About Smokers Lines

Fine vertical lines around the lips and mouth, often called ‘smoker lines’ or ‘barcode lines,’ can develop from repetitive movements such as pouting, often linked to smoking. Muscle-relaxing injections are an effective way to prevent the lips from being pulled together, which creates
these lines. Using a fine needle, small injections are carefully placed to relax the muscles around the upper lip. This helps smooth out the lines and soften their appearance.

Smoker lines are fine vertical wrinkles that appear on the lips and often extend from the upper lip to below the nose. While commonly caused by cigarette smoking, they can also result from other repetitive movements.

Lip Wrinkles Treatment

Our doctor-led treatments for lines around the mouth aim to reduce wrinkles and prevent new ones from forming. These treatments target the overactive muscles causing the wrinkles, helping to soften and reduce their appearance.

We also offer additional options to enhance the results:

  • Skin Volumising Treatments: Restores volume around the mouth to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
  • Rejuran Skin Booster: Works to thicken the skin and underlying tissue, smoothing out wrinkles around the lips.
  • CO2 Laser Therapy: Resurfaces and tightens the skin for improved texture and fewer wrinkles.
  • PDO Mini Threads: Tightens and strengthens the skin around the mouth for a smoother, youthful look.

Causes of Smoker’s Lines

  • Repetitive lip movements, such as pouting or pursing.
  • Cigarette smoking, which accelerates collagen breakdown and skin ageing.
  • Sun exposure, leading to skin damage and reduced elasticity
  • Natural ageing, which results in loss of collagen, fat, and skin volume
  • Facial expressions, like frequent lip pursing
  • Genetics and lifestyle choices.

As we age, these factors contribute to the natural loss of skin elasticity and volume, leading to the formation
of smoker lines.
