It seems like the nasolabial folds around my mouth have gotten deeper lately. Can they be filled in naturally with fillers?

Hello. Now that the weather is getting chilly, I feel like the wrinkles around my mouth are more noticeable every time I look in the mirror, so I am writing this post.

I’ve had some nasolabial folds for a while, but since the beginning of this year, whether I’m smiling or talking, the wrinkles feel deeply etched even when I’m not smiling. My husband has mentioned it to me a few times. I have a niece’s wedding next month and lots of neighborhood gatherings, so I’ll be taking a lot of photos, and it’s bothering me a bit.

I am looking into getting fillers because people around me say that naturally filling in areas makes facial expressions more relaxed and softens the overall impression. I am wondering if fillers are suitable for someone like me with thin and dry skin. I don't want to look unnatural from being too full; I would prefer just the sunken areas to be slightly filled in naturally. I am also curious how I should explain this during the consultation so that the filler can match the look I want.

I would also like to ask how long the filler usually lasts, and since it is my first time, what amount is appropriate. If anyone has experience with this, please give me some advice. I am also uploading a photo so you can see the current condition of the area around my mouth.

입가 팔자주름이 요즘 더 깊어진 것 같은데, 필러로 자연스럽게 채울 수 있을까요?

    팔자 부위 필러는 과하지 않게 꺼진 층만 채우는 게 핵심이에요.
    움직임이 많은 곳이라 유연한 제형으로 자연스럽게 가능해요.

    팔자 쪽은 조금만 과해도 인상이 달라 보여서 첫 시술이면 더 조심스럽게 접근하고 싶을 것 같아요ㅎㅎ  
    결혼식 일정도 있으니 붓기 빠지는 시점이랑 사진 찍을 때 가장 자연스러워지는 시기를 미리 물어보면 좋겠네요!

    조카 결혼식처럼 사진 많이 찍는 일정이 있으면 너무 티 나는 변화보다 자연스럽게 인상만 부드러워지는 쪽이 더 좋을 것 같아요ㅎㅎ  
    처음 필러라면 원하는 느낌의 사진을 보여주면서 과하게 채우지 않고 보수적으로 가능한지 상담해보면 훨씬 설명하기 편하겠네요!

    과하게 채우기보다 패인 부분만 자연스럽게 정리하고 싶다는 느낌을 상담 때 분명히 말씀드리면 좋을 것 같아요ㅎㅎ  
    처음 필러면 유지기간이랑 적정 용량, 웃을 때 표정이 어색해지지 않는지도 꼭 같이 물어보세요!
