Laugh Lines, Don’t Cry About Them: Understanding and Addressing Nasolabial Folds

HST

Nasolabial folds, those lines running from your nose to your chin, are a natural part of aging. But that doesn’t mean you have to embrace them with open arms (or wrinkles!). While they might tell the story of your laughter and smiles, sometimes you want to rewrite the narrative with a smoother chapter. Why Do They Appear? These lines run from the corners of your nose down to the sides of your mouth. They develop due to a combination of factors: Loss of collagen and elastin: These are the building blocks of plump, youthful skin. As we age, production slows down, leading to sagging and the formation of wrinkles. Gravity: It’s not just an apple, it pulls down on our faces too, deepening existing lines like nasolabial folds. Sun damage: Sun exposure breaks down collagen and elastin, accelerating the aging process and making lines more prominent. Facial expressions: Repeated facial expressions, like smiling and frowning, can etch lines into the skin over time. Combating the Creases: Now, onto the fun part – treatments! Remember, Continue Reading
