Contour plastic surgery of nasolabial folds | Injecting Juvederm and Restylane gel into the nasolabial folds

Are Restylane injections into nasolabial folds effective?

Indeed, in many cases, hyaluronic acid preparations help get rid of wrinkles. Unfortunately, in the case of nasolabial folds, injections alone are not enough

Expert comment:

“After all, the reason for the formation of nasolabial wrinkles is not just dryness or thinning of the skin in this particular area. The real reason lies in the drooping tissue of the ENTIRE middle part of the face and the banal force of gravity. Therefore, the introduction of the gel into the nasolabial folds should have its own specifics.”

Andrey Iskornev, plastic surgeon.

Indeed, the injection of Juvederm and Restylane directly into the nasolabial folds helps only very young patients, and the effect of such a procedure is very short-lived - only a few months.

Let's debunk the second myth. Botox and Dysport are also not injected into nasolabial folds to correct them. They are used to improve the result at the final stage - to correct fine wrinkles around the lips and reduce the massiveness of the lower jaw.

Contour plastic surgery of nasolabial folds: correction methods

There are 2 types of fillers with different active ingredients:

Preparations based on calcium hydroxyapatite. This substance is found in human bone tissue. The drug not only fills wrinkles, but also forms a collagen-elastin framework and stimulates regeneration processes. This method of correcting nasolabial folds is recommended for patients over 35 years of age.
Fillers based on hyaluronic acid fill the grooves, smoothing out the relief of the face. The preparations nourish and moisturize the skin, eliminate age spots.

Don't know how to get rid of nasolabial folds? Consult a specialist. The doctor will tell you which method to choose. For example, calcium-based products do not have a moisturizing effect. They are recommended for patients prone to swelling.

Benefits of minimally invasive procedures

Safely. After the injections there are no scars or scars left, the drugs are hypoallergenic. Fillers are biosoluble and do not migrate in tissues.

Radiesse: correct injections into the nasolabial folds

So, do injections of hyaluronic acid into the nasolabial folds make no sense?

They have. You just need to do everything right.

Expert comment:

«The secret of success is an integrated approach

.
Contour plastic surgery with Radiesse should be combined with strengthening of the entire overhanging cheek-zygomatic area. To achieve this, at Platinental we use a special technique. At the first stage
of correction of nasolabial wrinkles, we perform reinforcement. The fillers are fan-injected into special points on the face to different depths of the dermis over the entire area of the rejuvenated tissue (cheeks and cheekbones).

This technique “lifts” the sagging tissues upward.”

Iskornev Andrey, plastic surgeon.

How can you remove nasolabial folds?

Essentially, all methods for correcting folds are divided into two main ones:

Filling the fold/crease itself
Pulling the overhanging fat packet upward.

A lot of myths and outright lies revolve around the methods by which nasolabial lips can be removed. Let's figure it out!

1) Plastic surgery

Surprisingly, not every facelift plastic surgery can relieve nasolabial problems! The thing is that the nasolabial triangle is considered one of the most dangerous areas on the face: the reason is in the facial arteries and veins that run along the crease area.

Because of the risks, plastic surgeons only rarely peel away the tissue in this area to perform a lift.

There is no separate plastic surgery that corrects the nasolabial area. It is impossible to correct skin folds with the help of plastic surgery - this is the prerogative of cosmetology.

The cost of the operation starts from 250,000 rubles and depends on the doctor’s experience.

2) Correction with fillers.

The most popular and effective method. There are several ways to remove folds and creases - first of all, they differ in the technique of work and the required amount of the drug.

“Filling” the nasolabial fold
“Pushing out” the nasolabial fold
Zygomatic correction and “stretching” of the nasolabial fold
Blanching a nasolabial fold
Complex facial correction (beautification and harmonization).

Long gone are the days when any nasolabial wrinkles were removed simply by filling them with filler. Yes, they still do this, but not always.

We have prepared a separate article where we described all the methods for correcting the nasolabial furrow with fillers: be sure to read it!

More often you have to work in several stages and I would like to draw the attention of those girls who “put off” until the last minute - the later you decide to visit a cosmetologist with this problem, the more difficult it will be to solve this problem.

Photo results of correction of the nasolabial area with fillers using different techniques:

How much medication is needed and what technique will be used for you depends on how pronounced the problem is.

Duration of correction result : from 8-9 months to 2 years, depending on the technique.

The cost of correction with fillers is from 10,000 rubles / 1 ml.

3) Thread correction of the nasolabial fold

There are methods of thread correction, when special threads are inserted , separating the skin from the muscles (separation) and creating a frame that prevents the skin from “wrapping” in this place.

The method of pulling tissue upward (to the cheekbone area) using notched threads is also very popular. In this case, the volumes of the middle third are redistributed and the overhang of the buccal area over the nasolabial area is eliminated.

When the threads dissolve (4-5 months), the problem returns.

The cost of correction with threads is from 30,000 rubles.

Duration of correction result : from 2-4 months to 12-16 months, depending on the technique and type of threads.

4) Massages, facial gymnastics, taping

The problem with all these newfangled methods is that they were invented by people far from real medicine, and some are not even familiar with the banal anatomical structure of this area.

How can you “move” subcutaneous fat with a massage, which has been transformed and moved under the influence of gravitational ptosis for 20-30 years?! If it were so easy, there would be no need for plastic surgeons!

How can you use taping to remove skin wrinkles that form due to the skin losing its firmness and elasticity? How can a pasted patch interfere with the work of facial muscles?

However, all these methods are safe and you can check their effectiveness yourself.

It is important to understand that we are all different and which method is right for you should be determined by a cosmetologist during an in-person appointment!

We will be happy to advise you on all questions!

Answers to frequently asked questions about biorevitalization

We have made for you a selection of answers to the most frequently asked questions about biorevitalization. Answered by Ph.D. cosmetologist-dermatologist Zherlova Tatyana Georgievna

At what age is biorevitalization recommended?

Biorevitalization has been carried out since the age of 25 to prevent aging, reduce the depth of the first wrinkles that appear, or restore the skin, for example, after exposure to the sun.

How many biorevitalization procedures are needed? Is one enough?

The average course of biorevitalization is 3-5 procedures. To obtain a rejuvenating effect, you must complete the entire course. The goal of biorevitalization is to increase the level of free hyaluronic acid in the dermis (skin) and stimulate fibroblast cells, which, after the course, begin to produce their own hyaluronic acid and allow the skin to work as if it were 20 years old. Therefore, one procedure is not enough to obtain the effect.

After what procedure will the effect be noticeable?

The first effect will be noticeable within a few hours. Each subsequent procedure from the course will enhance the result obtained.

How long does the effect of biorevitalization last?

Typically, the effect of a biorevitalization course lasts 6 months, in some cases it can last longer.

Why do injection marks last longer from some biorevitalization preparations?

There are many preparations for biorevitalization. The choice usually depends on skin type and age-related manifestations. Some preparations, in addition to hyaluronic acid, contain additional components in the form of vitamins, amino acids, peptides or substances that prolong the action of hyaluronic acid, and therefore moisturizing properties.

There are different ways to administer these drugs. Usually, they are recommended by the manufacturer. Therefore, after some biorevitalization procedures, papules “pimples” remain, while other drugs are injected into the deep layers and therefore the traces are almost invisible.

Why hyaluronic acid?

Hyaluronic acid is a part of our body. It is part of many tissues and is found in most biological fluids. Hyaluronic acid is also part of the skin, taking part in its regeneration and antioxidant protection. The production of hyaluronic acid itself occurs in the skin, but, unfortunately, decreases from the age of 25. That is why the first acquaintance with biorevitalization is recommended at this age, and not earlier.

Who needs a course of biorevitalization procedures?

A course of biorevitalization procedures is recommended for everyone over 25 years of age. Because it will make the skin dense, elastic and slow down aging. But biorevitalization is especially necessary for patients with dry skin. After returning from a sunny country or skin damage due to ultraviolet radiation both in the sun and in a solarium. For those who are preparing for plastic surgery, to speed up healing. For the prevention of chrono- and photoaging. If you need to look fresh, young and rested for an important date, then it's time to start with this wonderful procedure.

Will biorevitalization remove nasolabial folds?

Biorevitalization is a procedure that improves the quality of the skin. With its help you can prevent the appearance of nasolabial folds and other wrinkles. To fill nasolabial folds, other preparations based on hyaluronic acid and other techniques are used.

What will I look like when the effect of biorevitalization ends? Will there be a dependence on procedures?

Biorevitalization adds freshness, beauty and radiance to the face. But these effects are reversible. Therefore, I would like to repeat the course (after the recommended period, or you can carry out one maintenance procedure every 2-3 months) to restore the feeling of comfort and youthfulness of the skin.

Biorevitalization, of course, does not cause physical dependence (like bad habits)!
