Procedure to Fix Protruding Lips?

theusedwef
My mouth protrudes as a result of my lips. I have seen a cosmetic dentist but he informed me that my teeth are not the cause. The problematic area is not the lip itself but I have a lot of fat in the area between my lips and nose (PHILTRUM area). Is there a procedure to remove the fat there? I also attached photos. Please help me Drs as I'm fairly unhappy with how I look. I am worried that lip reduction will only reduce the size of my lips. I want my philtrum area to be pushed back
