Smile Lines Manhattan, New York

As a testament to a life well-lived, smile lines, also known as nasolabial folds, are the imprints of joy and laughter. However, if you seek to soften the visible signs of aging while preserving the authenticity of your expression, our tailored treatments for smile lines offer the perfect solution.

What are smile lines?

Smile lines, or nasolabial folds as they're clinically known, are the creases that gracefully extend from the sides of your nose down to the corners of your mouth. These lines tend to become more prominent over time due to factors like the natural aging process, sun exposure, and repetitive facial expressions. At Ageless by Renata, we understand the subtleties of treating smile lines, ensuring precision and artistry for a beautifully refreshed and natural-looking outcome.

How are smile lines treated?

Dermal fillers

Our seasoned injectors utilize top-tier dermal fillers to effectively diminish smile lines. These fillers, often rich in hyaluronic acid, are meticulously injected into the folds, adding volume and softening the appearance of lines. This results in a smoother, rejuvenated complexion that radiates youthfulness.

BOTOX and Dysport

Dynamic wrinkles like smile lines can be eased with neuromodulators like BOTOX and Dysport. These injections relax the underlying muscles, reducing the formation of lines and wrinkles. Renata's precise technique guarantees a natural-looking outcome while preserving your ability to express yourself freely.

Collagen-boosting treatments

At Ageless by Renata, we go beyond merely filling lines. We offer treatments that stimulate collagen production, like microneedling and laser therapies, which enhance skin texture and gradually reduce the depth of smile lines.

Thread lifts

In specific cases, our thread lift treatments may provide a non-surgical solution for a subtle yet effective lift. Specially designed threads are introduced under the skin to lift and tighten, lessening the appearance of smile lines and restoring a youthful contour to your face.

What types of dermal fillers are used for smile lines?

There are a variety of dermal fillers that can be used to reduce the appearance of smile lines. Here are some of the most common ones:

Hyaluronic acid fillers: These are among the most popular types of fillers. They come under various brand names, including Juvéderm and Restylane. Their high water-binding properties help add a natural-looking plumpness to the area being treated.
Calcium hydroxylapatite: This substance is naturally found in human bones. It's used in a denser form for treating deeper lines and wrinkles.
Polyalkylimide, polylactic acid, polymethyl-methacrylate microspheres (PMMA): These long-lasting fillers are often used for treating deep wrinkles, including smile lines.
Botulinum toxin injectables: Although not a dermal filler, injectables like BOTOX and Xeomin can also be used to treat smile lines.
