Nasolabial Fold Fillers in Parkville & Lee's Summit
Reduce Smile Lines and Restore a Smoother, Youthful Facial Appearance
Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines, are one of the most common concerns clients notice as they age. These folds run from the sides of the nose toward the corners of the mouth and tend to deepen over time as collagen decreases and facial volume shifts. At SkinFit Medical Spa, we offer safe and effective smile line filler treatments in Parkville and Lee’s Summit to help soften these lines and rejuvenate the midface. Our injectors use advanced techniques and FDA-approved fillers to lift, smooth, and refresh your natural features without altering your expression.
What Causes Smile Lines?
Smile lines form for several reasons, most of which relate to the natural aging process. As we age, the cheeks gradually lose volume, and the skin becomes less elastic. This causes the skin to fold more deeply when you smile or speak. Genetics also plays a role, meaning some people develop more pronounced nasolabial folds earlier in life. Environmental factors like sun exposure, dehydration, and lifestyle habits can accelerate the appearance of these folds.
Nasolabial folds are not simply “wrinkles.” They result from both volume loss and repetitive facial movements. This is why filler treatment in this area is so effective. By restoring support beneath the skin, we can smooth the fold, lift the midface, and create a more refreshed appearance that still looks like you.
Benefits of Filler for Nasolabial Folds
- Smoother Smile Lines: Filler restores structure beneath the fold, making the area appear more youthful.
- Lifted Midface Appearance: Treating nasolabial folds often improves the overall look of the cheeks.
- Natural Softening: We use flexible fillers designed to move with your expressions.
- Immediate Improvement: Lines appear softer right after treatment with minimal downtime.
- Long-Lasting Results: Many fillers last up to 1 year.
Best Filler Options for Smile Lines
Restylane Refyne®
A flexible hyaluronic acid filler that smooths smile lines while allowing natural facial movement. Ideal for moderate to deeper folds.
Juvederm Vollure®
A durable, soft filler that provides long-lasting smoothing with a natural finish.
Additional Options
Your injector may also recommend fillers such as Restylane Defyne® or Versa™, depending on your skin and treatment goals.
Expected Results and Duration
Most clients notice immediate improvement in the appearance of their smile lines after treatment. The filler continues to settle over one to two weeks, blending smoothly into the tissue for a natural finish. Depending on the product used, results typically last between nine and twelve months. Some clients may experience even longer-lasting results with specific formulas.
Routine maintenance appointments help you preserve soft, youthful contours and prevent folds from deepening over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many syringes do I need?
Most clients require 1 to 2 syringes to achieve natural softening of nasolabial folds. The exact amount depends on the depth of the lines and whether midface volume also needs support.
Do smile line fillers hurt?
Most clients experience minimal discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment, and many fillers contain lidocaine to enhance comfort. You may feel slight pressure during the injection, but the treatment is generally very well tolerated.
How long do these fillers last?
Generally, results last 9 months to 12 months, depending on the filler used, your metabolism, and lifestyle factors. Maintenance treatments can keep the area smooth and supported over time.
Will it look natural?
When placed by an experienced injector, fillers soften folds while preserving natural facial expression. The goal is subtle rejuvenation, not an overfilled or stiff appearance.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
These are often combined with cheek fillers to provide additional lift and support, enhancing overall facial balance and improving results.
