Nasolabial Fold Treatment

The nasolabial fold is the crease around your nose and mouth that appears when you smile, also referred to as smile lines. As the skin loses elasticity and volume with age, these creases can become more pronounced. Many people have what looks like parentheses around their mouth from their nasolabial folds. At LL Aesthetics, we provide effective nasolabial fold treatment with facial filler injections at our facility in Miami Beach, FL.

The facial skin loses collagen, hyaluronic acid, elastin and fat as you get older. These changes allow it to wrinkle and crease with muscle movement – your many smiles over the decades create the smile lines along your nasolabial folds around your mouth. To combat the lost volume and elasticity in the skin, dermal fillers can be used to plump the lower cheeks under the nasolabial folds. This can smooth the smile lines and rejuvenate the area around the mouth and jowls for a more youthful appearance.

Smile Lines Filler Injections

There are a few different options available for adding volume to smooth nasolabial folds. Hyaluronic acid is one of the favorite options to quickly reduce smile lines. Restylane® has a few different formulas that offer varying levels of treatment for mild to severe nasolabial folds. Another option is Radiesse®, which uses calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHa) to plump under the smile lines, then stimulates collagen production for lasting improvement to the skin. Autologous fat injections can also be used to add volume under the skin and decrease the appearance of smile lines.

If you have smile lines and other facial wrinkles, dermal fillers and neuromodulator injections can help smooth imperfections. We also offer skin treatments such as microneedling and chemical peels that can improve the overall appearance of your facial skin.

If you have pronounced nasolabial folds, there are many treatments that can give you a more youthful appearance. Most dermal filler injections can be performed in less than a half hour and they do not require any recovery or downtime. To learn more about smile lines treatment, contact our team at LL Aesthetics.
