A nasolabial cyst (NLC) is a rare, non-odontogenic cyst, usually located unilaterally in the nasolabial fold. The incidence is increasing in women and adult age groups. Bilateral nasolabial cysts are rare and the number of cases reported in the literature is limited. NLC emerges as a slowly growing painless swelling in the nasolabial region and superior gingivolabial sulcus. It is generally asymptomatic. It may cause wiping in the nasolabial folds, facial deformity, and nasal obstruction as a result of elevation on the nasal base. Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography can divulge the cystic character of the NLCs in more elaboration and reliability, their relationships with the nasal alas and maxillary bone, and bone involvement that facilitates the diagnosis. The sublabial approach is the most popular and well-appointed operation, in which a larger surgical area and a full resection are secured further. Here, we report a 21-year-old woman who consulted our clinic with nasal obstruction and face swelling, who was later diagnosed with bilateral NLC upon pathological examination. Unlike its precedents seen in the literature with bilateral NLC, the young age of the patient renders this case unique.
