I am 28 years old with developing nasolabial folds. Is a facial lift too extreme or a smart move? (photos)

jesse28
I am 28 with fair sensitive Irish skin and I am beginning to develop, what I believe to be, nasolabial folds. I would like to do AS MUCH AS I CAN to treat the damage and prevent it from worsening. What would be my best option(s)? I have read that fillers are the best option but I am discouraged because they are so temporary and will add up in cost as time goes on. Is a facial lift too extreme or could it be the best move? I would like to attack this as aggressively as I can. Thank you so much!
