Lift Your Cheeks and Revitalise Your Appearance
It can be disconcerting when the signs of the passing years become ingrained in your face. You may be worried about losing volume around your cheeks, have a tired appearance with under-eye hollows, or have wrinkles along the inside edges.
In such cases, you may think a surgical facelift may be the only option. Thankfully, there are less invasive techniques; nasolabial fold fillers can help restore your natural beauty without looking overdone or unnatural and without the need for surgery.
Using dermal fillers, we can give you a younger, fresher, and healthier appearance focusing on the cheeks and lower face without giving them a “puffy” or “pillow-face” look. This treatment is commonly referred to as nasolabial fold fillers.

How Nasolabial Fold
Filler Treatment Works
Once upon a time, you may have had full and healthy-looking cheeks, which helped to give you a beautiful, youthful complexion.
Once upon a time, you may have had full and healthy-looking cheeks, which helped to give you a beautiful, youthful complexion. As you age, collagen and elastin in your cheeks become depleted. This leads to a flatter, sunken appearance. You may notice a more drawn, gaunt, and aged look. A sudden drop in weight or smoking can also speed up the signs of ageing.
Dermal filler treatment is a non-surgical way of addressing sunken cheeks. It replaces lost volume and gives you a fresher, younger appearance.
Before the procedure, we’ll carefully plan the intricate details and identify the specific sites that will receive the injection. Then, once we have planned the treatment, we’ll inject the filler.
Dermal fillers use hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance that hydrates the skin. This gives the skin around your cheeks renewed plumpness and elasticity. The entire process is relatively brief and minimally invasive.

Manochithra was amazing sorting my root canal treatment she was so caring and persisted until my pain was sorted. I’ve been at love teeth for a few years and found them so professional yet friendly. Thank you love teeth. Tina
My HydraFacial at Love Skin was brilliant. The clinic has such a professional vibe, and the team were so friendly and accommodating. My skin felt super clean, smooth, and hydrated afterwards. I dropped one star only because I wish the effects lasted longer – but honestly, I’ll be back for another soon!
I don’t have a bad word to say about Love Teeth North Cheam & the Stonecot branch. I’ve been lucky enough to have experienced and been cared for in both branches. I’m now at the end of my Invisalign treatment and I can say hand on heart it’s been such a positive experience from start to finish over the past 8 months & have felt so relieved I chose Love Teeth for this treatment. Everyone from the reception staff, to the hygienist, all the dental nurses assisting, and to my amazing Invisalign dentist Michael have been so friendly, welcoming, caring and approachable. They will always go out their way to give you the best experience possible. Both branches are very modern, bright and sleek when you walk in, particularly the new Stonecot branch which has just opened, where they even have Netflix on the ceiling for you to watch while getting your teeth done, which is very fun! Even the Love Teeth bags your given are lovely (which sounds ridiculous) but it’s the little touches, and all very well organised. My dentist Michael has been so brilliant, he’s been so thorough with his care, honest, he takes his time explaining things and has been so reassuring. I’ve always felt in such safe hands with his knowledge and treatment, and would always listen to his recommendations. Thank you so much to all the team & special thanks to Michael – it’s definitely been an experience & I’m so glad I chose Love Teeth, will absolutely recommend!! You won’t regret it if you choose Love Teeth!
I took my anxious son, who had been unsuccessful at treatment with his previous dentist. The team and Dr Woo Young were absolutely fantastic, they were so calm and patient that my son had all his treatment and is happy to go back to see them! Thank you so much, I am very appreciative!
Thanks Dr Emmanuel Clozza for my new implant – really pleased with the result. Dr Clozza Love Teeth Stonecot Hill is a true professional and the best dentist. Everybody at the Stonecot Hill Surgery makes you feel at ease – Ann Gardner.
Having not been to dentist in years I was very nervous but my dentist Laraeb Nawaz made me feel totally at ease and talked me through everything that I needed done, she is lovely and a credit to Love Teeth. All the staff have been so nice, welcoming and attentive. Thank you for all looking after me.
Yes I would definitely recommend this practice! I’ve just had root canal treatment and a crown by Dr. Sheena and her fantastic and caring assistant Maria! Both made me feel at ease and both very professional, excellent work, my teeth feel great! I can not recommend this practice enough.
2 fillings today, in and out in just 35 minutes. Quick and completely pain free. Great friendly team. By far the best dentist I’ve ever been to. 🙂

Frequently asked questions
What Are Nasolabial Folds?
Nasolabial folds run along the inside of your cheeks from the bottom of your nose down to the corner of your mouth. Although everyone has these lines, they will deepen as you get older.
In addition to the natural ageing process, the prominence of these lines can be increased as a result of smoking or sudden weight loss brought about through crash diets.
What Are Dermal Fillers?
Made from pharmaceutical-grade hyaluronic acid, dermal fillers hydrate, plump, and refresh your skin.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the fluid surrounding your joints and eyes. It decreases swelling and contributes to the youthful appearance of your skin. However, as you age, the natural production of hyaluronic acid begins to slow down.
Dermal fillers are a fantastic way of replenishing lost hyaluronic acid and rehydrating areas of your face.
Do Nasolabial Fold Fillers Hurt?
We always go out of our way to make your treatment as comfortable as possible. In fact, many of our patients comment on how little pain they experience during and after the procedure.
What Can I Expect Following Nasolabial Fold Fillers?
Following nasolabial fold filler treatment, you may experience some bruising or redness around the injection site. However, this usually only lasts for a day or two. Similarly, the treatment area may feel firmer than usual for a few days after the procedure. It may be tempting to rub the treatment area, but you should resist the temptation for at least five days.
After treatment, avoiding too much sun exposure or strenuous exercise for the next two days is important. You should also avoid applying makeup to the injection site for 24 hours after the procedure.
Although there is very little pain or discomfort associated with dermal fillers, you may want to take painkillers. Remember that you shouldn’t take ibuprofen or aspirin for a few days after your treatment.
Are There Any Side Effects to Nasolabial Fold Fillers?
Typically, the most common side effect associated with dermal fillers is swelling. That said, you should be prepared for a bit of bruising and even small lumps under your skin. All of these symptoms will disappear on their own over time.
We want you to feel completely at ease while undergoing this non-surgical aesthetic treatment. However, we can discuss these further during your initial consultation if you have any worries about potential side effects.
How Long Does It Take to Recover After Nasolabial Fold Fillers?
The nasolabial fold filler recovery process is relatively short. Typically, any swelling or redness will last for a couple of days. After your treatment, you can go about your normal activities straight away; however, it’s important to avoid doing anything too strenuous for two days.
How Soon Will the Results of Nasolabial Fold Fillers Be Visible?
You’ll be glad to know that the signs of ageing around the cheeks and nasolabial folds will start reversing immediately after your treatment. The process will give you naturally fuller cheeks. Your friends and family will undoubtedly notice how healthy and well-rested you look.
How Long Do the Effects of Dermal Fillers Last?
Over time, your body will naturally break down the hyaluronic acid used in your nasolabial fold filler treatment. The exact time this takes will vary; however, it’s usually between six months and two years.
It will be possible to replenish the hyaluronic acid by revisiting us for a top-up treatment every so often at a later date.
Are Nasolabial Fold Fillers Right for Me?
Nasolabial fold fillers can enhance the appearance of sunken cheeks, reducing the signs of ageing in the process. It does this in a minimally invasive and non-surgical way.
We’ll never undertake a procedure that you’re not completely comfortable with. During your initial consultation, you’ll have the opportunity to ask us any questions that you may have so that you can make an informed decision about your treatment.
