Smile lines—also known as nasolabial folds—can deepen over time as volume naturally decreases in the cheeks and midface. Smile line filler offers a subtle, nonsurgical way to soften these folds and refresh the area without changing your natural expression.
Smile line treatments are performed by Julie Lorenzo, the board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner behind Jewels x Aesthetics in Parkland, Florida. Julie is known for her calm presence and commitment to giving you natural facial balancing results.
What Is Smile Line Filler?
Smile line filler uses hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers to replenish lost volume around the nasolabial folds. Rather than “erasing” lines—which can look unnatural—filler gently lifts the area and softens the crease, keeping your smile expressive and authentic.
Benefits of Smile Line Filler
- Softens deeper folds around the nose and mouth
- Restores gentle support to the midface
- Reduces shadows and improves overall brightness
- Creates a smoother, refreshed look
- Keeps natural movement and expression intact
- Offers immediate results with little to no downtime
Why Smile Lines Form
Smile lines become more prominent for a few reasons:
- Loss of midface volume
- Natural aging of the skin
- Genetics
- Repetitive smiling (a good thing!)
- Decreased collagen over time
Julie always evaluates the root cause before injecting—it prevents overtreating the fold when the real solution may lie in supporting the cheeks or improving overall facial balance.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Notice deepening folds from nose to mouth
- Want to soften the lines without freezing your smile
- Prefer a natural, conservative approach
- Want immediate improvement with minimal downtime
- Are looking for subtle refinement rather than a dramatic change
Julie will give you an honest assessment to determine whether smile line filler alone is appropriate or if a combined approach will lead to the best results.
What Fillers Are Used?
Julie selects fillers based on your anatomy and how much flexibility or support you need. Options may include:
- Restylane Refyne: Flexible filler for mild to moderate folds
- Restylane Defyne: Supportive filler for deeper creases
- Restylane L: Smooth, subtle refinement
- Versa: Soft volume and hydration when appropriate
Each formula blends naturally with skin movement, which is essential for such an expressive area.
The Smile Line Filler Treatment Process
Your appointment begins with a conversation about your goals, facial movement, and overall facial proportions. Julie examines the depth of the folds, cheek support, and how your expression changes the area.
During treatment, small injections are placed to gently lift or soften the folds. Julie always takes a conservative, layered approach—adding structure only where it’s needed to avoid puffiness or heaviness around the mouth.
Most patients feel only mild pressure, thanks to the lidocaine in most HA fillers.
Recovery and Results
Smile line filler usually involves minimal downtime. You may experience mild swelling or small bruises that fade over the next few days.
Timeline
- Immediately: Lifted, softened folds
- 48 hours: Swelling improves
- 1 week: Filler settles into a natural result
Results typically last 9–12 months depending on the filler and your anatomy.
Smile Line Filler and Facial Balancing
The midface plays a major role in how smile lines appear. When the cheeks lose volume, folds deepen—even if the area itself doesn’t need much filler. Julie often evaluates whether cheek augmentation, chin contouring, or subtle lift techniques will support a more natural, long-lasting result.
