Philtrum Reduction 
Philtrum Contouring

Mini Philtrum Reduction

A procedure combining philtrum reduction

with philtrum contouring.

It shortens the philtrum and creates a natural concave shape,

to achieve an ideal nose-to-lip line in both length and shape.

Shortening the philtrum makes the mid-face appear shorter,

resulting in a smaller, more youthful-looking face.

Worried about scarring from traditional philtrum reduction?

Mini Philtrum Reduction minimizes incisions compared to traditional methods.
Combining minimal incision reduction
with philtrum contouring that adds natural definition to the face.

Before Surgery

A small incision is made beneath the nose, and the tissue is gently lifted upward to naturally shorten the philtrum.

A small incision is made inside the mouth, and a special thread is inserted to create a natural concave shape in the philtrum.

(+ Optional lip filler injection)

After Surgery

POINT!

The philtrum appears shorter and more defined, adding depth and dimension to the face.

The philtrum plays a key role as the centerline of the face.

A long philtrum can make facial proportions appear unbalanced,

and may cause you to look older.

In such cases, Mini Philtrum Reduction can help

achieve a more balanced facial appearance.
