Sat Sri Akal,
After your beard grows back to its natural length, both sides will look the same. It might take a while for both sides to look equal, but eventually they will (this does not mean that you can shave or trim the longer side to make it look the same!). I am glad that you have stopped trimming your beard, keep up the good faith in Sikhi, soon your beard will be full and normal.
For the second part, for the left side of your moustache use your left and for the right side use your right hand to do this: use your first two fingers and put your middle finger on your upper lip just below your moustache and your index (first) finger on top of your moustache and squeeze your fingers (so that your moustache is being squeezed by the sides of your fingers). Now, while still squeezing your moustache, pull your fingers away (linearly away from your nose) while at the same time twisting them to give your moustache an upwards lift. Do this regularly (once an hour) and soon your moustache will have a natural tendency to stay slightly upwards. This whole process takes about 1.5 seconds after you get used to it (I actually timed it), and you can do it anywhere or whenever your moustache gets in the way of your mouth.
Gur Fateh,
HSD
