Nasolabial Fold Fillers
With age and natural loss of collagen, the appearance of nasolabial folds, more commonly referred to as laugh lines, are inevitable. Everyone has these wrinkles to some degree, but they tend to get deeper with age and other factors. However, that’s not to say you can’t do anything about them! Accredited nurse Zayra offers a simple solution within reach that rejuvenates your skin and helps you achieve a more youthful appearance. While numerous types of wrinkle therapies are available, dermal fillers are the first line of treatment.
Candidates
Nasolabial fold fillers are one of the most prominent choices amongst patients to reduce signs of sagging in the nasolabial region. While this treatment caters to a broad audience, some ideal candidates for nasolabial fold fillers include:
- Adults who may be bothered by the prominence of their nasolabial folds
- Individuals who have a clear medical history and maintain an overall healthy lifestyle
- Individuals who ideally don’t smoke
- Individuals who have realistic expectations for the treatment
What to Expect
Before the treatment, patients are encouraged to attend a pre-treatment consultation, allowing Zayra to thoroughly assess their nasolabial folds and determine whether this treatment is the appropriate aesthetic solution for them. The pre-treatment consultation is also a great time to raise any concerns regarding this treatment and discuss your long-term aesthetic goals. Once you’re satisfied, Zayra will devise a bespoke treatment plan that will consider your unique facial structure and associated issues.
Before getting under the needle, she starts by cleansing the nasolabial folds using an antiseptic solution and applying a numbing cream to ensure you remain comfortable throughout the process. Zayra follows a strategic plan and injects the nasolabial fold filler at specific depths that determine the region’s support, structure, and volume.
Recovery
Since nasolabial fold fillers are minimally invasive and non-surgical, you can expect to be back on your feet in no time! You may experience a few side effects. However, rest assured that these are mild, temporary, and subside within a few hours. Some common symptoms that patients report include:
- Bruising
- Redness
- Itchiness
- Swelling
- Tenderness
The good news is that you can use painkillers or cold compresses as needed or directed to reduce the mild discomfort. Zayra also discourages her patients from massaging or touching the treated areas needlessly for at least six hours. It’s also advisable to avoid strenuous activities and alcohol intake for a few days for better results.
Results / Longevity
Nasolabial fold fillers have almost instantaneous results; however, you should ideally wait around two to three weeks to fully appreciate your new, youthful look. Results can last anywhere between one to two years, and this time frame depends on several factors, including age, the injection site’s condition, and the level of aftercare.
