Answer: The deepening grooves around your nose are nasolabial folds and are correctable with fillers The reason the nasolabial folds appear is because of loss of support of the cheek. The cheek drops down leading to deepening of the NLF. Also, the bone in this area starts to absorb and things sink backward. Fat and muscle loss are also contributors. Luckily, the correction is fairly easy with use of fillers. Any of the fillers can be used for this correction. Correction of the cheek in addition to the NLF would lead to the best correction. Voluma, Restylane, and Radiesse or Sculptra are all appropriate for this, and I would also recommend cannulas so the bruising is minimized and the risks are less.
