What are Nasolabial Folds?
Nasolabial folds (also known as smile lines or laugh lines) are creases in your skin extending from both sides of your nose to the corners of your mouth. As we age, the creases can become prominent and permanent especially if you smoke, or if you don’t wear SPF to protect your skin from the sun, and with weight loss or weight gain.
With ageing the amount of collagen and elastin in the skin reduces and our skin starts to sag causing wrinkles to form that run from the nose down to the mouth giving the face an ageing effect.
Dermal fillers can reduce their appearance by filling in these lines and plumping up the cheeks. This non-invasive treatment, which uses a natural substance made of Hyaluronic Acid, is quick and safe, and results can be seen immediately. Your face will instantly look fresher and younger.

Nasolabial Fold Filler FAQs
Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines or laugh lines, are the lines that run from the corners of the nose to the corners of the mouth. These folds are a natural part of the aging process and can become more pronounced over time. Injecting dermal fillers can help plump up the skin and fill in the folds. This is a non-invasive procedure that can provide immediate results.
Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines, can be influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.
While genetics may play a role in the formation of nasolabial folds, it is not the only factor. Other contributing factors include sun exposure, smoking, repetitive facial expressions, and natural aging processes.
Collagen, a protein that helps to keep skin firm and elastic, naturally decreases with age. As a result, skin can become thinner and less resilient, leading to the formation of wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds.
In some cases, individuals may be genetically predisposed to having more prominent nasolabial folds due to the structure of their facial bones and fat pads. However, the extent to which genetics play a role can vary widely from person to person.
The longevity of dermal fillers in the nasolabial folds can vary depending on several factors, including the type of filler used, the amount of filler injected, and an individual’s metabolism.
Generally, hyaluronic acid fillers last between 6-18 months.
It’s important to note that fillers are not permanent, and results will gradually fade over time. Maintenance treatments may be necessary to maintain the results. The exact frequency of maintenance treatments will depend on the individual and their response to the initial treatment.
The cost of dermal fillers for smile lines can vary depending on several factors, including the type of filler used and the amount of filler required. Check out our price-list to find out more on the cost of our treatments.
Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines or laugh lines, are natural wrinkles that appear on the face as a result of a combination of factors, including:
Natural aging process: As we age, the skin loses its elasticity and the production of collagen and elastin decreases. This can cause the skin to become thinner and less plump, resulting in wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds.
Repetitive facial expressions: Repeatedly smiling, laughing, or frowning can cause the skin to fold and crease over time, leading to the formation of nasolabial folds.
Sun exposure: Ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can cause damage to the skin, leading to premature aging, wrinkles, and folds.
Genetics: The structure of the face, including the thickness of skin and underlying facial bones, can be determined by genetics, which may influence the development of nasolabial folds.
Lifestyle factors: Smoking, alcohol consumption, and poor diet can also contribute to the development of wrinkles and folds, including nasolabial folds.
The amount of filler used for nasolabial folds depends on several factors, including the severity of the folds, the desired outcome, and the type of filler being used.
As a general guideline, the amount of filler used for nasolabial folds can range from 0.5ml to 1.5ml per side. However, this can vary depending on the individual and the injector’s technique.
Depending on the areas treated, and the metabolism rate of the patient, nasolabial fold fillers can last from 6-12 months. The Hyaluronic Acid is broken down by the body so repeat treatments will be necessary if you wish to maintain a specific look.
