I am only 23 years old but my mouth looks pouty

Question:
I am only 23 years old but my mouth looks pouty, and not in a sexy way. If I am not smiling, it seems like the skin to both sides of my mouth is too loose or thick. Is that fat in the cheeks? Would I need to come in or can I send a picture of myself to you. What type of procedure would help, a face lift a midface lift?

Answer:
At 23 years old I would not recommend any type of facelift. I would really need to see you in consultation as more than one thing can cause the pouty look you have described. My thought would be more of filling the area with injectable fillers or fat than it would be to remove fat or skin.
