Am I Too Young for Nasiolabial Fillers? ~ 18 Years Old
My nasiolabial folds have been bugging me for a long time and I've been thinking about this for awhile. Also, my nasiolabial folds aren't that bad, they could be much worse - in this case, will the fillers have a longer effect on me? Thank you very much, Luca

Filler for the nasolabial folds
In general, filler in that area lasts 6-7 months on average. 18 is quite young to be considering filler for that area, but each patient has their own individual circumstances. Perlane or Radiesse generally work fantastic for the nasolabial folds. I would recommend a consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon, plastic surgeon, or dermatologist. He/she will be able to examine you and provide with advice based on your individual needs. I hope this helps, and best of luck to you.

You should consider posting photo's of what you are referring to for better assessment, as it's very difficult to answer this question with no way to see you in person or view areas of concern.

Nasolabial fillers for smile lines
Dear Luca,
It would be best to come in for an exam and see what your overall goals are
Smile lines are natural and fillers help improve them
18 is pretty young, and everyone is different, so the best thing to do is to see a specialist where all of your questions can be answered
Best regards,
Nima Shemirani

Filler for nasolabial fold in 18 year old is fine
There is no problem with getting fillers at age 18. I would make sure that it's not a problem with your cheeks needing filler before filling the nasolabial folds. Its not a permanent solution, so if you don't like it or can't afford further treatments you will go back to baseline in about 9 - 12 months.

Filler at 18 years old
Luca, You sound very young to have folds that are caused by aging but you might have folds as a facial feature because of your facial structure. If you are very unhappy with them you should talk to someone about fixing them but you must understand why they are there and not fix them for the wrong reasons. Fillers are rather benign and you might only need a very small amount. Unfortunately they will not last longer because your problem is less severe. However , you should need a lot less

Too Young for NLF line fillers
According to the FDA, many fillers are approved to use on people 18 and over (like Juvederm, Restylane, and others). That being said, you are very young, so it would be best to meet with a board-certified physician about your needs and the issues you perceive. Following proper skincare, wearing daily sunscreen, and being healthy will all help in general. But fillers are approved to use on people 18 and over, it will just be a matter of what specific needs you have and what you are seeing.

It is all about aesthetics.
A number of specialists provide very nice care for this issue. It is best to look for a doctor who is in the so-called aesthetic core: Dermatology, oculoplastic surgery, facial plastic surgery, and general plastic surgery.
