Brief Answer: details below Detailed Answer: Hello Thanks for the query and photograph. The lines are appearing quiet deep. Derma abrasion can be a solution but it will take long time to show effects. Its better to go for fillers. Hyaluronic acid fillers are good and can give you desired result. Please meet a dermatologist and discuss regarding this. Let me know if you have any other doubts. Thank you
