Nasolabial Fold Fillers in Korea — Smile Line Correction at RE:BERRY
Nasolabial fold fillers at RE:BERRY Myeongdong use cross-linked hyaluronic acid gel injected precisely along the nasolabial crease to restore mid-face volume, soften smile lines, and create a naturally youthful contour. Head Director Seung-Jae Baek combines deep structural support with superficial smoothing techniques for nasolabial fold filler results that last 12-18 months. Imported filler 1cc starts from ₩359,000 at our 365-day clinic, 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station.
What Are Nasolabial Fold Fillers?
Nasolabial fold fillers are hyaluronic acid gel injections placed along the smile lines running from the nose to the mouth corners, restoring volume loss and softening creases within 20 minutes at RE:BERRY Myeongdong Seoul, with imported filler starting from ₩359,000 per 1cc syringe.
Nasolabial fold fillers remain the most requested non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedure among international patients visiting Seoul. The nasolabial folds — commonly called smile lines or laugh lines — deepen with age as mid-face fat pads descend and collagen degrades, creating visible creases that add years to your appearance. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, nasolabial fold filler treatment addresses both the superficial crease and the underlying volume deficit using a layered injection approach. Head Director Seung-Jae Baek selects from premium cross-linked HA fillers including Juvederm Voluma for deep structural support and Belotero Balance for fine-line smoothing in the superficial dermis. This dual-layer technique for nasolabial fold fillers prevents the overfilled, unnatural look that single-depth injection can cause. For patients with significant mid-face volume loss contributing to deeper nasolabial folds, cheek filler augmentation is often combined to lift the fold from above, reducing the amount of direct crease filler needed and creating more natural results. RE:BERRY Myeongdong also offers Radiesse biostimulatory filler for patients seeking longer-lasting nasolabial fold correction with collagen-stimulating properties.

How Nasolabial Fold Fillers Work at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
A 4-step protocol combining precision injection techniques with premium HA fillers for natural nasolabial fold correction.
Facial Assessment & Filler Selection for Nasolabial Folds
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek evaluates your nasolabial fold depth using the Lemperle Wrinkle Assessment Scale (grades 1-5), assesses mid-face volume loss, skin elasticity, and dynamic movement patterns when smiling. Based on this analysis, the optimal filler type and injection depth are determined. Shallow folds (grade 1-2) may need only 1cc of Belotero Balance, while deeper folds (grade 3-5) benefit from a layered combination of Juvederm Voluma for deep structural support plus a softer filler for surface smoothing. The consultation is available in 8 languages and takes approximately 15 minutes.
Numbing & Preparation
A topical anesthetic cream (lidocaine 4%) is applied to the nasolabial fold area for 20-30 minutes to ensure maximum comfort. Most premium fillers also contain integrated lidocaine for pain reduction during injection. The treatment area is cleansed with antiseptic solution and injection points are marked with a surgical marker. For patients with low pain tolerance, optional dental nerve block anesthesia can be administered. Patients combining nasolabial fold fillers with full-face filler packages receive extended numbing for all treatment areas.
Layered Nasolabial Fold Filler Injection
The nasolabial fold filler injection proceeds in two layers. First, a firm HA filler is placed deep in the subcutaneous plane using a cannula technique to provide structural lift and reduce the fold from beneath. Second, a softer filler is micro-injected into the superficial dermis along the visible crease to smooth the surface. This layered approach to nasolabial fold fillers delivers natural-looking results that maintain facial expressiveness. Dr. Baek uses gentle massage between injection points to ensure seamless blending. Total injection time is 15-20 minutes for bilateral nasolabial fold treatment.
Post-Injection Assessment & Aftercare
Immediately after injection, Dr. Baek performs symmetry assessment with the patient upright and smiling to evaluate natural movement. Minor touch-ups are made if needed. Cold compresses are applied to minimize swelling. You receive a written aftercare guide in your language with instructions to avoid extreme heat, alcohol, and strenuous exercise for 24 hours. Most patients see 80-90% of the final result immediately, with full settling by day 14. A follow-up photo is recommended at 2 weeks to document your nasolabial fold filler results.
What to Expect from Nasolabial Fold Fillers at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
- Instant Volume Restoration: HA fillers provide immediate visible improvement in nasolabial fold depth, with 80-90% of the final result seen on the same day.
- Natural Facial Expression: Layered injection technique preserves full smile movement — no frozen or overfilled appearance.
- Minimal Downtime: Most patients experience only mild swelling for 24-48 hours. Return to normal activities immediately.
- Reversible & Safe: HA fillers can be dissolved with hyaluronidase if needed, providing a safety net that permanent fillers cannot offer.
- Collagen Stimulation: Premium cross-linked HA fillers stimulate natural collagen production around the gel matrix, extending results beyond the filler’s lifespan.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Immediate volume improvement visible. Mild swelling and possible bruising at injection points. Nasolabial folds appear 80-90% corrected. |
| Day 3-5 | Swelling resolves. Filler integrates with surrounding tissue. Any bruising can be covered with makeup. |
| Week 2 | Final result visible. HA gel fully hydrated and settled. Optimal time for follow-up assessment photos. |
| Month 3-6 | Results stable. Natural collagen formation around filler particles begins extending structural support. |
| Month 9-12 | HA filler begins gradual biodegradation. Results still clearly visible in most patients. |
| Month 12-18 | Touch-up session recommended to maintain optimal nasolabial fold correction. Repeat treatments typically require less filler. |

The Science Behind Nasolabial Fold Fillers
Peer-reviewed research supporting the safety and efficacy of hyaluronic acid fillers for nasolabial fold correction.
Anatomy of the Nasolabial Fold
The nasolabial fold is formed by the attachment of the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS) to the overlying dermis, creating a boundary between the cheek and upper lip. Age-related volume loss in the deep medial cheek fat pad (Ristow’s space) and descent of the malar fat pad increases fold depth. Understanding this layered anatomy is critical for effective nasolabial fold filler placement — superficial injection alone fails to address the underlying structural deficit.
Hyaluronic Acid Filler Mechanisms
Cross-linked hyaluronic acid fillers restore volume through both direct space-filling and osmotic hydration, attracting water molecules to maintain plumpness for months. Modern fillers with Vycross (Juvederm) or CPM (Belotero) cross-linking technology provide improved tissue integration, reduced post-injection swelling, and significantly longer duration compared to earlier formulations. The degree of cross-linking determines the filler’s G-prime (elasticity), with higher G-prime fillers suited for deep structural support in the nasolabial fold and lower G-prime for superficial crease smoothing.
Clinical Evidence for Nasolabial Fold Fillers
Large-scale clinical trials have consistently demonstrated the safety and efficacy of HA fillers for nasolabial fold correction. Narins et al. reported significant Wrinkle Severity Rating Scale improvement sustained at 24 weeks with Juvederm Ultra Plus in 439 subjects. Fagien et al. demonstrated that Vycross-technology Juvederm Voluma maintained correction of nasolabial folds for up to 18 months in a 283-subject trial. The safety profile of modern HA fillers for nasolabial fold treatment shows adverse events limited primarily to injection-site reactions that resolve within 14 days.
Narins RS et al. Dermatol Surg. 2010;36(S1):766-774. doi:10.1111/j.1524-4725.2010.01558.x
Fagien S et al. Dermatol Surg. 2013;39(11):1613-1620. doi:10.1111/dsu.12301
Rohrich RJ et al. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2011;128(4):325e-336e. doi:10.1097/PRS.0b013e3182268c1b
Beyond volume replacement, HA fillers activate fibroblast mechanotransduction pathways, stimulating new collagen type I and III synthesis around the gel matrix over 4-12 weeks post-injection. This neocollagenesis effect explains why repeat nasolabial fold filler treatments often require 30-40% less product — the previously stimulated collagen provides residual structural support even after the original HA has been fully metabolized by endogenous hyaluronidase enzymes. This progressive improvement with each treatment session makes nasolabial fold fillers one of the most cost-effective long-term facial rejuvenation strategies available at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.

“The Radiesse plus Belotero combination was perfect for my deep nasolabial folds. Immediate improvement and the texture of my skin around the fold area actually improved over the following weeks.”
