Can Cosmetic Lip Surgery Reduce a Very Wide Philtrum and Cupid's Bow?

Good day! For your guidance, lip lifts can do this by turning the Cupid’s bow upwards, also called as lip eversion. This procedure improves the definition of the philtral columns and Cupid’s bow. Find a board-certified surgeon in your area that has extensive experience on this type of surgery. Have an in person examination and discuss realistic goals and expectations. Best of luck! #RealSelf00

If I understand your question your upper lip is long and dips down towards the lower lip. It is normal and more aesthetic for a philtrum to get narrower as it gets closer to the columella. If it is too narrow it can be widened during and by the bullhorn lip lift. The cupid's bow can easily be modified by fillers like Restylane.

Thank you for your question.

The 'bullhorn 'procedure is designed to shorten the distance between the nose and upper lip. It involves incision at the base of the nose. It will not affect width of philtrum, but will shorten it. Cupid's bow will be of the same width but closer to the columella. Elevation of the vermillion border sometimes called wing excsion can be done in the way to narrower the philtrum and the cupid's bow. Scars ,however, more visible in this instance.
