Are you thinking of blurring your nasolabial folds?
The nasolabial folds start at the sides of the nose, reach the corner of the lips... and continue into the bitterness folds, often giving a tired, marked, even sad appearance.
In question ? Proportions that change gradually - but surely - with age, a skin mattress that sags and subcutaneous fat that moves to end up in the fixed central part of the face and the oval of the face.
Results ? With this downward movement linked to gravity, the slackening of the tissues, the decrease in elastin and collagen fibers (the secret of skin firmness), the volumes descend and the features become hollow.
This fall meets resistance: the muscles around the lips. This is where these unscrupulous - and unsightly - furrows are formed.
The first wrinkles appear in the nasolabial fold around your forties.
The good solution to erase them discreetly and erase these wrinkles, are the injections of filling with hyaluronic acid, carried out by our cosmetic surgeon in Marseille, Christophe Desouches.
The daily approach
Regular work on the muscles of the face corrects and significantly reduces wrinkles due to the appearance of the nasolabial fold.
Repeated daily facial gymnastic exercises will have a beneficial effect on several levels. They allow :
- to redraw the equilateral triangle formed by the chin, nose and cheekbones, which reduces the formation of bitterness lines
- to fix more firmly the movable layer of fat which is important at the level of the cheeks
- prevent fat and skin from unwinding on the orbicularis muscle of the mouth, which forms the framework of the lips, and thus limit the formation of the nasolabial fold
The medical approach
Hyaluronic acid is a highly hydrophilic product, meaning it attracts water and thus contributes to skin hydration. Used as a filler, it is a fully tolerated and resorbable implant.
The injection of hyaluronic acid is the most effective treatment for filling and removing smile lines and nasolabial folds.
The final result is visible after 3 to 4 days and lasts between 6 and 12 months. This is the time needed for the product to be fully absorbed.
The injection naturally corrects the aged and tired appearance caused by the hollows in the nasolabial folds. Hyaluronic acid does not affect muscle mobility in any way. The natural expression of the face remains.
