Many clients worry about prominent and ageing lines between the nose and mouth area, known as nasolabial folds.
When it comes to treating this issue the first step is to fully understand the nature and severity of creases and wrinkles between the nose and mouth, which are often caused by skin laxity or loss of volume in the skin.
A comprehensive consultation is the first step in considering any facial rejuvenation treatments. Here, the Aesthetic Doctor will undertake a full and detailed facial assessment in order to fully understand the dynamics and pattern of ageing. When it comes to a specific issue such as nasolabial folds, examination of the issue helps to quantify it in terms of visibility, depth and length of lines:
- No visible lines
- Shallow lines visible with slight movement
- Moderate deep lines, visible at normal appearance
- Prominent, long and deep lines
- Extreme, deep and long nasolabial folds
Recording and discussing this information helps in a number of ways:
- Quantify the issue
Providing information on which to base discussions, as well as recording a benchmark for comparison in the future - Determine the most appropriate treatment.
In the case of nose to mouth lines, dermal fillers are an extremely effective choice for replenishing lost volume and smoothing out the creases. - Compare the results of treatment
With dermal fillers, results are immediate and it is satisfying for the client and the doctor to be able to review treatment and reclassify the severity of the lines and wrinkles, demonstrating the improvement that has been made. - Review in the future
Recording information relating to previous consultations and treatments, in order to see at what point the treatment wears off
So quantifying the nature of the lines helps to assess the best treatment and measure the results of treatment.
