What Are Nasolabial Fold Fillers?
Nasolabial fold fillers are hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal injections that restore volume beneath the smile lines running from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong in Seoul, Korea, LENA nasolabial fold filler starts at ₩149,000 per 1cc and imported fillers (Juvederm, Belotero) start at ₩359,000 per 1cc for first-visit patients. The procedure takes 15-30 minutes with results visible immediately and lasting 9-18 months.
Nasolabial folds, commonly called smile lines or laugh lines, are the two skin creases that run from the sides of the nose down to the corners of the mouth. These folds naturally deepen with age due to volume loss in the midface, collagen degradation, gravitational descent of the malar fat pad, and repetitive facial expressions. While nasolabial folds are a normal facial feature, deep or asymmetric folds can create an aged, tired, or unhappy appearance that does not reflect how patients actually feel. Dermal filler injection is the gold-standard non-surgical treatment for nasolabial folds worldwide. Hyaluronic acid fillers work by physically replacing lost subcutaneous volume beneath the fold crease, lifting the overlying skin back to a smoother, more youthful position. Unlike surgical facelifts, the procedure requires no general anesthesia, no incisions, and no prolonged recovery period. Korea has become one of the world’s most sought-after destinations for dermal filler treatments. Korean aesthetic clinics perform among the highest per-capita volumes of filler injections globally, resulting in exceptional physician skill levels. The Korean Food and Drug Administration (KFDA) maintains rigorous approval standards for injectable products, ensuring patient safety. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, every filler injection is performed by a licensed physician — Head Director Dr. Baek Seung-Jae or Dr. Son Hoon-Sung — never delegated to nurses or assistants. RE:BERRY offers multiple filler options tailored to the depth and severity of each patient’s nasolabial folds. For mild to moderate folds, LENA (a KFDA-approved Korean HA filler) provides excellent correction at an accessible price point. For deeper folds requiring structural support, premium imported options including Juvederm and Belotero deliver long-lasting results. For comprehensive nasolabial rejuvenation, RE:BERRY’s combination packages pair fillers with collagen-stimulating treatments like Radiesse and Juvelook Dermashine for multi-layer improvement that addresses both volume loss and skin quality simultaneously.
Nasolabial Fold Filler Before & After
Actual patient results from RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul. Individual outcomes vary based on fold depth and filler volume used.
How Nasolabial Fold Filler Treatment Works at RE:BERRY
A streamlined four-step protocol ensuring safe, precise, and natural-looking smile line correction.
Consultation & Facial Analysis
Your doctor evaluates nasolabial fold depth, midface volume loss, skin elasticity, and facial symmetry. The optimal filler type (LENA, Juvederm, Belotero, or Radiesse) and injection volume are determined based on your specific anatomy and aesthetic goals. Previous filler history is reviewed to avoid overcorrection. The entire consultation is available in 8 languages including English, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese.
Numbing & Skin Preparation
Topical anesthetic cream (lidocaine-based) is applied to the nasolabial fold area for 20-30 minutes to minimize discomfort. The treatment area is then cleansed with antiseptic solution and injection entry points are marked. The filler syringes used at RE:BERRY also contain integrated lidocaine for additional comfort during injection.
Precision Filler Injection
The doctor injects hyaluronic acid filler along the nasolabial fold using a micro-cannula or fine-needle technique depending on fold depth and tissue characteristics. For deep folds, a layered approach deposits filler at both the deep subcutaneous plane and the superficial dermis. The doctor continuously assesses symmetry and natural movement throughout the procedure. Treatment typically takes 15-20 minutes for both sides.
Molding, Assessment & Aftercare
After injection, the doctor gently molds the filler for optimal distribution and symmetry. You will be shown the results with a mirror and any fine adjustments are made immediately. Post-treatment soothing care is applied. You receive written aftercare instructions in your language — avoid intense exercise, saunas, and alcohol for 24-48 hours. Mild swelling typically resolves within 2-3 days. Results are immediately visible and continue to improve as swelling subsides.
What to Expect from Nasolabial Fold Fillers
- Immediate Results: Smile lines visibly smoothed right after treatment. No waiting period for initial improvement.
- Minimal Downtime: Return to daily activities immediately. Mild swelling resolves within 2-3 days. Ideal for tourists on tight schedules.
- Natural-Looking Correction: HA fillers integrate with your own tissue for soft, natural movement. No frozen or overfilled appearance.
- Reversible & Safe: Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed. Full reversibility within 24-48 hours.
- Long-Lasting Results: Effects last 9-18 months depending on filler type. Regular maintenance requires progressively less product.
- Physician-Only Injection: All injections at RE:BERRY are performed by licensed doctors — never nurses or technicians.

The Science Behind Nasolabial Fold Fillers
Understanding the anatomy, aging mechanisms, and evidence-based treatment approaches for nasolabial fold correction.
Why Nasolabial Folds Deepen With Age
Nasolabial folds form at the junction between the mobile lip area and the relatively fixed cheek tissue. With aging, several simultaneous processes cause these folds to deepen: resorption of the maxillary bone reduces midface skeletal support, the malar fat pad descends due to gravitational forces and weakening of retaining ligaments (particularly the zygomatic cutaneous ligament), subcutaneous fat atrophies in the medial cheek while accumulating lateral to the fold, and dermal collagen and elastin degrade from both intrinsic aging and UV exposure. These combined factors create a volumetric deficit beneath the fold crease.
Hyaluronic Acid Filler Mechanism of Action
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan found in human skin, with the highest concentrations in the dermis. Injectable HA fillers are cross-linked to resist enzymatic degradation, allowing them to persist in tissue for months. When injected beneath nasolabial folds, HA fillers physically occupy the volumetric deficit, lifting the overlying skin back to a smoother contour. Additionally, HA is highly hygroscopic — each molecule can bind up to 1,000 times its weight in water — providing ongoing hydration and volume support to the treated area.
Multi-Layer Injection Strategy
Modern nasolabial fold treatment employs a multi-layer approach rather than single-depth injection. Deep injections at the subcutaneous or supraperiosteal plane provide structural lift and address the fundamental volume deficit. Superficial injections at the dermal level smooth residual surface irregularities. This layered technique — combined with appropriate filler rheology selection (higher G-prime fillers for deep support, lower G-prime for superficial smoothing) — produces results that look natural both at rest and during facial animation.
Collagen-Stimulating Combination Protocols
Beyond immediate volume replacement, RE:BERRY’s comprehensive protocols incorporate collagen-stimulating agents. Radiesse (calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres in a carboxymethylcellulose gel carrier) provides immediate volume while stimulating Type I and Type III collagen production over 2-6 months. Juvelook Dermashine (dilute HA with polynucleotide) improves overall skin quality and thickness in the perinasal area. This multi-mechanism approach addresses both the symptom (visible fold) and underlying cause (collagen loss and skin thinning).

Hyaluronic acid fillers in the nasolabial fold area typically last 9-18 months. Duration depends on the specific product used (thicker fillers last longer), injection depth, individual metabolism rate, and lifestyle factors. Most patients return for touch-ups once a year.
Most patients report mild discomfort rated 2-3 out of 10. RE:BERRY applies topical numbing cream 20-30 minutes before treatment, and the fillers contain integrated lidocaine for additional comfort. Many patients describe the sensation as a brief pressure or pinch.
For deep nasolabial folds, higher G-prime (thicker) fillers like Juvederm Voluma or Radiesse provide the structural support needed. At RE:BERRY, the doctor assesses fold depth during consultation and recommends the optimal product. Deep folds often benefit from a multi-layer approach combining structural and smoothing fillers.
