As we get older, certain areas of our face begin to showcase prominent signs of ageing. Laugh or smile lines – also known as nasolabial folds that occur between the nose and the lower mouth – are distinct creases that make us appear noticeably older.
In addition, factors such as sun exposure, smoking and weight loss can worsen the appearance of these lines and wrinkles, resulting in a less youthful appearance.
The good news is, dermal fillers are a fantastic non-surgical option that smooth nasolabial folds by restoring lost volume and producing firmer, younger-looking skin. Dermal fillers use a naturally-occurring substance to revolumise and hydrate the area, removing ageing lines and creases for a healthy and refreshed look.
Our team of qualified medical doctors are highly experienced in the field of cosmetic injectables. By discussing your objectives with you beforehand, we can ensure you achieve the look you’re after, with natural results you’ll love.
Here’s what to expect when you attend one of our state-of-the-art Sydney clinics for your nasolabial fold filler treatment.
- Following an initial assessment, we’ll cleanse your skin and apply a numbing agent to help you feel relaxed and comfortable throughout your session.
- Your doctor will then administer the dermal filler injections to restore lost volume in the injected area, addressing smile lines and creases. To ensure the most natural results, we inject the filler substance gradually and can also use a dissolving enzyme to reverse the effects if you’re not entirely satisfied.
- Your dermal filler treatment is complete! Most sessions don’t exceed 30 minutes and you can return to work and normal activities straight afterwards.
Nasolabial fold fillers are extremely effective at removing unwanted laugh lines and creases in the face that make us appear older.
Dermal fillers to address nasolabial folds offer a range of benefits, including:
- Restoring volume to the skin by increasing collagen
- Smoothing and filling in nasolabial folds
- Removing creases and wrinkles in a natural way
- Achieving a more youthful appearance without the cost, downtime and risk of surgery
Nasolabial Fold Fillers: Frequently Asked Questions
Nasolabial folds or laugh lines develop due to a loss of skin volume that results in sagging of skin tissue. By restoring this lost volume and drawing moisture to the area, nasal fold fillers smooth out deep lines and hollows for a rejuvenated appearance.
Dermal filler injections contain a naturally-occurring protein found in your body – called hyaluronic acid – which is responsible for maintaining moisture levels in your skin and tissues. As the name suggests, dermal fillers ‘fill in’ lines and wrinkles to reduce their appearance while creating a volumised effect that reverses signs of ageing.
While the vast majority of patients are over the moon with their results, we understand that some clients will have concerns about what happens if they’re not entirely happy.
One of the advantages of dermal fillers is the fact that we can reverse the results. This involves the use of an enzyme that dissolves the filler substance, restoring the treated area to its original appearance.
It’s also worth bearing in mind that the effects of dermal fillers are temporary.
Fillers are a safe and proven treatment, and any side effects are minor and temporary. After your treatment, some patients may notice bruising, redness, swelling or lumpiness in the injected area – this is normal and will clear up naturally within a few days.
Nasolabial fold fillers are a highly effective and non-invasive cosmetic procedure for those looking to address laugh lines and creases as a result of ageing.
Before your appointment, one of our medical experts will conduct an assessment of your skin to establish whether dermal fillers are the right course of treatment for your particular needs.
In some cases, we’ll recommend additional treatment options to help you achieve the results you desire, such as if you have severe skin laxity or other conditions.
At Medical Aesthetics 360°, we take a personalised approach to every patient, so you can be sure of a customised treatment plan that’s carefully tailored to your needs and delivers optimal results.
Fillers may not be the best option for you if:
- You’re under 18 years of age
- You have underlying health conditions
- You’re currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- You have a history of nerve or bleeding disorders
- You have a skin disorder
Finally, it’s important to be realistic about the results that can be achieved from your nasolabial fold fillers. Our highly-trained medical staff will be happy to chat to you about the kind of results you can expect, based on your particular skin condition.
You’ll see immediate results from your nasolabial fold filler treatment, but these will be optimal after a few weeks, when any minor swelling or bruising has subsided.
Dermal filler results can last from 9 to 18 months, depending on the type of filler and the way your body metabolises the ingredients. As the effects of dermal fillers are temporary, you may need to come back for top-up treatments once signs of ageing reappear, in order to maintain optimal results.
After your session, your doctor will talk you through anything you need to be aware of in order to avoid issues and keep your skin looking and feeling its best.
There are a few things you should be mindful of after your session, such as:
- Avoiding direct sun exposure
- Not drinking alcohol
- Avoiding exposure to very hot temperatures, e.g. sauna
- Not engaging in strenuous exercise for 24 hours
- Taking care not to pick, rub or massage the treated area
- Minimising movement of the treated area
If you notice any unusual symptoms, be sure to contact us immediately so our medical experts can advise you on what to do.
For the majority of patients, fillers involve slight discomfort rather than pain. You may feel a slight pinching sensation when the injection is applied and a low level of stinging as the filler is injected.
We’ll apply a numbing cream to minimise sensation in the treated area and use very tiny needles to reduce pain during the session.
While you may feel a small degree of discomfort after your treatment, this can be easily addressed using home remedies such as ice packs and standard pain medication.
If you’re concerned or anxious about your nasolabial fold filler treatment, chat to our friendly team for more information on what the treatment involves, so you can feel relaxed and confident when you attend.
Our highly personalised level of service means that we’ll tailor a treatment plan to suit your specific needs, skin concerns, and desired results. As a result, treatment pricing will vary from patient to patient.
During your initial consultation, one of our trained doctors will conduct an assessment of your skin, discuss your situation, and develop a customised plan for your treatment. This will include a detailed breakdown of costs, timeframes and what to expect.
