What is philtrum in tagalog?

The direct translation of "philtrum" in Tagalog is "luklukan ng labi". This literally means "seat of the lip", referring to the vertical groove between the base of the nose and the upper lip.

However, in everyday conversation, it's more common to simply use the English word "philtrum" or the Tagalog word "lunga" which means "groove" or "furrow".

So, you can use any of these depending on the context and your audience.
