Nasolabial Fold Treatment Esher, Surrey

Nasolabial folds, often referred to as smile lines or laugh lines, are the deep lines running from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. As we age, these lines can become more prominent due to the loss of collagen, volume, and skin elasticity. Nasolabial fold filler is a highly effective non-surgical treatment that restores volume, smooths out these lines, and provides a youthful, refreshed appearance.

What Are Nasolabial Folds Fillers and How Do They Work?

Nasolabial folds fillers are injectable treatments made from hyaluronic acid, a substance that naturally occurs in the skin and helps maintain hydration and volume. When injected into the nasolabial folds, the filler adds volume to the area, plumps the skin, and softens the appearance of these lines.

The treatment works by replenishing the lost volume and lifting the skin, smoothing out the deep creases that form around the nose and mouth. The result is a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance with natural-looking results that typically last 12 to 18 months. The procedure is quick, and the results are immediately visible, with minimal discomfort and downtime.

What to Expect During your Nasolabial Fold Filler Treatment

The nasolabial fold filler procedure takes around 30 minutes. It begins with a consultation to assess your facial features and understand your aesthetic goals. A topical numbing cream is applied to the area to ensure your comfort during treatment.

Once the area is numbed, the filler is injected into the targeted folds using a fine needle. The practitioner may gently massage the area to ensure the filler is evenly distributed and the result is smooth and natural. Most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, or tenderness post-treatment, but these side effects typically resolve within a few days. You can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure.
