Philtrum Indentation Surgery: Incisional or Non-Incisional Philtrum Groove Augmentation

Philtrum Indentation Surgery: Incisional or Non-Incisional Philtrum Groove Augmentation

Hello.

I am Song Sang-hoon,

Chief Director of Goldendiamant Seoul Plastic Surgery.

Philtrum Indentation Surgery: Incisional or Non-Incisional Philtrum Groove Augmentation

The philtrum, located between the mouth and nose,

forms the center of the face.


Even a small change can alter the entire impression.

For over 20 years, I have focused on perioral plastic surgery,

and through creating a contoured and distinct philtrum,

I have observed many individuals whose overall impression became more three-dimensional.

The ‘philtrum’ is a small yet delicate area located at the center of the face,

playing a crucial role in completing a three-dimensional face.

A flat and indistinct philtrum line

can make the midface appear longer and the overall impression dull, blurring the boundary between the lips and nose, which can detract from the overall harmony of the facial lines.

To address such a flat philtrum,

the surgery that adds natural and delicate contours to enhance three-dimensionality is precisely ‘philtrum indentation surgery’.

Today, I will explain in detail about

the incisional or non-incisional philtrum indentation surgery

offered at Goldendiamant Plastic Surgery, which leads to a refined and vibrant impression.

The first is the incisional method of philtrum indentation surgery, Goldendiamant C-Curl Philtrum Indentation Surgery.

Goldendiamant’s unique

C-Curl Philtrum Indentation Surgery

is a procedure I personally developed after extensive research and expertise.


It does not involve creating an unnatural philtrum groove through dermal grafting or muscle manipulation,

but rather uses Goldendiamant’s unique quadruple-composite special suturing technique

to create a natural C-curl line in the philtrum while also slightly reducing its length.

The surgery takes 1-2 hours,

and the sutures are removed within 5-7 days.


In addition to creating a vibrant and distinct impression,

it is also effective for philtrum reduction,
making it a recommended surgery for those who wish to achieve a sophisticated, youthful image.

The second is the non-incisional method of philtrum indentation surgery, Goldendiamant Philtrum Groove Dimpleplasty.

Non-incisional philtrum indentation surgery,

Philtrum Groove Dimpleplasty,

is a surgical method that creates a philtrum groove through a partial incision inside the mouth.


It proceeds on the same principle as dimple creation surgery on the face,

with no visible external scars, and the philtrum groove can be created quickly in about 30 minutes.
Since it is possible to return to daily life immediately after surgery,
it is recommended for those who wish to achieve a three-dimensional facial balance but were concerned about recovery time.

The philtrum groove can be the core of the lips.


A beautiful lip is completed when the two philtrum ridges and the central depressed philtrum groove naturally harmonize with the upper lip line.

If the philtrum line is flat and indistinct,

the face may appear larger or the philtrum may seem longer,

thus philtrum indentation surgery can be considered.

When considering philtrum groove augmentation,

the most important aspect to consider is

whether the depth and length of the philtrum groove can be delicately custom-designed to suit your face shape and mouth line.

At Goldendiamant Plastic Surgery,


from consultation to 1:1 custom design and even the surgery itself, I, the chief director, am personally involved,

‘performing philtrum indentation surgery tailored to the client’s image and needs.’
