Lip augmentation: Adding volume to your lips will make them larger there is no way to make the opening to you mouth larger without surgery and a scar.

Fillers in the lips can make them look more pouty. But it doesn't make your mouth bigger.

Lip augmentation: Increases the lip size, but does not change the mouth size at all.

Not really . . .: A lip augmentation can make your lips fuller and give you 'pouttier' lips, but it would not make a small mouth bigger.

Lip augmentation: Lip augmentation will make your lips fuller and poutier, but your mouth will not appear larger.
Fillers like Restylane (dermal fillers) or juvederem are the best of choices.
Good luck from nyc.
