Should I start looking into correction for my nasolabial folds? I'm 31, not sure if it's too early (Photo)

Hi @asa1116! Dermal fillers and PDO threads are two great options to help soften the nasolabial folds. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of luck, Dr. Nima!

Hello asa1116. Thank you for sharing your questions and photo.
To start, congratulations on your weight loss!
Unfortunately, the fat that we have in our faces can lose volume during periods of weight loss, as you have noticed. In general, most people often do not want to lose the fat in their face, as fat generally looks good when in the appropriate places within the face.
Often times, it seems that the fat that is lost in the face does not always return with a gain in weight (for example, take a look at some photos of professional bodybuilders/fitness competitors - they often lose a large amount of facial fat during dieting for competitions). Therefore, I would recommend that if you do not like the small loss in volume that you have, that you should schedule a consultation with a physician specializing in facial aesthetics. You will have multiple options (specifically a variety of fillers and possibly fat transfer) available to you that can be discussed at length in a proper consultation.
Good luck and please don't hesitate to ask any further questions.

When evaluating nasolabial folds they should be considered in the context of the entire face. It may be that you also have some flattening of your cheeks which is making your folds look more prominent. If there is some flattening of your cheeks then it is important to enhance your cheeks.  When enhancing your cheeks, if needed, you can also add to your folds. In the photo is appears that your face may be angled down towards the camera, this can alter your facial aesthetics.Answer this question
