ever since I got cheek filler I have noticed my nasolabial fold looks deeper is this normal, I'm guessing its due to the cheeks looking fuller in turn making the nasolabial fold look worse. I have always had quite deep nasolabial fold despite being 23 I don't really want to start injecting this area so young but I feel might start having too now .
Answer: Voluma injections Hi there, I'm sorry to hear your concern, carefully placed dermal filler injections in across the zygoma / upper cheeks should create a lifting effect and soften the NL fold. Sometimes if the filler is injected further down and towards the nose in the mid-face this can create a little more of a weighty appearance. I would recommend holding off any further dermal filler injections at the moment as the product you have present will naturally settle down and your heavier NL fold will settle down. You can always then re-assess the situation afterwards. It will save you money and any more hassle! Hope this helps, Dr Rupert

Answer: Does cheek filler make nasolabial folds look worse? It's always possible. If the filler is placed lower on the cheek pads sometimes it can make the area around your mouth look fuller. Other times it's just a little swelling and it should go away 4 weeks post injection, at the latest.

Answer: Voluma Thank you for your question. It would be helpful to see before/after pictures and to know when you received the injections. Please keep in mind that side effects of Voluma are minor and will find within 2 to 4 weeks and the only noticeable results will be enviably youthful cheeks. I suggest that you consult with your board certified facial plastic surgeon.Best wishes,

Answer: Has filler in the cheeks made my NLF look worse? Thank you for sharing your question. Unfortunately without a series of before and after pictures it is difficult to offer definite recommendations. In general well-placed filler into a patient's cheeks will improve the appearance of their NLF as it repositions the cheek mound into a higher position while lifting the surrounding tissues. I would speak with your injector about your results and see how an adjustment can be made to help minimize your NLF prominence. Once your cheeks are at an appropriate size, any additional correction would require filler placement into your NLF. Hope this helps.
