I'm only 38 and am really bothered by the folds around my mouth as the make me look 10 years older than I am. Should I have a facelift or will fillers work?

Answer: Face lift vs fillers Thank you for your question and for attaching photos. Since your concern is the nasolabial folds, fillers are a great option. A face lift is a great procedure, but it does not correct this area. Many times fat grafting is done at the same time of a face lift to improve the NLF area. Find an experienced injector in a dermatology or plastic surgery practice for your fillers. You should be happy with the results. Best of luck.

Answer: Filler can be wonderful Great question! At your young age, surgery seems like too much. I would recommend fillers to both your nasolabial folds and corners of your mouth. Columns of hyaluronic acid such as juvaderm ultra or ultra plus can be laid under the skin to lift the mouth corners up too. The goal with fillers is to diminish shadows and the result is immediate. Find someone in your area who has great reviews. I have a nurse who has worked for me for 28 years is amazing. Some surgeons love injecting too.
