Extremely deep smile lines at 29, what can I do to get rid of the lines? (photos)

Question

I am 29 male and i have extremely deep smile lines around my mouth. I've had them for a few years but never really paid much attention to them when i was younger but now they are prominent even when i'm not laughing or smiling and make me look way older than i actually am. Are there any ways to get rid of the lines and if so what would the cost of such a treatment be? Are there any natural alternatives for it too? Please help

Hi @xidragon11. I recommend a combination treatment of dermal fillers and Morpheus 8.  Morpheus 8 is a non-surgical treatment for full body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and fat reduction of stubborn areas. It uses minimally invasive fractional radiofrequency energy (RF) to penetrate the skin deeper than other microneedling devices, triggering the skin’s natural healing response to promote skin 
tightening and lifting.

Best of luck,

Dr. Nima

Thank you for your question! I would recommend fillers for your nasolabial folds. Juvederm is a great product, in my opinion. The active ingredient, hyaluronic acid, stimulates collagen production, restoring fullness to your cheeks and smoothing out those lines.

Hi,Thank you for including your photos. You appear to have some volume loss in the cheeks and that is contributing to the prominence of the frown lines. Filler to the cheeks and frown lines will help restore a more youthful appearance. The cost will depend on the amount of filler necessary and the provider. Best,Mehdi Sina, MD

I recommend fillers for the lines 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

Hello and thank you for your question. Based on your photos provided, you could benefit from cheek volumization and refinement to the nasolabial folds. The source of volume loss is coming from your cheeks causing a fold of skin as seen in your nasolabial folds. Consider filling the cheeks first then refine the nasolabial folds with filler as well.
