The Secret to a Balanced, Youthful Look Why Philtrum Reduction?
A long philtrum can lengthen the midface, disrupt facial balance, and create an older appearance.
WOORI's philtrum reduction isn't just about shortening the distance. We take a closer look at your unique facial proportions, including philtrum length, upper-lip roll, lip volume and shape to design a personalized approach that enhances harmony and creates a more refined, three-dimensional look.
Scarless, Simply Philtrum Reduction. Perfect Balance. A More Youthful Look
- Scarless Philtrum Reduction
- Secure Triple Periosteal Fixation
- Personalized Design for Facial Balance
POINT 01 Scarless Philtrum Reduction!
| Previous Method (Traditional Approach) | WOORI Philtrum Reduction Technique |
|---|---|
| Incisions were made along the base of the nose to remove skin and muscle tissue. | We create the incision inside the nose then secure the orbicularis oris muscle to the maxillary periosteum for a strong and stable fixation. |
| This often resulted in longer recovery time and noticeable scarring along the incision line. | Through a precise internal incision, there is no visible external scar, while also allowing improvement of the nasolabial angle at the same time. |
POINT 02 A Philtrum Line That Lasts Over Time
Instead of cutting and suturing the skin externally, we create an internal nasal incision and securely triple-fix the *orbicularis oris muscle to the maxillary periosteum. This delivers a long-lasting philtrum shortening effect without the scar widening over time.
- *What is Orbicularis oris:
- A circular muscle that encircles the lips.
POINT 03 The Ideal 1:2 Ratio for a Beautifully Balanced Face
At WOORI Plastic Surgery, philtrum reduction is designed to achieve the ideal proportion between the nose, lips, and chin, ensuring perfect balance and harmony with your facial profile.
Philtrum Reduction Recommended for:
- When a long philtrum makes the midface look elongated
- When a long philtrum causes an older or tired look
- When facial balance is disrupted after rhinoplasty
- When a drooping philtrum pulls the lip corners downward
More Dimension When Paired with Philtrum Reduction!
| Combination | Effect |
|---|---|
| Alar reduction, tip refinement, or columella reshaping | When combined with alar reduction, tip refinement, or columella reshaping, it enhances harmony between the nose and the philtrum for a more balanced profile. |
| Lip corner lift and lip fillers | A long philtrum and thin lips can affect facial balance. Philtrum reduction, a lip corner lift, and lip fillers together help create a more defined and dimensional facial contour. |
