Am I a candidate for fillers or is it too early?

Question

I am a 29 year-old female. I am unsure if my nasolabial folds are good candidates for fillers of any kind, as well as the lines under my eyes (admittedly I consume a lot of marijuana and have been depressed). It's important to note that I have never had injections of any kind, nor want to look like a Tik Tok or Instagram filter. Any sincere feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

Thank you for sharing these details and for your honesty—it really helps to give tailored advice. Based on your photo and the concerns you’ve described, it doesn’t appear that your nasolabial folds or under-eye lines are severe, and you’re still quite young. At 29, it’s often possible to address these areas with preventive or subtle enhancement rather than heavy volumizing, which aligns with your preference to avoid an “overdone” or filtered look.

For your under-eye area, mild hollows can sometimes benefit from very conservative filler placement, but it’s also important to assess skin quality, lifestyle factors, and overall facial structure. Nasolabial folds at this stage often respond well to soft, strategic volume in surrounding areas rather than directly filling the folds.

Your lifestyle habits—like marijuana use and current mood—can influence skin hydration, elasticity, and healing. Addressing overall wellness alongside aesthetic treatment can help maximize results and maintain a natural appearance.

Ultimately, if you pursue filler, the key is subtlety and a tailored approach rather than treating every line aggressively. You are definitely a candidate for discussion, and we can plan treatments that enhance your features without looking artificial.

Warmly,
Dr. Anna Chacon
