Nose-to-Mouth Shadow & Midface Hollowing in Gangnam

Quick answer: A shadow beside the nose or above the smile line often comes from midface volume loss and a recessed area at the base of the nose rather than a deep fold. Restoring support with filler or collagen stimulators and lifting the cheek softens it. AMRED Clinic in Cheongdam, Gangnam plans midface support from 3D analysis.
