No two lips are the same — and that’s exactly why a one-size-fits-all filler approach doesn’t work. Whether you want more definition, subtle volume, or correction of unevenness, choosing the right technique is key to getting results that feel natural, balanced, and completely you.



At Mesglo Aesthetic Clinic London, we specialise in bespoke lip enhancements that are designed to respect and enhance your unique lip shape and facial proportions. Here’s how we approach lip symmetry and filler technique — and what to expect if you’re considering treatment.



Understanding Your Natural Lip Shape



Your natural lip shape is determined by:



👄 Vermillion border – the defined line where the pink lip meets the skin👄 Cupid’s bow – the peaks at the top centre of the upper lip👄 Philtrum columns – the vertical lines between your nose and lips👄 Upper-to-lower lip ratio – a key factor in perceived balance and harmony👄 Lip movement – how your lips move when you talk, smile, or rest



Different people have different lip dynamics — which is why a good injector must assess not just volume, but function, form, and symmetry in motion.



Common Lip Asymmetries We Correct at Mesglo



Even the most beautiful lips can have mild asymmetries that become more noticeable with age, photo angles, or facial expression. Some common concerns include:



- 🔹 One side of the upper or lower lip sitting higher or fuller



- 🔹 Loss of definition on one side of the Cupid’s bow



- 🔹 Inverted or tucked-in upper lip



- 🔹 Uneven vermillion border



- 🔹 Disproportion between upper and lower lip



These can be corrected with precise filler placement — often using less than 1ml of product — to restore balance without over-volumising.

At Mesglo, we use a range of advanced lip injection techniques depending on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. https://mesglolondon.co.uk/lip-shapes-symmetry-choosing-the-right-filler-technique-for-you/
