Nose-to-Mouth Lines (The Nasolabial Folds)
Nose-to-mouth lines, also known as nasolabial folds, are the lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. These folds can deepen with age, creating a tired or sad appearance. Dermal fillers are used to restore volume and smooth out these lines, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look. This treatment not only enhances facial aesthetics but also helps restore confidence by improving overall facial harmony.

Can also enhance the overall facial contour and balance.
