Philtrum is one of those things you DO NOT want to stand out, just like the nose, be harmonious that’s all.

You want a defined philtrum, you just don't want a particularly long one.
 
Please don’t tell me you have alcohol fetal syndrome JFL
 
Jks Phil trim doesn’t really matter at all unless it’s gigs long or extremely short like 10mm or below

You can only get away with these if your philtrum is on the short side.

O Pry for example has a short philtrum and defined ridges and it looks fine, although he’d look better with them less defined.

Piana on the other hand does not get away with having well defined ridges due to his philtrum being on the long side

”It only looks bad on Rich Piana because his philtrum is long“

His philtrum is long yes, but the strong ridges make the length stand out more. The reason is, it increases the perceived length of the philtrum due to the ridges being vertically placed rather than horizontally.

If you’re wondering what I mean, look at these two dresses. The right one makes the woman appear taller while the horizontal ones make her appear wider

The exact same concept applies to the philtrum where strong vertical ridges increase the perceived length of the philtrum compared to less pronounced ridges

Disagree. A non-defined philtrum just looks ugly to me.

defined philtrum is an universally ideal trait, non-defined philtrum looks inbred
