Wrinkle Reduction in Central London

Your lips essentially frame your smile and many clients find that whilst they are happy with their dental health and the way their teeth look, they are suddenly more conscious of the skin around the mouth. Fortunately there are several non evasive, quick fix treatments available to help improve the skin quality or reduce wrinkles to give the appearance of smoother skin.

Lip lines, commonly referred to as ‘smoker lines,’ are small vertical lines that appear on the skin above and below the lips. These lines often start to develop in our 30s and become more noticeable in our 40s. They are caused by factors such as:

• The natural loss of collagen, elastin, and skin hydration with age (worsened by smoking and sun exposure)
• Repeated facial expressions, leading to creasing of the skin
• The effects of gravity, causing the skin to sag
• Sleeping positions that press the face against the pillow, scrunching the skin

Injecting Botulinum toxin or ‘Botox’ helps resolve the issue by relaxing the muscles that are causing the wrinkles.
