there are many muscles gathered around the mouth, if these muscles are weakened or altered incorrectly, it can lead to awkward expressions, asymmetry, and even discomfort when talking or eating. Therefore, such corrections must only be performed under an accurate diagnosis by experienced professionals.
Design Procedure
Procedures such as lifting the mouth corners, enhancing the lip line, shortening the philtrum, correcting hollows, balancing protrusions, and adjusting nostril exposure are all designed to create a more natural and attractive lip shape. The most important part of this stage is choosing the procedures that suit the individual’s characteristics. Even if a certain procedure may generally help others, if it doesn’t match your unique features, it can make your lips look unnatural or awkward. That’s why detailed consultation with an experienced specialist is essential, to design a procedure that creates the image you desire and suits your individual facial balance.

How We Create Natural Results of Lip Asymmetry Correction
The most important point of lip correction procedures is achieving a natural look.
Among procedures such as fillers, Botox, and thread lifting—which require little to no recovery time—the treatment areas are chosen and applied based on individual needs. Even if hollow areas are filled and wrinkles are removed, if the result does not look natural, it can appear awkward and be no better than before.
For natural results, factors such as the nasolabial angle (angle between the nose and lips), philtrum, lips, mouth corners, degree of tooth exposure, philtrum length, definition of the philtrum line, gum exposure when smiling, and movement of the orbicularis oris muscles must all be comprehensively considered, as these elements vary from person to person.

Lip Asymmetry Correction: Treatment Areas & Effects
Ideal Lip Profile
Through lip correction surgery, unnatural or harsh-looking lips can be refined to look smooth and attractive.
This creates a bright and natural appearance, giving you a younger impression and allowing you to smile confidently and engage in conversations with others.
Protruding Mouth
For those who need orthodontic correction, have a protruding mouth, and sunken surrounding areas (philtrum, cheeks, chin, or nasolabial folds):
When the surrounding areas such as the philtrum, lips, or cheeks are sun ken, the lips appear more protruded.
By adding volume to these areas and relaxing the overactive muscles around the mouth (using Botox for the strong jawline muscles), deep wrinkles can be softened.
This connects the overall mouth area into a natural line, creating a softer appearance and a beautiful smile.
Sunken Mouth
For those whose chin and upper lip are sunken, making the mouth area look recessed,
for those whose mouth appears sunken after orthodontic treatment,
or for those whose mouth looks sunken due to gum or bone loss with aging
After orthodontic treatment, dental implants, or with aging, gum and bone loss can lead to reduced skin elasticity and fat loss around the mouth.
This often results in a collapsed, hollow appearance of the mouth area, which is commonly referred to as a “sunken mouth.”
While many hospitals address protruding mouths with orthognathic surgery or other complex procedures,
there are few clinics that effectively improve sunken mouths in an aesthetically pleasing way.
At Haru Clinic, simple procedures such as fillers and Botox are used to add natural volume where needed,
restore smooth contours to the recessed mouth area, and correct fine wrinkles in the skin,
creating a natural and attractive mouth shape.
Ideal Frontal Lip Profile
Through lip correction procedures, lips that look unnatural or awkward can be made prettier and smoother.
This correction results in a brighter, more natural, and youthful impression,
allowing you to smile confidently and engage in conversations with others.
Drooping Mouth Corners
For those with thin lower lips and a downturned mouth
When the corners of the mouth droop, it can give a gloomy impression and make your smile less attractive.
Simply lifting the drooping corners can create a much brighter and softer appearance.
At Haru Clinic, simple procedures such as Botox, fillers, and thread lifting are customized to the individual’s mouth shape to gently lift the mouth corners, creating a brighter look and a more attractive smile.
Long and Flat Philtrum
For those whose upper lip curves inward or those with a wide gap between the nose and upper lip
When the philtrum is long and flat, the face looks longer, the lips appear recessed, and this often gives an older impression.
At Haru Clinic, simple procedures such as thread lifting and fillers, which require no recovery time, help shorten the philtrum length, define the lip and philtrum lines, and create a brighter and more youthful appearance.
Wide Alar Base (Nostril Width)
For those whose nostrils appear too wide from the front, making the nose look flat even if the tip is raised
For many Koreans, wide nostrils can make the face appear broad and flat, lacking definition and giving a dull impression.
At Haru Clinic, we use a simple, scar-minimizing procedure (without the need for a long recovery period) to narrow the alar base. This creates a slimmer, more refined nose shape, resulting in an overall sharper and more balanced appearance.
