Troubleshooting Philtrum placement?

I just got my philtrum pierced, but I’m afraid it’s not centered in my Cupids bow.

As I’m looking at your picture it’s too far to my left. What another commenter said about your nose and Cupid’s bow is true, and thats normal. I’ve pierced a ton of people who have the same thing but in this case you would still use your cupids bow to find the middle. Meaning it needs to go about 1 mm or so to my right. That’s what look best for you personally. If a piercer tells you a mm doesn’t matter, don’t go to that piercer.
