I'm 21 with nasolabial folds, I'm looking for a permanent solution?

Question

I don't know what happend in these 4 years but I feel like there is absolutely no support in my cheeks. I have deep naso folds and a heavy lower face what can I do? I'm not into fillers I'm looking for a permanent solution. I've added some pictures. I have hollow eyes as well so me aging isn't going very gracefully :)

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting,  and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer

Randal Haworth, MD, FACS · Answer

You could do permanent fillers of lifting (mid-facelift). Regardless of what type of facelift is performed, none are 100% effective at treating 100% of the nasolabial folds. Absolutely no nasolabial fold is not natural. What you are aiming for is to make the nasolabial fold more shallow and confined to 1/3 of its current length.

I hope this helps,
best of luck !
