Dents/dimples/lines near my mouth when smiling? What can I do to fix this? (photos)

Intuitive433
I've always hated the way the lower half of my face looks when smiling. I get these dents on my cheeks/corners of mouth and on my chin. I've had them for many years. I'm an 18 year old woman. Is this something that could be lessened with weight loss? My face is a little chubby and I thought that might be the issue, but even when I was 15 pounds lighter, I still had this issue. Would fillers help? I really hate my smile, please help!
