Nasolabial fold
Everything you need to know about treatment at Diamond Aesthetics
The nasolabial fold is one of the most common facial features that make people appear older. These wrinkles run from the wings of the nose down to the corners of the mouth and develop over time as a result of natural ageing processes, genetic factors and external influences such as UV radiation. At Diamond Aesthetics in Düsseldorf, we offer you various modern methods to treat the nasolabial fold so that you feel young and fresh again.

The development of nasolabial folds
Nasolabial folds often develop as a result of repeated facial expressions, especially when the cheeks sag over the years. The main reason for this is the loss of skin elasticity and a weakening of the muscles in the areas around the nose, cheeks and upper lip. As the face is formed by a total of 26 muscles, nasolabial folds can develop to varying degrees in different people. These wrinkles often make the face look older and more serious. With increasing age, the nasolabial folds deepen and in some cases can become so pronounced that they are referred to as nasolabial furrows.
The solution for smoother skin and more self-confidence
One of the most proven methods for treating nasolabial folds is injecting hyaluronic acid. This substance is produced naturally in the body. It plumps up the skin and smoothes wrinkles from the inside out. The results are immediately visible and the effect usually lasts for several months. At our Diamond Aesthetics clinic, this treatment is a frequent and popular method.
Hyaluron and Botox : The difference
Hyaluronic acid acts directly on the structure of the skin by moisturizing and smoothing the skin, which is particularly effective for deeper wrinkles such as the nasolabial fold. Botox, on the other hand, acts on the underlying muscles by inhibiting their activity, thereby reducing wrinkles caused by muscle movement. The main difference is that hyaluronic acid fills the tissue from the inside, while Botox acts on muscle movement to prevent new wrinkles.
Hyaluron or Botox - which is better?
In many cases, hyaluronic acid is preferred as it creates immediate volume effects. Our doctors will be happy to advise you on the various options and work with you to create a treatment plan that is tailored to your skin and your wishes. In some cases, it may make sense to combine different methods to achieve an optimal result.
Costs
The cost of injecting the nasolabial fold depends on several factors, such as the amount of hyaluronic acid used and the depth of the wrinkles. As a rule, the costs range between 300 and 600 euros per session.
Risks and side effects
As with any cosmetic treatment, there are potential risks with injections . However, these are minimal when applied correctly. Possible side effects:
- include slight swelling
- Redness in the treated area
- small bruises (rare)
Conclusion: Nasolabial fold treatment at Diamond Aesthetics
Having the nasolabial fold treated is an effective method of achieving a younger, fresher appearance. Thanks to modern injection techniques with hyaluronic acid or Botox, wrinkles can be reduced and the skin tightened.
