Philtrum reduction in Korea is surgery that shortens or reshapes the space between the nose and upper lip. The appropriate approach depends on facial anatomy and treatment goals.
Available options include medial philtrum reduction (subnasal or intranasal), lateral reduction, philtrum groove creation, mouth corner lifting and lip reduction. These procedures address different concerns, from philtrum length to lip shape and mouth-corner position.
A surgeon should explain the proposed technique, scarring and recovery before treatment. Explore Plastic Surgery in Korea or ask Fornur about consultation options.
For non-surgical lip volume, see Dermal Fillers and the Korean Lip Filler Guide.
Discuss your treatment goals and preferred lip proportions. Disclose previous facial surgery, fillers, medicines and allergies. Confirm the surgical technique, incision and scarring risks. Ask about anaesthesia, total cost and postoperative reviews. Discuss recovery and travel timing with the surgeon.
Follow the surgeon's wound-care and medication instructions. Avoid unnecessary lip pressure and strenuous activity until cleared. Attend scheduled follow-up and suture-removal appointments. Seek medical advice for worsening pain, swelling, bleeding or fever.
Philtrum and lip surgery may involve visible scarring, swelling, bleeding, infection, asymmetry, altered sensation or dissatisfaction with the final result. Revision surgery is sometimes necessary. Philtrum reduction, mouth corner lifting and lip reduction address different concerns and should not be treated as interchangeable. Suitability, technique and recovery must be determined by a qualified surgeon. Results vary by individual anatomy and healing.
