Question

Seems like there’s veins that run along my smile lines making the skin darkThe lines aren’t so much deep as they are dark.

Smile lines can get improvement with dermal fillers. Restylane, Juvederm, and Radiesse, can be used to give extra volume to the area just next to the fold and provide support to the face. I hope this helps!

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I recommend fillers for the folds themselves but also lifting around the mouth and cheeks to build underlying anatomical support. In our practice we combine sculptra with other fillers "layered" on top and lasers, rf treatments, J Plasma and peels to get the most conservative natural look. Please see a facial sculpting expert. Best, Dr. Emer

In person exam is essential. Based on limited photos- it appears that you may benefit from fillers such as Juverderm products, or Restylane. Surgically, you may benefit from a fat transfer - but again in person exam is necessary.

Thank you for sharing your question and photographs.  Though your full face is not included in your pictures to offer the best advice, you can smooth the transition from your cheek to your lip region with carefully placed hyaluronic acid dermal fillers like Juvederm Ultra Plus or Vollure.  Be sure to see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss.

Nasolabial Folds that are Apparent at an early age like you're seeing in yourself, are usually seen in patients who have very shallow cheek bone and are lacking fat presence in the upper portion of the face. If this is the case, this can be remedied with fat grafting which will provide you with a natural and long lasting results. On the other hand if I am incorrect in my assumption, you can easily receive a treatment using Restylane or Juvederm to fill those lines out and I'm sure you will be satisfied in the future. Good luck from New York City
