Too much space between upper lip and nose: fillers are still a good idea? (Photos)

April 14, 2018
Asked By:MatiLove in Los Angeles, CA

I have never liked the space between my philtrum and nose and I think that stress diets (a lots of!), are to blame. I had fillers on lips(juvederm etc), and I like myself better but still I think, when I look at my face, something is “missing”. Are fillers still a good idea, or you think the gap is beh big? I tend to make a strange thing with my upper lip, pretending to have bigger lips (like “pouting” them, you will get a better idea just from pictures)... just to “fix” this gap I don’t like.
