The nasolabial fold is the line that runs from the side of your nose to the corners of your mouth. Due to hereditary factors, the condition of the skin and age, the line can become deeper. The groove or wrinkle that develops, gives an unnecessarily tired expression, sometimes even at a young age. A deep nasolabial fold can occur in both men and women.

Nasolabial fold treatment with fillers

The wrinkle at the nasolabial fold can be treated safely using fillers. The groove is often caused by a loosening of the cheeks. Loss of volume causes the cheeks to ‘hang’ somewhat from the cheekbones, deepening the groove. In addition, it’s possible to fill the nasolabial fold itself. Fillers give an increase in volume. The nasolabial fold will disappear.

The clinic uses safe, temporary fillers from top brands, for example:

• Radiesse, also known as ‘liquid facelift’
• Sculptra
• Hyaluronic acid based fillers, such as Juvéderm, Restylane

Based on the depth of the wrinkle and the skin structure, the cosmetic doctor will prepare a customized treatment plan. Not only the wrinkle along the mouth is considered, but the entire face.
