31-year-old Asian female. 5', 95lbs. Nasolabial folds issue or nasal aperture? (Photo)

June 29, 2017
Asked By:thn86 in San Francisco, CA

I'm still not 100% sure if I have heavy nasolabia folds or are these lines due to receded bone at the edge of the nasal aperture which is part of the Asian facial bone structure. But I've been noticing the "saggy" look for a few years now. In my case, would fillers help? Some people mention facial massages could reduce these? I'm not a big fan of facial injections at this early age for fear of permanent stiffness when I get older (e.g. 50). Or would I need an implant to improve nasal aperture?
