Why do we have an indent on our upper lip?


Question:


Answers:
So our snot has somewhere to collect when our nose runs.
To store mucus.I think!
The philtrum, also known as the infranasal depression, is the vertical groove in the upper lip, formed where the nasomedial and maxillary processes meet during embryonic development.

The philtrum allows humans to express a much larger range of lip motions than would otherwise be possible, which enhances vocal and non-verbal communication.
If your religious then when ou were in the womb Angels told you a secret and they pressed your lip and made an indent...or at least that's what I believe
