In today’s episode I take you through what nasolabial lines are, how they appear and what can be done to treat them.
NASOLABIAL FOLDS
These are those folds that run alongside the sides of the nose to the corner of the mouth. Their presence is normal, however with time, they may deep leaving a saggy appearance.
HOW TO TREAT
There are several options that may be explored.
Non-permanent dermal fillers can be strategically used in this area to reduce the volume deficit.
The filler is strategically placed along the fold bearing in mind the underlying facial anatomy - including the facial artery. Treatment of the piriform fossa may also be included which lies at the root of the fold. Typically a needle or cannula may be used to reduce risks.
Other methods of treatment include fat transfers, thread lifts or face lifts.

As the festive season approaches it’s easy to get wrapped up in gifts and gatherings. For most, it is a time of joy and celebration. However, for others it can be a lonely and isolated time.
Those who are affected with social isolation can be uncomfortable asking for help, so reaching out, whether through a text or dropping by can make a substantial difference to them.
If you or someone you know is struggling during this time please pop by and see me in clinic, there is a wealth of help out there.
In today’s episode of Dr Nora I take you through the lip flip technique which uses anti-wrinkle injections to subtly make the upper lip larger. The same procedure also helps to smooth out lines above the lip known as barcodes lines or smokers lines. You’ll also see some before and after pictures of each procedure.

If you’re considering injectables in time for Christmas or the new year it’s important to remember that anti-wrinkle treatments take full effect after 2 weeks. Filler may take up to 4 weeks to fully settle in. We usually recommended leaving 6 weeks prior to a big event.

Yawning, heavy eyes, fuzzy vision and day dreaming are all warning signs of tiredness. ⚠️
Dinking coffee, opening the windows or turning up the radio are all temporary fixes. If you’re on a long journey and you feel tired stop. Take a break. Sleep.
