Q: Is there a nasolabial fold exercise I can do to improve their appearance?

A: The idea of fixing a cosmetic problem through exercises alone always sounds like a nice solution, right? After all, it may be a little work, but exercise is certainly much cheaper than a trip to the surgeons office! But is there such thing as nasolabial fold exercises that will help to minimize their appearance? Here’s what I found…

Do nasolabial fold exercises exist?
The first step was to find out whether or not such thing even exists! I’ve heard of using a facial exerciser, but that was more for the chin and neck area. So, I browsed the net to see what I could find… low and behold there are some people who claim that it really is possible to improve the nasolabial fold this way!

Do they really work?
I am skeptical of at least some of these claims. For example, on one forum I saw a raving review of a facial exerciser for nasolabial folds, but the user only had to posts and it appeared to be a veiled advertisement to me. Also, there are dozens of muscles in the face, but I don’t know how any of them could help these folds specifically.

So overall, I’m extremely skeptical of whether or not nasolabial fold exercises will help. However, I have heard good results overall for wrinkles when using facial exercisers (devices to exercise various facial muscles). I suppose adding one of those to your beauty routine wouldn’t be a bad idea, but I think using the right wrinkle filler cream is also a crucial component that cannot be left out.

Which are the best wrinkle fillers?
Personally, I’ve had great success using hyaluronic acid serum, which I apply twice daily. It’s an ingredient is naturally made by our skin but as we get older, there’s less produced. It plays an important part in the volume of your skin. In fact, it is said the hyaluronic acid can absorb its own weight in water, up to 1000 times over! So with that in mind, it’s pretty obvious why hyaluronic acid skin care works so well to fill in nasolabial folds.
