Individuals with a naturally less developed midface may develop hollows beside the nostrils, which can appear as nasolabial folds even in younger people.
Hyaluronic acid injections are a convenient and effective method for combating nasolabial folds.
However, hyaluronic acid is absorbed within six months to a year, so regular injections are necessary.
Another option is a nasal alar base prosthesis.
An incision is made inside the mouth, and a silicone prosthesis approximately 4 to 5 mm thick is inserted.
Unlike hyaluronic acid, it offers semi-permanent effects against nasolabial folds.
The midface gains a more three-dimensional appearance, offering a rejuvenating effect.
