Cosmetic Treatment
Nasolabial folds are naturally occurring lines that start from the base of the nostrils to the corner of the mouth. The folds are made up of bundles of fibrous tissue and muscle, as people age and the skin loses laxity and volume the underlying structure becomes more obvious.Â
Additional factors such as smoking, UV damage, rapid fluctuations in weight and the effects of laughing/teeth clenching over decades can make the nasolabial line more prominent. Dermal filler placement is a less drastic option than surgery. Dermal filler has minimal side effects and immediate results.
Dermal fillers work by imitating a naturally occurring substance within your body – a sugar molecule that exists naturally in almost all living organisms. Its normal function is to bind water so it acts as a lubricant and shock absorber in movable parts of the body, such as joints. It is also important for the transport of nutrients and in regulating water balance in skin. By boosting your skin with this naturally occurring substance, dermal fillers revitalise and add volume to the area instantly. This diminishes the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and gives a natural softer look. The gel we use is very tissue-friendly and closely resembles that which exists in the body.

Due to Australian regulations, we cannot name medicine online. We only stock premium TGA approved brands of dermal fillers.
Cheek fillers last anywhere from 12-18 months. The body will break down the product over a number of months. Every patient’s body will do this at a different rate, hence the varied longevity.
At One Cosmetic we like to start small with all fillers and build. Aesthetic treatments are not a race and can be performed in multiple sessions. Your practitioner will guide you through the amount needed to achieve your goals.
