Thank you for posting photos. There are several good ways to improve this crease. Injectable fillers are relatively easy and safe, but are temporary. Even the longer lasting fillers are not going to last more than a year or two. Surgery can address the soft tissues and/or the bones, is more invasive and risky, a lot more expensive, but the results are long lasting. If the skeletal evaluation reveals an underdeveloped chin bone or a jaw alignment problem, then orthognathic surgery is the way to correct it. Surgical soft tissue grafting with your own skin and/or fat is another option to fill in deep creases. Consult with one or more board certified plastic surgeons experienced in this area so you can be directly examined, then you can decide on the option you that you prefer. Best wishes!
Good question! To fill in an labiomental fold there are namely two good options. The first is filler injection to the area to help fill out the area, but keep in mind this would be temporary and require continued injections every few months. Another option is a genioplasty (not chin implant) which is a surgery to move your actual chin bone forward. This will help fill out your fold as well as project your chin out, which would provide a nice aesthetic result. Good luck!
Building up your chin underneath the fold with a filler like Sculptra or Voluma and then topping it with something softer, such as Juvederm or Volbella will give you the most natural look and feel. Evening out a labiomental fold takes a great deal of experience and skill so be sure to consult with a board-certified dermatologist who has expertise in this area.
Thank you for your question. I suggest that you move forward and consult with a board certified facial plastic surgeon about your candidacy for lip enhancement. There are options available to create a natural looking result with a speedy recovery time. Best wishes,
Thank you for sharing your question and photographs. The labiomental crease can be filled in with a combination of dermal fillers. I typically recommend a thicker filler placed near your chin bone and a thinner filler placed closer to the skin surface level for the best, most natural, results. Be sure to see an ASPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation to discuss.
This can be improved with fillers (Voluma, Radiesse, Bellafill) and Sculptra. It will take 1-2 weeks for final results. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer
Hi, The labiomental fold can be volumized with injectable fillers to help soften the crease and shadowing that are present under your lower lip. I would recommend using a hyaluronic acid filler with moderate to high density such as Juvederm Ultra Plus. The procedure is an injection that is expertly placed to help soften the crease that is present and smooth the contour at the labiomental crease. In our office we use numbing cream and local anesthesia to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. Most fillers in this area will last about a year.
The best permanent solution to softening the labiomental fold is a dermal-fat graft placed underneath it through an intraoral approach.
Thanks for sharing your photos. I think you would benefit from treatment using a hyaluronic acid base filler like Restylane to the marionette lines, prejowl sulci and chin. The mental crease could also be softened with filler as well.
Thank you for your question and pictures. The crease between the chin and lower lip can easily be soften with dermal fillers. The chin can also be redefined with dermal fillers. Please se an expert in your area. All the best, Dr.Michon
Hi, I have performed many lip augmentation procedures using dermal fillers or lip implants for over 30 years. From the photos, your upper lip is very thin on both sides. Following my beauty principles, the lips should be full with the upper lip approximately 75 % the size of the lower lip f...
Hair transplantation should have no bearing on lip filler placement, provided any "wounds" are fully healed and there are no signs or symptoms of infection. Fillers are quite safe and well-tolerated, so there should be no issues.
Actually, it may be beneficial to get some lip filler. Over time hydrocortisone can thin your skin by causing collagen degeneration. It might be good to help stimulate collagen production with a dermal filler to your lip area. I would recommend stopping the hydrocortisone asap....
