Hi, I don’t overly have a problem with nasiolabial folds, just a deep set wrinkle that is worse on one side (with also a little scar making it look longer) hoping to know which is the best route to go. Microneedling? Botox? I’m very unsure. Thankyou

Answer: Which procedure would deliver the best results to help minimize the appearance of wrinkles in the nasolabial folds? (photo) Hello! To help correct your concern with your nasolabial folds, there are many options for you. Yes, you can most definitely Microneedle the skin to help collagen production which will stimulate your body's collagen which can smooth out any unwanted wrinkles. Botox I don't think will be the absolute best solution for you. You most definitely can do fillers in the nasolabial folds, that will smooth and fill in the creases. I recommend starting with one of those 2 options and seeing what works for you, keep in mind Microneedle you may need 4-6 sessions, and for filler, you may need more sessions or syringes to give you the results you are looking for. Best of Luck!Dr. Julia Spears MD

Answer: Laugh Lines / Nasolabial Folds - Fillers + Sculptra, Lasers like Fraxel/Clear + Brilliant, Radiofrequency, Peels, Skin Care I recommend fillers to soften the nasolabial folds themselves and also lift around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine Sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, skin tightening treatments such as Thermage, Fractora, and Renuvion (J Plasma), thread lifting, and peels to get the most conservative, natural look. I suggest seeing a facial sculpting expert for a formal consultation. Best, Dr. Emer
