Perioral Lines

Why Consider Tackling Perioral Lines?

Perioral lines, also known as smoker’s lines or vertical lip lines, are the fine lines that appear around the mouth, often becoming more pronounced with age. These lines can affect both smokers and non-smokers, giving a creased or wrinkled appearance to the upper lip area. Tackling these lines can help restore a more youthful, smoother look to the mouth, making it appear softer and more rejuvenated.

Symptoms

  • Vertical lines around the upper lip and mouth
  • Fine lines extending from the lip border upwards
  • Lines becoming more pronounced when lips are pursed or during facial expressions
  • Loss of definition in the lip border
  • Lipstick bleeding into the lines, creating a smudged effect
  • Decreased volume in the lips

Causes

  • Natural ageing and collagen loss, leading to thinner skin and fine lines
  • Repeated facial movements, such as talking, pursing the lips, or smoking
  • Loss of skin elasticity and hydration around the mouth
  • Sun exposure causing premature ageing
  • Genetics and skin type
  • Smoking, which accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin
  • Hormonal changes that affect skin firmness and elasticity
  • Use of straws or habits that create repetitive movements around the mouth
