Hello Drs of RealSelf! With age, I am noticing a deepening of my labiomental fold. Rather than endure a painful surgical chin advancement, I'd like to opt for fillers for this area to straighten my chin on the profile view, as shown in the before/after morph of myself. I've seen plenty of chin augmentations with fillers, but not much to the actual sulcrus area. Can fillers be used or are there too many nerves in that area?
