I’ve had these deep nasolabial folds ever since I can remember, but they do seem to get more pronounced as I get older (I’m 43). What procedure do you recommend to soften these lines and lift my cheeks? There’s also my double-chin which I want to address. Would a neck lift, combined with a lower face lift give me the best results? I was thinking of fillers first, but I’d really prefer to get a procedure that’s more “permanent”.
Answer: Treatment options to remove the lines and rejuvenate the face For the double chin, I would recommend a combination of liposculpture to remove the submental fat and ThermiTight to tighten up the skin and restore definition to the jawline. These procedures can be performed at the same time using local anesthesia and recovery is typically just a few days. The results are very long-lasting. The nasolabial folds can be treated with a dermal filler like Restylane Defyne, which produces good results while preserving the natural movement of the face. I would also suggest filler in the cheeks to add some volume and lift, which would also help to improve the nasolabial folds. I advise you to schedule a consultation with an experienced, board-certified dermatologist for further assessment and treatment recommend

Answer: Considering options If you are looking for the most permanent and dramatic results, then a face and neck lift is the solution. If you are wanting to avoid surgery you can consider FaceTite. This procedure can tighten skin up to 40%. No general anesthesia is required. Results can be optimized by adding Morpheus8 treatments. You also could consider Silhouette InstaLift which can provide lifting results lasting 18 months or more. The best place to begin is a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon near you.

Answer: Nasolabial folds -- Fillers (juvederm, radiesse, restylane, belotero), sculptra, lasers, microneedling/prp, ultherapy, threads to be honest you need a facelift to get a substantial improvement. noninvasively you can do volume to midface and folds, therads and morpheus to help. at home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (MTS roller with anteage MD ampules weekly, see link) should be started now to prevent further aging. For facial rejuvenation, I would suggest a combination approach of 1) skin care with products and PRP/microneedling 2) PDT light therapy few times a month with growth factors 3) laser treatments like clear and brilliant regularly and a few times a year Fraxel/halo Viva, Co2/Erbium 4) Sculptra injections a few times a year for collagen production with fillers like juvederm/restylane/belotero/radiesse/bellafill 5) thermage/ultherapy for yearly skin tightening with or without PDO or cone based instalift threads for lifting 6) botox every 2-3 months to stop movement lines and prevent lines at rest 7) deep microneedling RF like Fractora/morpheus8 for tightening of the skin 8) Vascular laser like vbeam/excel V or BBL forever young treatment every quarter (3-4 months) Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Deep nasal labial folds In the photos, you have good facial volume and minimal skin laxity. At 43 you might not be ready for short incision facelift but you are a good candidate for a isolated mid-face lift. This procedure requires just a small incision in the hairline and the area of the nasalabial fold is elevated and held in position with an absorbable device called an Endotine ST. This results in a decrease to the depth of the nasaolabial fold and an ant-gravity vector to the cheek. The chin can be improved with a platysmaplasty and liposuction.

Answer: Options for Nasolabial Folds Hello Shaefchen. Yes, for the most dramatic results a lower face and necklift would give you the best results. If you are not looking for surgery right now, that is when you would consider dermal fillers like Radiesse or Restylane Lyft (see photos).
