Nasolabial Filler

Nasolabial filler is an aesthetic intervention to reduce the lines and wrinkles of the skin around the cheek line and mouth. This procedure is performed using an injected filler and can often include fillers such as hyaluronic acid, polyurethane or poly-L-lactic acid. These substances are filled into the surface of the skin and cause the reduction of lines and wrinkles.

Nasolabial fillers are usually completed in a few minutes and do not require anaesthesia. The results are usually very effective and result in the reduction of lines and wrinkles around the cheek line and mouth. However, some people may require several days for the filler to settle and the results may only be temporary. It is recommended that this procedure be performed by a doctor or plastic surgeon. The person undergoing this procedure should be informed about how long the filler will work and what results are expected. Before having this procedure, you should talk to your doctor about your health condition and past procedures.

How is nasolabial filling done?

Depending on the problem or problems of the patient who wants to have nasolabial filler application, the type of application and the amount of dose to be applied are decided. Before the application, the area is sterilised and anaesthetic cream or optional local anaesthesia can be used, although rarely. Thus, the patient is prevented from feeling pain during the application.

Nasolabial filler is injected into the lines with a fine needle or cannula. Unlike other filling applications, it is not preferred to give maximum filling at once in nasolabial filling. A less voluminous application is performed to obtain the most natural and healthy result. It is observed whether there is a change in the patient's smile and facial expressions. In this process, if the depth in the nasolabial area is not completely removed, the patient should not worry and should be informed that they will get results in the next session. Completing the application in two sessions is to ensure that the patient gains a more proportional, healthy and aesthetic appearance.
