Thin and Shallow Nasolabial Folds, I'm Only 22? (photo)

roryo
I have had them since I can remember even noticing (around 18), but it has become increasingly more of a self-conscious issue. The problem is its stopping me from laughing or smiling since I know that afterwards I will be left with slight creases. I feel it makes me look older than I am. On the flip side, I feel it isn't a VERY big problem, therefore I don't want to take the risk of it being worse if it is a tricky/often-done-wrong type procedure to fix. Please advise??
