With a filler treatment, the nasolabial folds can be softened for a fresher and softer appearance. Because these folds often arise due to volume loss in the midface, we always assess whether supporting the cheeks gives a more natural and harmonious result.
The result is immediately visible. Mild swelling or tenderness in the first few days is normal and usually subsides by itself. After about two weeks the final result is visible.
Suitable for
- Deeper folds from nose to corner of the mouth
- A tired or stern appearance around the mouth
- Volume loss in the cheeks
- A need for a softer, fresher face
Frequently asked questions
Questions about nasolabial fold
Why do you also look at my cheeks?
The nasolabial fold often deepens because the volume in the cheeks drops; the skin then 'sags' over the fold. By supporting the midface, you lift the cheek and the fold softens along with it. This way we treat the cause and not just the effect, for a more natural result.
Does the fold disappear completely?
Usually we aim to soften, not fully remove. A slight natural fold belongs to a lively face. Too much filler exactly in the fold can actually look unnatural. We aim for a subtle, harmonious improvement that suits your face.
