Any suggestions on how to get rid of persistent nasalabial lines? One side seems so much deeper than the other. I don't want to be rid of them completely- I just want my one side to be more like my less noticeable side. I have had fillers in the past- only Juverderm and never more than 1 syringe between the two of them. Am I just not getting enough or do I need a "thicker" filler? I have also gotten cheek fillers and they did absolutely nothing to lift my fold. Am I a lost cause as far as symmetry goes?
