What is the ideal philtrum shape?

[Deleted member 8846]

Everyone talks about philtrum length, but what is the ideal shape?

Sloped

Straight

Also, does the shape of the philtrum determine whether or not you are recessed? I've seen some people say sloping philtrums = more forward growth, but obviously it's not always ideal (atleast not imo) because if it's too sloped and protruding it will make you look ape faced.

Concave philtrum 13-15 mm.

doesnt matter much as long as its not to any extremes

concave is ideal for both men and women, but straight looks absolute shit on women but is acceptable on men.
