Remove the small edge of the first layer

I always have on my prints (MK3) a small border on the first layer (see photo). It's very light but it bothers me for this project specifically. Is there a tip to remove this border? (thickness of the first layer? Fans? T°?...)
Thank you thank you in advance, I'm a bit stuck on this point

Try Elephants foot Compensation   (in the 'Print Settings>Advanced' Menu)

Elephants foot Compensation,settings in prusa slicer.

But also first layer to low,

bed to hot.

If you want to know how to remove it after printing, use a Ontbramers voor de kunststof industrie - Industriemespunt.nl

deburring tool

After several tests I managed to find the right parameters.
