Types of Nasolabial Folds
Genetic Nasolabial Folds
For some individuals, these folds are a hereditary trait that defines facial features from a young age.
Age-Related Nasolabial Folds
With advancing age, the skin loses collagen and elasticity, causing these folds to become deeper and more visible.
Factors Contributing to Nasolabial Folds
Ageing
Natural ageing processes lead to decreased skin elasticity and deeper facial creases.
Genetics
Genetic predisposition plays a significant role in the development and depth of nasolabial folds.
Sun Exposure
UV radiation accelerates skin ageing, contributing to the early appearance of nasolabial folds.
Lifestyle Factors
Smoking, poor nutrition, and insufficient hydration adversely affect skin health, potentially deepening nasolabial folds.
Facial Muscle Activity
Frequent smiling or frowning can deepen these folds over time due to repeated muscle usage.
Effective Natural and Medical Strategies to Address Nasolabial Folds
Dermal Fillers
Injectable fillers can add volume beneath the skin, smoothing out nasolabial folds and restoring a youthful appearance.
Facelift Surgery
A surgical approach to reduce the appearance of deep nasolabial folds, tightening the skin and repositioning underlying tissues.
Laser Resurfacing
This treatment uses concentrated light beams to stimulate collagen production, improving skin texture and reducing fold depth.
Radiofrequency (RF) Therapy
RF treatments help tighten the skin and promote collagen production, lessening the appearance of nasolabial folds.
High-Quality Skincare
Utilising products with hyaluronic acid, retinoids, and vitamin C can improve skin hydration and firmness, mitigating the depth of nasolabial folds.
Sun Protection
Daily use of sunscreen and protective clothing can prevent further skin damage and the deepening of facial folds.
