Wrinkle Improvement Review

Wrinkles are often said to be like the rings of a tree, right? But I think there are also many cases where wrinkles appear in a way that does not match a person's age. In particular, nasolabial folds not only make you look older than your actual age, but also make it difficult to give a good impression.
So today, let’s take a look at why nasolabial folds appear and what methods there are to improve them : )

Why do nasolabial folds appear?
There are various reasons for nasolabial folds, but among people who visit Ribbon at Sinnonhyeon Plastic Surgery hoping for improvement, it seems that the causes are often skeletal structure, facial shape, and aging.
In cases related to skeletal structure
- When a protruding mouth structure causes the lips to bend, creating nasolabial folds in that area.
Improvement method
- There are improvement methods that can be satisfying, such as fillers and fat grafting, and this is commonly referred to as a “noble surgery.”

When the cheeks have a lot of fat
- When there is too much cheek fat, or when the area below the wrinkle is significantly sunken, making the nasolabial fold stand out.
Improvement method
- Positive results can be achieved with fillers or fat grafting.

When there is a lot of flesh
- When the wrinkles appear deeper because there is a lot of flesh
Improvement method
- You can get help from things like liposuction surgery that removes a small amount of fat from the upper area, fat-dissolving injections, and contour injections.

Aging
- When wrinkles have become more numerous and deeper due to aging
As people age, it is said that changes do not occur only in the fleshy parts; the volume of the bones also decreases. As that happens, the bone volume also decreases, and as the lower volume becomes more sunken, the fat in the upper area, such as the cheekbones and buccal fat, sags more, and the cheek fat also sags.
Improvement method
- Direct injection into layers with a lot of fat, injections that reduce fat, and similar methods.

As such, nasolabial fold removal has various cases and improvement methods. If you consult Dr. Park Jae-hyeon at Ribbon, Sinnonhyeon Plastic Surgery, who has over 30 years of lifting experience, I think you will get satisfying results : )
