What is hyaluronic acid injection for nasolabial folds?

What are nasolabial folds?

Nasolabial folds are wrinkles that extend from the sides of the nose to the edges of the mouth, and are medically called the nasolabial folds. In addition, its shape is considered a typical sign of aging, so it is one of the beauty concerns that many people have. Deeper nasolabial folds tend to give your face a tired or aged look. Unlike marionette lines and gorgo lines, nasolabial folds have little difference depending on bone structure or individual facial shape, and most people appear as they age, so they are considered an unavoidable change.
The main cause of fine lines is a decrease in skin elasticity and moisture. As we age, collagen and elastin in our skin decrease, causing the skin to sag and wrinkles to form. Additionally, a reduction in the skin's natural moisturizing ability and UV damage from sunlight can also play a role, and these factors can combine to cause deep fine lines. In addition, daily facial movements, genetic factors, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors are thought to have an influence.
