Smile line fillers use hyaluronic acid gel to soften the nasolabial folds, the lines that run from the sides of the nose to the corners of the mouth. At Egg Clinic in Sinsa, Gangnam, a doctor decides whether to fill the fold directly, support the cheeks, or both; results are visible immediately, downtime is minimal and the effect typically lasts around 9–12 months.

What are smile line fillers?
Smile lines, or nasolabial folds, are a natural part of facial anatomy, but they often deepen with age as the cheeks lose volume and descend and the skin loses collagen. Deep folds can make the face look tired or older than you feel, and they often become more noticeable in photos or under overhead lighting. Sun damage and weight changes can make them deeper.
Smile line fillers place hyaluronic acid filler beneath the fold to lift and smooth it. Because cheek volume loss often drives the fold, the doctor may place some filler in the mid-cheek instead, using cheek fillers to lift the area indirectly for a more natural result. Smile lines often appear together with marionette lines, and both can be planned in one visit.
Who is a good candidate for smile line fillers?
- Visible nasolabial folds at rest
- Mild to moderate volume loss in the mid-face
- People who look tired despite feeling rested
- Anyone wanting a natural refresh without surgery
Very deep folds caused mainly by sagging skin may need a lifting treatment as well as, or instead of, filler. Treatment should be postponed during pregnancy or breastfeeding, with an infection near the area, or with a known allergy to filler ingredients. The doctor will explain the most suitable approach at consultation.

How the treatment works
-
Consultation
The doctor looks at your folds and cheek volume to decide where filler will give the most natural improvement.
-
Numbing
Numbing cream is applied, and the filler usually contains lidocaine for comfort.
-
Injection
Filler is placed under the folds or in the mid-cheek with a fine needle or cannula and gently shaped.
-
Aftercare
Mild swelling or bruising may last a few days. Avoid massage, saunas and alcohol for about 24–48 hours.
Tips for international patients
- Send a photo of your face at rest and smiling on WhatsApp before your trip.
- Ask whether cheek support would give a more natural result than filling the fold alone.
- Allow a day or two before flying in case of minor bruising.
- Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning supplements for a few days beforehand.
Frequently asked questions
How long do smile line fillers last?
Results typically last around 9–12 months, depending on the filler, the amount used and your metabolism.
Do smile line fillers hurt?
Most people feel only mild discomfort thanks to numbing cream and lidocaine in the filler.
Is there downtime after smile line fillers?
Most people return to normal activities the same day. Mild swelling or small bruises can last a few days.
Will filler make my face look puffy?
The doctor uses a measured amount and may lift the cheeks rather than overfilling the fold, which helps avoid a puffy look.
Can smile lines be treated without filler?
Lifting treatments and skin boosters can help in some cases, especially where sagging is the main cause. The doctor may combine options.
How much do smile line fillers cost in Seoul?
The price depends on the filler and amount needed, so the doctor confirms it at consultation. See our published prices on the filler price list.
