Lip Wrinkle Treatment FAQ
What are lip lines?
Lip lines are the vertical wrinkles above your upper lip caused by expression, smoking, sun damage, genetics, and unavoidable collagen loss. Lip lines progress with age.
What is microneedling?
Microneedling uses a pen-like device to create microscopic injuries in the skin which signal skin cells to form new collagen during the repair process. It is very effective at improving general upper lip texture and minimizing lines.
What is dermal filler?
Dermal filler is a product used to replace the facial and lip volume that is lost with age. Unlike its name, dermal filler does not just “fill”. In fact, most dermal fillers are hyaluronic acid based which is the substance plentiful our eyes and joints to keep them moist. It works by attracting 2000x its weight in water. When used appropriately, by a skilled physician injector, it can be undetectable. For more information visit this page.
