Can a rhinoplasty help shorten my philtrum?

November 19, 2023

I don't want a lip lift (I like my lips) and plan on getting a rhinoplasty that involves tip augmentation for a bulbous tip. I'm worried this surgery will add some length from the Philtrum. Especially because I think it will be a little longer after I get lefort 1 surgery for my recessed premaxilla and bite issues that are hurting my jaw. I am okay with the length of my Philtrum right now and If it got any longer I would be very upset.Can a bone graft rhino move the nose down a mm or so if need
