Smokers Lines Affecting Your Confidence

Are Smokers' Lines Affecting Your Confidence?

Smokers’ lines, also known as perioral lines or lip lines, are the fine vertical wrinkles that form around the mouth. They can make you look older and may cause lipstick to bleed, affecting your smile’s appearance. While anti-wrinkle injections relax the muscles that contribute to these lines, dermal fillers offer a different solution by filling in the wrinkles and restoring volume. At Monaz Clinic, we specialise in using premium dermal fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Teosyal® to smooth smokers’ lines and rejuvenate your lips’ appearance.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. They work by:

  • Restoring Volume: Filling in fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Hydrating Skin: Attracting moisture to improve skin elasticity.
  • Enhancing Lip Contour: Providing subtle plumpness for a youthful look.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections (e.g., BOTOX®):

  • Function: Relax muscles to prevent dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive movements like pursing lips.
  • Ideal For: Lines that appear when smoking, drinking through a straw, or speaking.
  • Duration: Results last 3 to 4 months.

Dermal Fillers:

  • Function: Fill in static lines by adding volume beneath the skin.
  • Ideal For: Fine lines and wrinkles that remain visible even when the face is at rest.
  • Duration: Results last 6 to 12 months.

Which Treatment Is Right for You?

  • Dynamic Wrinkles: If your smokers’ lines appear mainly when you pucker or move your lips, anti-wrinkle injections may be suitable.
  • Static Wrinkles: If you have fine lines visible even when your lips are relaxed, dermal fillers can effectively smooth these areas.
  • Combination Approach: Often, combining both treatments provides optimal results for a smoother, youthful appearance.

During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin and recommend the best treatment plan tailored to your needs.
