Nasolabial folds

Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines or laugh lines, are one of the most common signs of skin ageing process . Facial movements, such as smiling and laughing, cause our skin to crease and fold. With age, we start to lose volume under our skin and its natural production of collagen slows, causing the skin to start sagging. As a result, the creases that occur as our face moves become permanent as the skin loses elasticity and is unable to bounce back.
However, laugh lines can easily be minimised with dermal fillers. Using only fillers from renowned manufacturers, our M1 Doctors re-introduce volume into the area around the cheeks and lips where volume loss has occured, smoothening the deep folds. Nasolabial fold injections typically take between 15 and 30 minutes. Results can be seen immediately and last up to 6 months.
Filler treatments for these folds are generally not painful. However, to ensure that you are comfortable, our filler products contain a local anaesthetic. We also offer a numbing cream that can be applied if you are especially worried about minor pain.
Nasolabial Fold lines are often treated alongside other facial wrinkles for an overall rejuvenating effect. These include Tear Troughs (deep lines under the eyes) and marionette lines (lines that form down from the lip to the chin). Dermal fillers can also help strengthen the face’s natural contours such as the jawline and the cheeks.
