I feel as though my nasal folds are asymmetrical and are giving me a lopsided look. (My lips are thin too, but I guess that's another story.) Would Restalyn be the best option for treatment, or is there another procedure that would be better in terms of creating a more symmetrical appearance? I'm a 31-year-old woman and haven't had any prior cosmetic treatments. Thank you.

Answer: Fillers for nasolabial folds The quickest procedure with the least downtime/recovery time, smallest risk of complications and most bang for your buck is an injectable filler. The next step is to choose which filler and which physician. There are numerous ones that would fit the bill. My favorite for this area is radiesse because it lasts a few years and my patients have been very happy with out. Different fillers have different properties and some have to be injected deeper than others to avoid problems. There are many qualified doctors out there who can perform this procedure. Make sure the doctor you choose is familiar with the type of filler they plan to use. Do not be concerned about the asymmetry because this type of asymmetry is very common. You will just need more filler on one side.

Answer: Restoring Facial Symmetry With Injectable Fillers (Restylane, Juvederm, Radiesse, Sculptra) Hi Anon, Fillers would be the best method to use to even out your facial asymmetry. Whether you use Restylane, Juvederm, or Sculptra is not as important as choosing an experienced and skilled injecting physician for your treatments. Good luck and be well. Dr. P
