Double philtrum reductiontechnology

When reducing the philtrum, periosteal fixation is performed to preserve the shape of the nostrils
after surgery, and the fine incision and double sutures leave almost no scar.
There is a low probability of side effects after surgery,
such as lifting the tip of the nose, sagging nasal wings, or widening incision lines.

The philtrum length can be
shortened as desired.
But is it always better to reduce it a lot?

Reduction in philtrum
Notes before surgery

When reducing the philtrum, at least 1.2cm must be left.

There is no formula for how much reduction should be made during philtrum reduction surgery. However, leaving at least 1.2cm will allow the lips to close and produce a natural result.

For those who want a clear effect, the recommended length is about 12 to 13 mm.
If you want a natural effect, it is about 11 mm for women and 14 mm for men.

The most important thing is to find the ideal length and proceed with philtrum reduction by considering individual facial characteristics.
