What Causes Nasolabial Folds?
These folds are normal and everyone has them. However, they only become a problem when they start deepening or sagging with age. They are caused by a few factors such as:
- Collagen loss
- Exposure to sun
- Fat loss
These three factors are the main causes of these lines as overtime they deepen these lines. Fat loss causes the folds to sag from the skin.

Frequently asked QUESTIONS naso labial folds
If your folds are also deep then there is something you can do about it. The least invasive and best treatment we offer for these folds are dermal fillers.
Now, do remember that fillers are not done to eliminate the lines. They will significantly reduce the appearance of the lines and help the skin next to this area look more youthful.
The filler will be injected on your folds to achieve the reduced appearance of lines, help the skin look fuller and plumper, and make you look ten years younger.
Depending on the quality of the area you may also be a suitable candidate for PDO threads which can be used to not only lift the folds but to stimulate collagen production and dermal strength to delay further aging and heaviness here.
This is one of the least painful treatments available. First, topical anaesthesia will be applied to the area so that the area is numb. After that, the injection will be applied to the required areas and you are done!
The filler is just an injection. It will only take 15 to 20 minutes for this procedure. The nurse will have to wait for the anaesthesia to numb the skin and then they will apply the injection. This will take no more than 15 minutes so the procedure is extremely quick and painless.
There are no side effects to this treatment. Once the anaesthesia has subsided you may experience:
· Tenderness at the injection site
These are not side effects but normal things you can expect after an injection. They will go away as the area heals.
The filler can last anywhere from a year to eighteen months. This depends on the individual and their skin. However, you can see the results of this treatment right after your session!
