The lines from nose to mouth tempt people to fill them directly, and that is exactly what looks bulky. They are a shadow cast by a cheek that has dropped; lift the cheek, and the shadow lifts with it. I treat the cause, not the crease. The softer face comes from above the line you see.Dr Dana Beiki
About this treatment
The lines from nose to mouth deepen as the cheek above descends. They are best softened by restoring the cheek that caused them, with only a little filler in the fold itself, a natural result, never an over-filled one.
The science
The material is hyaluronic acid, a sugar your own skin already makes to hold water and volume. The gel is cross-linked so it lasts, then placed at a chosen depth to rebuild the support that time and bone change have taken away. It draws in a little water, integrates with your tissue, and gives back structure rather than simply filling a line. Because it is hyaluronic acid, it can be dissolved with an enzyme if it is ever needed, which is a large part of why Dr Beiki chooses it over anything permanent. Where it sits, and how much, matters far more than the syringe.
The most useful thing a clinic can tell you is whether a treatment is wrong for you. Here is who tends to do well, and where Dr Beiki would send you elsewhere. He would rather lose the booking than do the wrong thing.
Made for
Where it isn’t the answer
Fine surface lines and crepey skin. Filler rebuilds structure; it does not improve the quality of the skin itself, which is the work of skin boosters or polynucleotides.
An under-eye with true eye-bags or fluid. Filling the trough here deepens the shadow rather than lifting it, and Dr Beiki will tell you so plainly.
Active skin infection at the site, or a history of severe allergy or anaphylaxis.
A wish for a different face. Filler restores your own scaffolding; if the brief is to look like someone else, this is not the clinic for it.
Most of what filler does well is structural, and most of what goes wrong comes from chasing the line instead of the cause. A few things worth knowing.

The fold from nose to mouth is not a crease to be packed out; it is a shadow cast by a cheek that has dropped. Lift the cheek and the shadow lifts with it. Fill the fold itself and you get a ridge, not a softer face. The cause sits above the line you can see.


It is not only skin that changes. The eye socket widens, the jaw and chin quietly recede, and the face loses its scaffold from underneath. Replacing that support, rather than its surface, is what reads as rested rather than filled, and why a millimetre on the bone can do more than a millilitre in the skin.
The safety net
Hyaluronic acid is the one material that can be undone. If a result is ever wrong, an enzyme dissolves it within minutes. Nothing permanent offers that.

« My first ever time getting anti-wrinkle treatment, after having filler elsewhere, and the experience was night and day. Dana explained everything and listened to me. I felt very looked after and it didn't hurt a bit. »
