At Aesthetic Nurse Irina, we understand that nasolabial folds, commonly known as laugh lines, are a natural part of ageing but can become more pronounced over time.
These lines, which run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth, can deepen due to volume loss, repeated facial expressions, and reduced skin elasticity.
If you’re looking to soften these folds, restore volume, and achieve a refreshed look, our nasolabial folds treatment offers non-surgical solutions to potentially help you maintain natural facial balance and a youthful appearance.
What Are Nasolabial Folds?
Nasolabial folds are the creases that form between the nose and mouth, often referred to as laugh lines or smile lines. While they are present in everyone, ageing, volume loss, and lifestyle factors can cause them to become more prominent and deeper over time.
What Causes Nasolabial Folds?
Common causes of nasolabial fold lines include:
- Loss of collagen and skin elasticity due to ageing
- Volume depletion in the mid-face and cheek area
- Frequent facial expressions like smiling or laughing
- Sun exposure, smoking, and other lifestyle factors
As these folds deepen, they can contribute to a tired or aged appearance, making the face look less smooth and defined.
Nasolabial Fold Treatment Options
At Aesthetic Nurse Irina, we provide minimally invasive, non-surgical treatments designed to target nasolabial folds by potentially restoring lost volume, smoothing facial wrinkles, and enhancing skin elasticity.
These treatments may help to reduce deep folds, support facial structure and improve skin quality, helping you achieve a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Volume Restoring & Enhancement Treatments
Wrinkle-reducing and volumising professional skin treatments may work to smoothen and restore lost volume in the nasolabial area, resulting in a more youthful, refreshed appearance. These treatments may help to:
- Reduce prominent nasolabial folds for a smoother complexion
- Restore lost volume to the cheeks and mid-face
- Create a more balanced, natural facial contour
This non-surgical approach fills the area under the skin, softening creases and supporting facial structure for a rejuvenated look.
You may require more than one session for optimal results, as the treatment effect is temporary and naturally absorbed by the body. Results typically last 12 months or longer.
Wrinkle-reducing Treatments
Expression lines naturally form over time due to smiling, frowning, and squinting. Our wrinkle-reducing treatments may target laugh lines and other visible wrinkles, helping to:
- Minimise the appearance of nasolabial folds for a smoother facial surface
- Prevent further deepening of nasolabial folds
- Create a more refreshed, youthful appearance

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes more prominent nasolabial folds?
More prominent nasolabial folds can result from age-related volume loss, frequent facial expressions, and a decrease in collagen production. As the skin loses elasticity, it can sag, leading to deeper wrinkles and accentuated folds. Factors like sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration can also affect skin quality and make nasolabial folds more noticeable.
How can I reduce smile lines and prevent deep wrinkles?
To reduce smile lines, treatments such as volume-restoring and wrinkle-reducing procedures may help soften deep wrinkles and restore skin firmness. Maintaining healthy skin with a consistent skincare routine, sun protection, and hydration may also prevent further deepening of these lines.
Can volume loss in the cheeks accentuate nasolabial folds?
Yes, volume loss in the mid-face can accentuate nasolabial folds by causing the skin to droop and fold more deeply around the mouth. Volume-restoring treatments may help lift and support facial contours, reducing the severity of deep nasolabial folds and potentially improving overall skin quality.
Does loose skin make nasolabial folds more noticeable?
Yes, as skin loses elasticity, it becomes looser and less resilient, which can lead to deeper nasolabial folds. Collagen-stimulating treatments may improve skin structure and elasticity, helping to restore firmness and reduce facial wrinkles.
How does collagen production affect nasolabial folds?
Collagen production is essential for maintaining firm, healthy skin. As collagen levels naturally decline with age, skin quality decreases, leading to loose skin and deep wrinkles. Treatments that stimulate collagen production may help restore volume, improve elasticity, and reduce the appearance of nasolabial folds.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
