Naso-Labial Folds (Nose to Mouth lines)

At Face Hub our dedicated teams of highly trained facial aesthetic medical practitioners can beautifully enhance the shape of your face with dermal fillers. We can soften nose-to-mouth lines to give you a more youthful and fresher appearance using Juvederm dermal filler. Naso-Labial Folds are lines or wrinkles that appear on the inner cheek going from your nose to your mouth. Most people have these but they usually get deeper or more obvious as we age. Once collagen and elastin start to decrease in the body it makes the skin become saggy or loose. There are other factors that can make these folds more severe such as:

Chronic sun exposure
Fluctuation in weight
Sleeping on your side
Smoking

There are a number of treatments that can help reduce these lines but dermal filler is usually the first and most common option. Dermal filler are compounds that can be injected into certain areas of the body to make it look plumper and more youthful. It smooths the skin to reduce signs of ageing such as wrinkles. Here at Face Hub, we use the best dermal filler on the market known as Juvederm.

An anaesthetic cream can be applied to the injection site for 20 minutes. The filler is then injected into precise locations before being massaged to smoothen the dermal filler. You will have a mirror throughout the treatment to see the results immediately. Treatment to soften the naso-labial fold lines takes on average 30 minutes.

Once the treatment has been completed you will see the results instantly and once any swelling has gone down you will be able to see the final results. As this is not a permanent treatment your body will eventually dissolve the dermal fillers so the results usually last between 6 and 18 months before you need a top up again.

Dermal fillers are unsuitable for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age do nasolabial folds appear?

The age in which naso labial fold starts to appear depends on the person. In most cases they start to appear very slightly in our late twenties and get worse with age. A few other factors such as sun exposure, smoking and weight fluctuation can make these folds more obvious.

How long do fillers last in nasolabial folds?

Here at Face Hub Facial Aesthetics, we use Juvederm dermal filler which is one of the best on the market. This filler slowly metabolizes in the body over time but it can last between 6 and 18 months in most clients

What is the best treatment for nasolabial folds?

Unfortunately, there are not many natural things we can do to stop the effects of aging which is why dermal filler is known as the best treatment to help with naso labial folds. It is a non-invasive procedure which gives great plumping and smooth results which are temporary so if the client is unhappy, they can get the filler dissolved or it will naturally fade itself.

Is the procedure painful?

Patients may feel a little bit of discomfort but there is not bad pain as the practitioner will apply a topical numbing cream on the area to reduce any pain they may feel. They will also use ultra-fine needles to prevent any discomfort during the treatment.

What is the satisfaction rate?

The satisfaction rate of filler in naso labial folds is very high as most of the patients who get it done say they see a drastic improvement. Dermal filler also causes the natural production of collagen in the body to improve which can make the results look better and last longer.
