A WP (elatus labialis wingeulus) is more noticeable
when the lips are relaxed or even pursed,
and it seems to 'disappear,' in many cases,
when the lips are stretched, with a smile, for instance, like here,
On and below the Vermillion
Cupid's Bow tissue
of the lip is where the WP
is found.
Even though there is evidence of WPs in many of the World's ethnic populations currently
studied, it can be stated that no two WPs are exactly the same, so Dr. Winge classified
the 'variation spectrum' of them, from Class I to Class VI, with Class Zero meaning
that there is no physical attribute visually noticed (Smoothie).
Class I
- a barely-visible whisper of a Peak, partially spanning the lip's vertical length, as with:
Milla Jovovich
-seems to be just a simple differentiated linear embodiment, with almost no height along its
length, as seen with:
U. S. Supreme Court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson
Class III
-has a definite height along its length, as seen with:
Shaquille O'Neal
and
Danai Gurira.
Class IV
-A very easy to see demarcation with more noticeable height and width, as seen with:
Olivia Wang Zi-wen
Class V
-remarkably elevated and observable tissue with significant ‘globular’ dimensions, as seen with:
Antonio Banderas
Ne-yo
Michelle Ngonmo
Andre Leon Talley
and
Usain Bolt
Class VI
- of rich exceptional length and width with central and lateral indentations in its flesh, as seen
with:
Shabba Ranks
Rosie Huntington Whiteley
Cynthia Addai-Robinson
Bianca Censori
a South Sudanese Women,
and Supermodels
Tyra Banks.

According to this gif of normal embryonic facial morphogenesis, the WP area of the lip seems to be the
last area of the upper lip to take form.
Normally, the embryonic epithelium and mesenchyme of the upper right and left lip halves,
join surfaces and 'zipper on down' to 'close at the end,' at the lower edge
of the lip.
As this lip closure completes itself, if there are WP genetic pressures present, special
molecular construction mechanisms kick in to establish the surface and subsurface
foundational elements of the proto-Winge's Peak.
A better understanding is sought, through research, of the morphogenetic and molecular
signaling pathways, such as Bmp4, Fgf, Shh, and Wnt, seen in and around the early
stomodeum, which ultimately coordinate the differentiated tissue genesis and expressed
patterning seen with a WP.
Elatus labialis wingeulus, a genetically-dominant physical trait, is an 'appendage' over the
upper lip's middle tubercle frontal surface, and is a naturally-occurring, variably-manifested,
vertically-oriented, differentiated soft tissue, epithelial-emanating fold or ridge or
line or prominence, or otherwise, with subepithelial components (Winge's Peak
Connective Tissue Complex), which coincides with the midline of the face
and the interincisal and mid-sagittal lines, and runs down the middle of the
middle tubercle surface of the rostral upper lip, which may extend inferiorly
from the middle of the Vermillion Border's Cupid's Bow, down to the lower
edge of the lip, with or without significant elevation above the surrounding
lateral labial tissues, with or without the presence of differentiated vermillion
surface epithelium (Winge Epithelium) seen along the linear crest of the Peak,
and with or without the presence of an inferiorly-positioned procheilon.
