Hi, I am 23 and have deep nasolabial folds. I didn't have any when I was 18, and it seems like over the past 5 years, my cheek muscle/fat pad has descended and pooled around my nasolabial region. I have a malocclusion (slight overbite and slight lip incompetence), but when I spoke to a jaw surgeon, he said jaw surgery wouldn't help my nasolabial folds. I am really distressed by my nasolabial folds and hate being in lightings where they are obvious. Am I a candidate for midface lift?

Answer: Nasolabial Folds Hello, hope you are well. With such a limited view of your face, it's going to be difficult to receive any meaningful advice on the best course of action. I would be curious to see the profile view of your face with attention to the cheek volume and projection. There are a number of ways to reduce the appearance of nasolabial creases, but I would want to take into account your 3-dimensional appearance. You should have an in-person consultation for best advice.

Answer: Nasolabial fold treatment Yes you can get an endoscopic mid-face lift procedure to correct nasolabial folds and also a fat grafting to make the transition smoother. It is not possible to completely eliminate the folds as it is an anatomic landmark but you can see a significant improvement with the procedure. If you want to avoid surgery please try biostimulating fillers first to increase collagen formation.
