The presence of nasal folds can often be seen in the young who are very facially expressive whilst it is more often seen with the passing years with other adults. The skin starts to hang so that the jowls sag and further aging can produce bone re-absorption and a feeling of discomfort.
This can often give a much older image of the face that in general is not the truth. If they continue downwards they are known as “The lines of bitterness”.
However the use of the latest infillings is the very best alternative to improve this aesthetic problem.

What kind of infillings are there?
Nowadays there exist different infilling materials allowing us to have an excellent result, with the latest generation of hydro-gels giving an excellent sensation to the touch and making a real prosthesis that is not reabsorbed. Another material is one of the latest and is absorbed over a long period and does not produce an inflammatory reaction.
Is the implant material safe?
The latest generation of materials is the best biocompatible type which is non-toxic, has a high stability, does not migrate and is not reabsorbed.
How do you place the implant?
The placing of the implants is through a simple injection.
Is there pain with implants?
In Clinica Foguet for the infilling of the folds we use a local anesthetic so that the patient does not feel pain. The anesthetic is similar to that used by the dentist.
Is it necessary to be admitted and to rest afterwards?
The implant are made as an out-patient, generally in 1 or 2 sessions, and you can return to daily life immediately.
What will I notice after the surgery?
You will have a slight swelling in the cheeks and the feeling that they are asleep. Both of these things will go in a few hours. Also little bruises can appear that can be concealed with make-up.
Is it necessary to have more than one session?
Yes it maybe necessary to have more than one session but that depends on each particular case.
Is the effect permanent or transitory?
The implants are permanent and not reabsorbed. The latest ones to appear are reabsorbed but over a long period of time.
Are you able to combine with the infilling of the lips?
Yes we are able to perform both in a short time. (Link with Lips – increasing the volume)
