I got philtrum dimple surgery! I wanted my philtrum to look just a little shorter, but I was worried about scarring from philtrum reduction, so I chose philtrum dimple surgery instead! About three places seemed to be well known for it, and this plastic surgery clinic had a lot of reviews, so I went in for a consultation. Maybe because it was the January school-break season, I couldn’t get a consultation appointment right away, so I visited about 2 weeks later. They showed me lots of review photos, and I liked that it was done with a laser in a way that doesn’t leave an external scar, so I decided to have the procedure the same day. Overall, I’m satisfied with the result. My philtrum wasn’t especially long to begin with, but it feels like my lips curl inward less, and my philtrum looks slightly concave, making my impression look more natural. The photos are from before the procedure and day 7. There was a slight burning smell during the procedure, but it wasn’t very uncomfortable, and the procedure time was short too. The swelling went down a lot after about a week, and I had almost no pain, so I didn’t take any medication separately. For the first 2–3 days, eating was a little uncomfortable, and there was some tightness when I smiled, but it didn’t significantly interfere with daily life. As the swelling went down, the concave look settled in naturally, so the result wasn’t excessive. The price was higher than I expected, but overall, I’m satisfied for the cost 😊
