Dying hair & using makeup & dressing provocatively is not surgically altering our bodies tho & it’s not brazen....Lol. Thats so very old fashioned......we can dress or do what we want. But it’s healthier to love ourselves & not surgically alter ourselves.....every procedure has a risk. I wear makeup...I don’t hate myself...that’s silly.....
E d i t: there are too many really good products to enhance our lips that don’t have any risk......
Learning to apply makeup to fit your mood or the occasion is really fun......lip liners can create all kinds of sultry fuller looks.....without the cost or risk of a procedure.....
I recommend reading this and determining if, like me, you're more drawn to a Cupid's bow (as a sign of youth and therefore attractiveness) than you thought. https://www.nashvillelidsurgery.com/aging-lips/
(Also, keep kissing. It probably keeps the muscles strong that support lip shape.)
Thin lips are aging. Older people often have very thin lips. I have an acquaintance in her 50's whose lips have all but disappeared, another friend in her 70's is the same way. I would urge both to get fillers if I thought they would take it well and consider doing it.
Agreed. I don't focus much on lips in general, but I don't like lip fillers either. I don't understand some people's obsession with wanting to have bigger lips. It usually looks stupid.
You may well know people with fillers in their lips. It can look very natural and makes the face look younger than disappearing lips.
My top lip disappears when I smile. I was briefly involved with a man who didn't like this feature, as he told me. I never wanted to see him again. I couldn't imagine kissing a man who was dissatisfied with my lips.

I couldn’t imagine being with a man that took any part of me & said he didn’t like it......ita.....I wouldn’t see him again either.......hugs....
Any man we choose to be around should love it when we smile IMO...........

This. I've always had thin lips and they are getting thinner. No one can tell I've had filler because my lips are still thin, they're just less thin. They were disappearing without the filler no amount of lip liner was going to change that.

It’s kinda common for women to have a distorted body image or to obsess......but it happens when we don’t have enough self esteem about who we are........love yourself & work on your inside.....& your lips won’t seem so important....
