WHAT IS TREATMENT FOR SMOKERS’ LINES?

Treatment for smokers’ lines is aimed at reducing the small vertical wrinkles that appear on the top lip. This concern is often the direct result of the ageing process, which can be accelerated through facial movement and lifestyle choices, such as smoking, alcohol consumption and sun exposure. 

Dermal fillers are the preferred method for treating smokers’ lines. This is an injectable procedure that boosts the volume of the skin, for a smoother surface and a younger appearance.

THE TREATMENT PROCESS

You can choose to have a numbing cream applied to the treatment area, prior to administration. A personalised treatment will be in place, based on your concerns, which will include an indication of where the injections will be placed. 

Our highly trained practitioners administer dermal fillers with precision, using the finest of needles. Fillers that are aimed at addressing the lips have a unique formula that is kinder to the skin in this area. 

AFTERCARE AND RESULTS 

As the lips are more delicate, it is likely that the treatment will cause some sensitivity. You will need to take care not to put unnecessary pressure on the lips to enable the product to sit in place effectively. Hot and cold temperatures will need to be avoided, including sun exposure and hot showers / baths, and washing the face will need to be done gently. 

Additional volume to the top lip can often be seen fairly quickly, and the final result is noticeable when any side effects have eased. The texture of the skin will be smoother, wrinkles will appear reduced and the mouth will look younger. 

Faqs

Smokers’ lines can affect both men and women, and will usually appear as a person gets older. Facial movement can make them look more pronounced, having been given their name from the wrinkles that develop when a person purses their lips (such as when inhaling on a cigarette). Dermal fillers provide additional density and hydration to the skin and tissues for a more even texture and a youthful look.

Dermal fillers are a safe and effective solution for reducing the appearance of wrinkles on the top lip. Their distinct formulation provides the right support for the intricate structure of the skin in this area. The products we use are medically approved and are the most reputable brands on the market.

The lips are a sensitive feature, so it is likely that you will feel a degree of tenderness after the treatment. A numbing cream may alleviate any discomfort that an injection can cause and many lip fillers will contain lidocaine – a mild anaesthetic.

It is possible that the top lip will become swollen and red, which could be accompanied by small bruises where the injections were administered. After 24 hours you can use make-up to conceal any marks. 

During your consultation, The Facebible will discuss all potential risks and complications.

It is anticipated that your end result can be achieved in one treatment session. If more sessions are thought to be required, this will be outlined in your personal treatment plan. You can maintain softer looking wrinkles for longer if top-up procedures are attended every 6 – 12 months.
