Cheongdam Plastic Surgery: Hybrid Philtrum Reduction Surgery – Minimized Scars, Maximized Results

Hello.

I am Song Sang-hoon, the head director of

Golden Diamant Cheongdam Plastic Surgery.

Among the clients who visit our clinic hoping for philtrum reduction surgery,

many are particularly curious about ‘scars’ and ‘deformity’.

The philtrum is located in the center of the face and

is a highly mobile area,

so concerns about scars and the deformity of facial structures connected to the philtrum are only natural.

While the recommended philtrum reduction surgery method may vary for each individual due to their unique philtrum and lip structure,

Today, I will explain in detail the advantages of Cheongdam Plastic Surgery’s hybrid philtrum reduction surgery,

which simultaneously performs lateral and central philtrum reduction while reducing concerns about the most troubling scars and deformities,

and what types of individuals are suitable for this philtrum reduction.

Cheongdam Plastic Surgery’s hybrid philtrum reduction surgery is

a highly complete procedure that can solve philtrum reduction, lip volume, and lip sagging through a 2-step design and surgery.

First, a custom incision is made in the central area under the nose

to lift the center of the upper lip, performing the primary philtrum reduction.

Second, through lateral lip lift, it reduces the lateral philtrum while adjusting the volume and angle of the upper lip,

completing a voluminous, youthful lip line and philtrum.

The advantages of Golden Diamant’s hybrid philtrum reduction surgery are as follows:

1. Scars and swelling are less compared to conventional central philtrum reduction surgery.

Unlike typical central philtrum reduction surgery,

philtrum reduction is performed with a minimal incision in the central area under the nose (the starting point of the philtrum),

minimizing scars.

Lateral philtrum reduction is also performed along the lip line,

which has the advantage of making scars less noticeable.

2. Since the philtrum and lips are designed and operated on simultaneously, a complete change in the lip line image can be achieved.

Hybrid philtrum reduction

combines philtrum reduction surgery with lateral lip lift,

resulting in a harmonious lip balance tailored to the individual’s image,

achieving highly satisfactory results.

3. For those with a sunken columella that makes the alar appear droopy, the effect of columella correction can also be obtained.

The first step in hybrid philtrum reduction surgery is

central philtrum reduction under the nose,

which is a method of reducing the philtrum by lifting the center of the upper lip,

reducing the philtrum length by 4-8mm through a minimal incision.

This surgical method slightly lowers the columella during surgery,

allowing for both philtrum reduction and columella correction effects.

4. This philtrum reduction surgery can improve lip volume and upper lip curling.

Among the two stages of philtrum reduction surgery,

since upper lip lift is performed simultaneously,

for those who were concerned about upper lip sagging and lateral philtrum length,

we can create an ideal lip balance through harmonious philtrum reduction as well as upper lip volume.

However, a precise analysis through a 1:1 consultation with a lip surgery specialist is first required,

but for those whose columella is already significantly lowered or whose mouth corners are severely droopy (lip corner surgery may be added),

hybrid philtrum reduction surgery may not be suitable.

Cheongdam Plastic Surgery’s hybrid philtrum reduction surgery is

most recommended for those who have

‘a recessed columella’,

‘curling of the lateral lips’,

‘upward-turned mouth corners’, and

‘a long philtrum’.

It is the most recommended surgery.

Today, I explained about hybrid philtrum reduction surgery,

one of Cheongdam Plastic Surgery’s seven philtrum reduction procedures.

Philtrum reduction is not a surgery that uniformly cuts and sutures the philtrum,

but rather it is crucial to accurately identify the current lip structure and problems through direct consultation with a lip specialist

and proceed with the philtrum reduction surgery that is suitable for you.

If you have any further questions about Cheongdam Plastic Surgery’s philtrum reduction surgery,

please call our clinic.

We will kindly assist you with consultation and guidance.

Thank you.
