The area under my nose (philtrum) is concave. I'like to bring it forward. How can I achieve this? I had 4 successful facial fat grafts to augment my upper face, but I have a mild mouth protrusion and midface recession, which still bothers me. They are both mild. Can cartilage implant be used to correct that too? A sort of paranasal and maxillary implants. How about cadaver irradiated and purified rib cartilage vs my own cartilage? Pic shows what I want to accomplish.
