These tips can help banish nasolabial folds
Tip 1: Massage Technique
Step 1: Bend your index finger, placing the second knuckle and the fleshy part of your finger just below the corners of your mouth (along the extended nasolabial line).
Step 2: Lift your fingers upward as if pinching your lips, moving along the nasolabial folds to the sides of your nose.
Step 3: Continue lifting your index finger to the sides of your nose, using the second knuckle to gently sweep up and down along the nasal bridge.
Step 4: Move your fingers upward toward the inner corners of your eyes and press firmly for 3–5 seconds.
Step 5: Support your left jaw with your left hand. Use your right hand to press the right cheek upward toward the outer eye corner for 3–5 seconds, then gradually release pressure while moving horizontally outward. Repeat on the opposite side.
Tip 2: Avoid Excessive Facial Expressions
Vivid facial expressions accelerate the appearance of nasolabial folds. While maintaining an optimistic mindset is important, ladies should avoid frequent laughter or overly exaggerated expressions.
Tip 3: Prioritize Skincare
Collagen-rich creams can replenish skin collagen through topical application. After cleansing, use anti-aging and wrinkle-reducing products to nourish your skin.
Tip 4: Prioritize Sun Protection
Excessive UV exposure harms skin in multiple ways—from darkening and roughening to potentially causing skin cancer. It's also a primary culprit behind premature aging. Direct sunlight damages deep-layer elastic fibers and collagen, leading to wrinkles. To prevent nasolabial folds, daily sun protection is essential.
Tip 5: Dietary Therapy
Increase intake of collagen-rich foods like pig's trotters and chicken skin to slow skin aging. Vegetables such as radishes, tomatoes, Chinese cabbage, and celery, along with fruits like apples, citrus, watermelon, and dates, are also beneficial.The vitamins and minerals in these foods enhance skin elasticity, suppleness, and radiance, helping prevent nasolabial folds.
Tip 6: Hyaluronic Acid Injections for Wrinkle Reduction
When injected into the skin, hyaluronic acid encapsulates collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and other cellular components into a unified matrix. This creates a structure with both elasticity and viscosity, delivering a natural, plump effect. It also stimulates collagen production to repair damaged collagen fibers, restoring youthful elasticity and achieving wrinkle reduction.
