Here is a dirty but effective way to manipulate your philtrum height (you can increase it or decrease it).
These 2 examples got Botox in their chin muscle (mentalis muscle) to correct chin dimpling.
Look at how their philtrum height has changed.
Facts:
- Some people have an overactive chin (mentalis) muscle which can cause dimpling of the chin. This dimpling pushes the lips upward creating the illusion of a shorter philtrum.
- More active mentalis muscle = lower philtrum height
- Less active mentalis muscle = higher philtrum height
1. If you want to DECREASE your philtrum..:
- You need to make your mentalis muscle STRONGER.
- By increasing the mentalis muscle, some people may get a downturned mouth. In that case, one may need botox in the "depressor anguli oris" muscle
- By increasing the mentalis muscle, some may get chin dimpling and some fillers/implant may be needed.
- Will it work for you? Just contract your chin muscle and if you notice that it pushes up your lips upward and reduces your philtrum's height then yes it will work
2. If you want to INCREASE your philtrum..:
- You need to make your mentalis muscle WEAKER. Simply get botox injection in your mentalis.
- Will it work for you? Just stretch your chin muscle and if you notice that it pushes down your lips and increases your philtrum's height then yes it will work
