How to Improve Nasolabial Folds at a Plastic Surgery Clinic in Sinsa-dong

Hello, we are Re:본 Plastic Surgery, located at Exit 1 of Sinsa Station, where we meet with you.

"I’m worried because my nasolabial folds have gotten deeper."

"It doesn’t seem like laser lifting makes my nasolabial folds go away."

"Isn’t there a way to get rid of nasolabial folds quickly?"

Nasolabial folds, which run from the sides of the nose down to below the lips, are one of the symbols of an aged appearance.

The deeper the nasolabial folds become, the older you look.

There are many ways to improve nasolabial folds.

However, nasolabial folds caused by sagging cheek volume are difficult to improve simply by filling in the cheek area or increasing firmness in that area.

A procedure that directly lifts the sagging cheek volume is needed.

Today, I will talk about how to improve nasolabial folds with thread lifting, which physically lifts sagging skin tissue without surgical burden.

Cause of Nasolabial Folds

Nasolabial folds are one of the wrinkles that naturally appear with aging.

The area where nasolabial folds form is one of the most frequently used parts of our body, and the skin there is thin and flexible.

As we age and lose elasticity, creases tend to form easily.

One cause is that these creases do not recover and continue to deepen.

Another cause is sagging skin with age.

When the ligament tissue supporting our face loosens, tissue such as facial fat affected by gravity begins to sag downward.

As the sagging area forms a boundary with the skin around the mouth and becomes more lax, deep nasolabial folds develop.

The reasons above are caused by a decline in elasticity due to aging.

In recent years, nasolabial folds can also appear in people who work in jobs that require a lot of smiling and talking.

Wrinkles caused by these reasons are not related to aging, but because they make you look older than you really are, they should be managed.

How can nasolabial folds be removed?

To improve nasolabial folds, their cause must be carefully diagnosed.

Deep nasolabial folds cannot be solved simply by removing wrinkles, depending on the cause.

Deep folds caused by facial sagging and cheek volume drooping due to aging can only be properly improved when a procedure to lift the sagging cheek volume is performed together.

Thread lifting shows excellent effectiveness in physically improving a sagging face without surgery.

Thread lifting refers to a procedure in which medically approved dissolvable threads with proven safety are inserted to lift sagging areas.

Without cutting the skin, threads are inserted into the dermal layer through tiny openings, allowing the face to be physically pulled upward.

It can also help shorten recovery time, so there is less concern about downtime.

After the procedure, the threads naturally dissolve and are absorbed in the body, helping to form collagen.

In addition to simply lifting the skin, some improvement in overall elasticity can also be expected.

Since the treatment areas vary, including the front cheeks, deep cheek area, jawline, and nasolabial folds, the treatment area can be selected according to your concerns, making it excellent for point lifting.

Of course, it is dangerous to approach nasolabial folds with the idea that thread lifting is always the answer.

A decision should be made only after comprehensively considering various factors such as the cause and depth of the wrinkles, as well as the current skin condition and skin thickness.

For example, if the cause of the nasolabial folds is more about reduced elasticity than facial sagging, device-based lifting can be sufficiently effective.

The important thing is that you must clearly examine the current condition of your skin and the cause of the wrinkles before proceeding in order to achieve satisfying results.

Thread lifting is a procedure where the practitioner’s "manual skill" is more important than anything else.

From choosing the product to the insertion point of the thread, the pulling force, and the direction, the procedure must be carefully designed in detail.

Therefore, when choosing a clinic after undergoing the procedure, please be sure to check whether the doctor who will perform the procedure personally consults with the patient.

Because thread lifting is a procedure involving insertion into the face, it should be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive anatomical knowledge of the face.

You should also confirm whether they have extensive clinical experience with a variety of procedures for different age groups so that you can receive the procedure your face truly needs.

At Ribbon Plastic Surgery near Sinsa Station, a medical team made up of board-certified plastic surgeons with more than 25 years of experience personally diagnoses patients one-on-one and proceeds with the procedure only after sufficient consultation.
