Find the answers to all these questions in the following paragraphs of our article.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4030\" title=\"icon3\" role=\"img\" src=\"http:\/\/www.my-esthetic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/icon3-1.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Are nasolabial folds normal?<\/h2>\n<p>Nasolabial folds are just a normal part of the human body. Only the newborns and people who had suffered some kind of facial paralysis don\u2019t have them. That\u2019s why they don\u2019t represent any medical condition, and they don\u2019t appear as a sign of aging.<\/p>\n<p>However, over the years, the nasolabial folds become more noticeable. When some people develop lines next to these so-called smile lines, that can represent a certain aesthetic problem.<\/p>\n<h2>What causes smile lines?<\/h2>\n<p>A lot of different factors influence the appearance of the nasolabial fold. The most common factors are the following ones:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Genetics<\/li>\n<li>Skin quality<\/li>\n<li>Sun exposure<\/li>\n<li>Face expression<\/li>\n<li>Weight loss<\/li>\n<li>Smoking<\/li>\n<li>Loss of collagen with age, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Smiling is good, but unfortunately, it can contribute to the appearance of the nasolabial folds. As you can see, these smile lines are called folds, not wrinkles because that\u2019s not what they are. They are just folds of skin that can get worse due to the factors mentioned above.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4028\" title=\"icon2\" role=\"img\" src=\"http:\/\/www.my-esthetic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/icon2-1.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"490\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Nasolabial folds treatment<\/h2>\n<p>Like we have already said, smile lines only represent a cosmetic issue. They are not a sign of any medical condition, and therefore medical treatment is not necessarily required. If you decide to reduce their appearance or eliminate them, you\u2019ll be able to find different treatment options.<\/p>\n<p>According to some opinions, dermal fillers have proved to be the most effective. The dermal fillers apply in the nasolabial fold or upper cheek area, making the laugh lines less visible. \u00a0The whole procedure can be done in just a few minutes, and it takes place at the doctor\u2019s office. If we take into account the fact that the essential cause for the nasolabial fold is the stretching of the middle-face, we can see why the boosting of the middle-face with solid hyaluronic acid seems to be the best option.<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that the dermal fillers can\u2019t make the laugh lines completely disappear. Either way, they can make them less prominent and help your skin look fuller and younger.<\/p>\n<h2>Side effects<\/h2>\n<p>Using hyaluronic acid as a facial filler might have some side effects that appear around the treated area, but they usually disappear in a few days. The side effects include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Redness<\/li>\n<li>Bruises<\/li>\n<li>Swelling<\/li>\n<li>Rush<\/li>\n<li>Itching<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are the common side effects that you shouldn\u2019t be worried about. However, if some rare side effects such as infection or some kind of injury appear, make sure to revisit your doctor.<\/p>\n<h2>FAQ<\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are nasolabial folds normal?
