Answer: Fillers for the Nasal Labial Folds Thank you for the picture. You can absolutely use fillers to add volume to your laugh lines or you could consider fat grafting with a board certified plastic surgeon.

Answer: Filler vs. Fat This is an insightful question. I personally prefer to use the cheeks as the area to volumize for this. This is because the cause of these lines is the cheek dropping and fat loss in this area. It is not becasue the crease itself becomes deeper. Sometimes I will put a small amount in the lines to camouflage them but that is exactly what it is doing it is just minimizing the effects of the dropped cheek. You could also consider fat transfer. You are young and would do well. We are less limited with volume using fat.Hope this helps.Best of luck,DrC
