The wrinkles on my nasolabial folds used to only appear when I smiled, but now they remain even when I'm still, which is really bothering me. As they get darker, I look older and more stressed out.

It is said that wrinkles on the forehead can be caused by various reasons.

Today, I'll explain why nasolabial folds form, how to manage and prevent nasolabial folds at home, and even helpful dermatological procedures!

1. Why wrinkles appear on the forehead

1) Aging

One of the causes of nasolabial folds is aging. As we age, the skin around our cheeks loses elasticity, deepening nasolabial folds. As the retaining ligaments that support the cheeks weaken, the skin sags, causing wrinkles to worsen.

 

2) Usual facial expression habits

The facial expressions we make every day can also contribute to the formation of nasolabial folds. Frequently making the same facial expressions can cause the skin to fold, deepening the wrinkles in that area.

 

3) Habit of sleeping on your side

You can also develop nasolabial folds if you sleep on your side instead of in a proper posture. Sleeping on your side can cause your cheeks to press against the pillow, which can lead to wrinkles.

 

4) Other causes

In addition to this, skin damage caused by ultraviolet rays, the habit of resting your chin on your hand, and lack of moisture are also said to be reasons for the formation of nasolabial folds.

2. Home care and prevention of nasolabial folds

It's important to manage nasolabial folds before they become more pronounced. It's especially important to prevent them before they appear. Here are some tips for managing and preventing nasolabial folds at home.

 

1) Improve lifestyle habits

It is said that making a habit of sleeping on your stomach or side can help prevent nasolabial folds, so making a habit of sleeping on your back with your face facing the ceiling can help prevent nasolabial folds.

It is also said that it is good to correct the habit of excessively pursing your mouth because using the muscles around the mouth too much can worsen nasolabial folds.

 

2) Use sunscreen

It is said that it is important to thoroughly apply sunscreen on a regular basis because collagen and elastin can be destroyed by UV rays, which can worsen wrinkles.

3) Skin moisture management

It is said that applying a cream that provides elasticity and moisture at the same time can help manage and prevent nasolabial folds, as wrinkles get worse when the skin is dry.

3. Dermatological treatment for nasolabial folds

If your nasolabial folds are already deep, home care alone may not be enough to improve them. In these cases, depending on your skin condition, seeking dermatological treatment may be an option.

 

1) Filler

Fillers are a treatment used to improve wrinkles and sunken areas on the face. Injecting fillers into the nasolabial folds can restore volume to the sunken areas.

The Maypure filler event price is 50,000 won per 1cc, and the first-time visit event price is 29,000 won.

4. Q&A

1) I'm in my 20s. Can I get wrinkles on my arms?
: Nasolabial folds can appear even in your 20s. They can appear at a young age, depending on not only skin elasticity loss but also facial bone structure and volume distribution.

 

2) Does acupressure massage also help improve wrinkles?

: Although wrinkles may appear to improve temporarily, be careful as repeatedly rubbing the skin with a squeegee can irritate it and cause redness.

Nasolabial folds deepen not only due to simple aging but also due to a complex interplay of factors. If left untreated, these wrinkles can become even more pronounced, so it's best to begin treatment as soon as you notice nasolabial folds appearing.
