Hi, I have a really long philtrum (20mm) and kinda shorter then average nose (48mm) which looks even shorter as a tip is upturned (44mm to the tip) so it fucks nose-to-philtrum ratio and also I’m recessed so either my chin or mandible is recessed but I suppose it’s vertical maxilla excess so that’s why both jaws are recessed as well as chin.

I’m curious why my nose is shorter then average when philtrum is longer and how those two are correlated as in most cases I see recessed people have long noses but not wise-verse.

And also I’m interested what is the best fix in my case? Chin implant or surgery, full arch intrussion with tads to compress alveolar bone (and if anyone know is intrussion of an upper arch causes ccw rotation), maxillary impaction? Lip lift? Nose lengthening?

And also I’m curious if stuff like impaction or intrusion or nose lengthening might fuck my proportions if ipd, midface ratios and etc like eyes to mouth, eyes to nose are idel rn?

Solution
lip lift but if you're thinking to get a rhinoplasty for some reason try to get the procedures done together or in correct order as the incision will most likely be made under your alar base

mark solution
Yeah i know it would shorten the philtrum by making the lip fuller but I’m more interested in lifting the whole mouth upper, so I mean physically shortening distance between upper lip and nose somehow
i think lip lift would be the only option, sadly other than that i doubt you can shorten the distance between your nose and lip
mark as solution

I mean, it could only visually shorten the philtrum but distance to the mouth would be the same
