Shorten the nose-to-lip distance for a youthful look.
Anatomical Basis:
The subnasale region is the zone between the base of the nasal septum and the beginning of the upper lip (philtrum). It includes key anatomical landmarks such as the nasal spine, anterior nasal aperture, and philtral columns. With aging, this area shows:
-
Maxillary bone resorption,
-
Philtrum elongation,
-
Loss of upper lip support,
leading to a lengthened and aged facial appearance.
VolumaX Application – Clinical Insight:
VolumaX shortens the nose-to-lip distance by placing biocompatible bone graft into the sub-periosteal plane above the maxilla. This adds support beneath the nasal base, lifting the upper lip gently and restoring balance to the mid-lower face.
