Sudden lines on nasolabial folds following sudden weight loss, 22y/o, any suggestions? (Photos)

Asked By:unsureskin97 in Australia, AU

I am wondering if these lines could have been due to my sudden weight loss. I don't see other people my age with lines this prominent. They are very noticeable in some lighting and looking at photos from late last year my skin was very smooth in that area. Could this be helped by gaining the weight back? I know it might be "impossible to tell". I drink a lot of water and am good with skincare and SPF. Sleep could be better but I'm sure that's not the no. 1 culprit.
