I have very visible nasolabial folds that can't be covered with make-up. The lines are very visible even when I'm not smiling or moving my mouth. I thought of getting radiesse but I do not like the idea of getting some type of gel injected in my face. I prefer something that your body produces, not something like gel...Are there any other options?
Answer: Sculptra is your own Collagen Hi Lala. If you want a product that is very natural, consider Sculptra injections. Sculptra is a fine particle injected with saline solution and it works by stimulating the production of your own collagen. For this reason it has an extremely natural appearance and lasts up to 2 years. For examples of our before and after photos for Los Angeles Sculptra patients, click on the link below.

Answer: Morpheus 8 Hi @Lalalouo. I recommend Morpheus 8. Morpheus8 is a non-surgical treatment for full body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction of stubborn areas. It uses minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to penetrate the skin deeper than other microneedling devices, triggering the skin’s natural healing response to promote skin tightening and lifting. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Answer: Facial Contouring with Fillers, Nasolabial Folds I find that "large" folds really need fillers placed in the cheeks, folds, and deep areas like the temples, pyriform aperture (deep nose) jawline to give support to the folds. This is a complex process during aging and not just about line filling. Please see an expert for a formal evaluation and a long / short term plan All my patients use sculptra as the foundation and other fillers on top. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Best Treatment for Nasolabial Folds Hi Lalaliu,Bothersome nasolabial folds are the result of the loss of bone in the cheeks. It is better to treat the cause rather than the result of the cause. Therefore I prefer treating patients with Voluma (a long lasting hyaluronic acid gel) to replace the lost volume of the cheeks. When done properly, we see improvement of the under eye area, the cheeks, the nasolabial folds, and in some patients even the corners of the mouth and jowls. Most important aspect of the treatment is making sure that you choose your injecting physician most carefully based on their experience, skill, knowledge, and natural artistic vision. Good luck and be well.Michael Persky, MDEncino, CA
