Procedure to Reduce Philtrum?

youngrace
I have a very thick, prominent philtrum, which makes me look quite ethnic -something I consider undesirable. Is there anything that can reduce the look of the philtrum lines--i.e., hyaluronic acid? I know people get Juvederm to increase definition of their philtrum, but maybe filling in next to and between the philtrum could serve to also reduce its appearance? Thanks in advance, and have a great night!
