Study Background: s
Folds are formed by facial expressions, like deep wrinkles. The nasolabial fold is usually a deepening of a single facial line where the expression occurs. The naso-labial folds forms from the nose to the sides of the mouth.
Individuals frequently seek correction of facial contour deformities due to age or disease-related factors. Wrinkles, folds, and scars are often treated with surgery or implantation, and in these cases, correction of these deformities is the goal of the treatment.
Alternative treatments using derma fillers can also be used for temporary correction of wrinkles. Dermal fillers are designed to smooth away moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds without the need of surgery. It cannot, however, stop the process of aging. It is intended to be used for wrinkle reduction, tissue augmentation and volumizing of the skin around the nose and mouth. s
