Nasolabial lines Treatment

Nasolabial folds, also known as smile lines or laugh lines, are creases that run from the sides of your nose to the corners of your mouth. These lines often deepen with age due to the natural loss of skin plumpness and cushioning, as well as the repeated action of surrounding facial muscles.

Over time, these lines can become more pronounced and permanent, especially if factors like smoking or sun exposure are present. At 41 South Bar in Banbury, our experienced and professional team is dedicated to helping you achieve a natural, refreshed look that subtly softens lines without noticeable alterations.

What are laugh lines?

In younger individuals, the nasolabial lines are usually only visible during smiling or laughing, disappearing when the face relaxes. However, with age, these lines may deepen and become permanent wrinkles that remain visible even when the face is at rest. They can vary in depth and symmetry.

Are smile lines common?

Smile lines are very common among people of all ages, genders, and races. As we age, these lines naturally become more prominent.

How does 41 South Bar help with nasolabial folds?

Smiling and other facial expressions can contribute to the development of nasolabial folds. Each time you smile or laugh, the underlying facial muscles contract, creating creases in the skin. Over time, these temporary creases can become more permanent, contributing to the appearance of nasolabial folds.

What increases nasolabial folds?

Factors like sun damage, smoking, and even certain dental procedures (such as tooth extractions) can speed up skin ageing, making nasolabial folds more prominent. Protecting your skin from sun exposure and avoiding smoking can help delay the progression of these lines.

Why choose Restylane® and Perlane®?

Restylane® and Perlane® are hyaluronic acid-based fillers that not only help restore lost volume but also provide added hydration, acting as an internal moisturiser. These treatments are designed to replace the natural hyaluronic acid our skin loses over time, softening the skin and giving it a rejuvenated look.

Is the treatment comfortable?

We aim to make your experience as comfortable as possible. An anaesthetic cream is applied before treatment, and the fillers we use also contain a local anaesthetic to further minimise discomfort during the procedure.

Reviews

Went to 41 South Bar today on an emergency appointment with chronic toothache. Fully expected to have a tooth out and a hefty bill. But no, my tooth was saved and my pension was saved. I’ll be back.

Always professional, service with a big smile. Exceptional level of care delivered from every member of staff, very accommodating and generous with time afforded to go through every stage of care. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

The treatment and care I received from every professional that I came into contact with at 41 South Bar was exceptional. Everyone was polite, friendly ad an excellent practitioner. Tom is an absolutely first class dentist with a pleasant “bed-side” manner. I am delighted with my implants. They couldn’t be better. Many thanks to all at 41 South Bar

My close family now all go to South Bar. I have been coming for years and the treatment has been excellent. My mum changed to Tom earlier this year and has been so delighted. She said she wished she had changed years ago. Even my dental phonic daughter in law travels from Reading to the practice.

The quality of Tom’s work and his knowledge and expertise are superb Staff are so friendly and Tom is so thoughtful about his work. A model dental practice.

Philip Scull

Tom was knowledgeable and helpful and friendly throughout. I have been suffering with pain in my teeth and Tom was able to provide a possible diagnosis and reassure me on many concerns that I have been having. The receptionists created a friendly atmosphere in the practice and they were helpful during phone calls.

May I say a very big thank you to all concerned in making my visit so safe this week. It was exemplary and was very much appreciated.

Very best wishes to all at 41 Southbar.

Smooth Away Nasolabial Lines At Banbury Dental Practice

At our affordable private dentist in Banbury, we understand that nasolabial lines can become more prominent with age, subtly affecting both appearance and confidence. Recognising that the nasolabial area is typically more of a fold than a simple line, we take a thoughtful, holistic approach to treatment. Instead of focusing solely on the fold itself, we often restore volume in surrounding areas to create a gentle lift, which naturally softens the appearance of laugh lines for a refreshed, youthful look.

We always ask what effect the client wants and 99% want a natural result, enough that people say they look well but not so that friends ask what they have done! This personalised approach ensures that our treatments blend seamlessly with your unique facial features, delivering a natural, rejuvenated appearance that feels authentically you.

Experience the transformative effects of our nasolabial line treatments at 41 South Bar and embrace a more confident, radiant version of yourself.
