"The scar between Joaquin Phoenix's lip and nose is obvious. It practically had second billing in Gladiator. It has long been thought that Joaquin was born with a cleft lip and the scar is the result of corrective surgery. This is not so. Rather, Joaquin was born with the scar. The scar developed while Joaquin was in his mother's stomach. It is known as a microform cleft, a mild form of a cleft lip. A "microform cleft can appear as small as a little dent in the red part of the lip or look like a scar from the lip up to the nostril," as in Joaquin's case."

Most relevant medical experts believe its something called a microform cleft. This is basically a cleft that repaired itself in utero leaving either a small notch or a scar on the upper lip, up to the bottom of the nose.
Some people believe since his nostrils are asymetrical he was born with a complete unilateral cleft lip. Below is different possible explanation.
Its taken from a site called "Cleft Talk"
When a congenital cleft goes through the base of the nose, the nostril is
flattened. When there is a complete unilateral cleft lip, only one
nostril is flattened, creating an asymetrical appearance. Often times after repair, there is a
more symmetrical look if one looks directly at the face, but if the head
is tilted back, the asymmetry of the two nostrils is still apparent. Not
ugly nor unacceptable by any means... just not as symmetrical as they would
otherwise. In certain photos the actor's one nostril is flatter than the other.
