Is there a Way to Smooth the Protuberant Philtrum Area? (photo)

One has to be very careful what they wish for they may find it.  It dealing with an issue for someone with a very attractive face, it is important that it may be difficult to make the face much better but relatively easy to make the face less authentic.  I think taking out volume in this area would be a huge mistake.  However it might be possible to make some other perioral areas better.  This might include a time bit of volume along the lip edge and possibly chin volume.

Hello,In some patients, a long upper lip can be improved with a lip lift to balance the proportion with the lower lip. This ratio is important to improve the balance between lips (white lips or filtrum length).If the issue is to give more definition to cupid's bow, a filler can be considered. However, a common issue is trying to lift the upper lip with a filler ("lift effect") instead of shortening the upper lip, which can increase the disbalance between the upper and lower lips, worsening the problem.Hope this helps.Regards!Dr Bukret
