Smile Line | Laugh Lines Treatments
What Are the Smile Lines (Nasolabial Folds)?
Smile Lines are the lines or creases that stretch from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. With age, these lines may become more noticeable and enduring.
Are Smile Lines Common?
Smile lines are widely observed among individuals of all genders and ethnicities, especially as one grows older.
What Causes Smile Lines?
Aging
With age, cheekbones may lose volume and loose skin in the area may be affected by gravity.
Smoking
Smoking leads to the degradation of collagen and elastin in the skin.
Sun damage
Exposure to the sun’s rays can also degrade collagen and elastin.
Weight loss or gain
Significant weight loss may result in excess, sagging skin. If you experience weight gain, your cheeks may become fuller. Both scenarios can emphasize the appearance of smile Lines.
The accumulation of substances within pores results in the formation of pimples. This process induces inflammation, characterized by pain and swelling. Additionally, inflammation can manifest as skin discoloration, such as redness surrounding a pimple.
What Are the Signs of Laugh Lines?
Laugh lines manifest as creases in the skin extending from both sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. In youth, these creases may only be noticeable when smiling or laughing, disappearing when the face is at rest. However, these lines may deepen as time passes, evolving into permanent wrinkles visible regardless of facial expression. They can exhibit symmetrical or asymmetrical patterns.
Prevent the permanent etching of smile lines caused by repeated facial expressions, collagen loss, and fat reduction. Address deep smile lines starting from your nostrils down to the corners of your mouth. Maintain high elastin levels, hydrate the skin from within, and ensure a smile’s lasting effects don’t permanently settle on your face.
