Mesolift for lip wrinkles

As you age the skin of your lips will become thin and drier. There will be in decrease in elasticity and fullness. This signs of lip wrinkles will usually start in your 40’s but it can occur earlier depending on your lifestyle. Your skin usually needs a wide variety of vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants. But as you age your lips need the most important substance to prevent lip lines which is moisture.

The natural substance with the highest moisture-binding capacity is hyaluronic acid. In the mesolift procedure this substance is applied to the lips in high concentrations where it is needed.

This is done more in the area where your lip lines are present. Mesolift treatment can provide you with a fresher and younger look.

With the presence of more moisture in the skin the production collagen and elastin receives a boost. This helps the lip to get rid of fine lines and wrinkles.

Treat lip wrinkle with nerve toxin injections

In this treatment nerve toxins are injected into lip lines. These injections aim to reduce the activity of the muscles around the mouth. We all know one of the causes of lip wrinkles is the pronounced movement of the facial muscles. The wrinkle injections with botulinum toxin also inhibit the formation of new lip wrinkles due to fewer facial movements.

Now for the next 3 to 6 months the natural facial expressions will be at least restricted, if not completely disturbed. And that, in turn, can appear mask-like and unnatural. During this time your lip wrinkles will be least visible. So you will have to undergo treatment every 3 to 6 months.

Medical peelings as wrinkles treatment

Our skin is always changing. New cells are reproduced in the middle layers of the skin. The older cells begin and increasing keratinization process towards the skin’s surface are finally getting shed. In medical peeling old deadly parts of the lips are peeled off. This brings the fresh cells to the top and stimulate the formation of replenishment cells. The skin after peeling will appear younger.

This process is good for the area surrounding the lips and on the edges of the upper and lower lip. These type of wrinkles are more common in smokers and are called “smoker’s lines”. These smoker lines can be can be dealt with tailor made peeling, with additional procedures if they are necessary.

The result of medical peeling is a smoother and more even complexion in the upper and lower lip area. The peeling process takes around 15 and 30 minutes. This is because of the extent of smokers lines.  The medical peeling must be repeated at certain intervals.

Laser treatment for lip wrinkles

As mentioned above the older layer of the skin of the lips makes the lip look older and has to be removed. In laser lip wrinkle treatment this upper layer of the skin has to be removed. The laser has its own benefits as the skin in the lips is tightened as laser stimulates formation of collagen. With this type of treatment existing lip wrinkles which are not too dip are reduced. Fine wrinkles or lines on and around the lips can even be completely removed with the laser.

The disadvantage of this treatment is that the laser doesn’t reach the deeper layers of the skin. So very dip wrinkles on the lips can only be reduced. A side effect of this treatment is that there will be slight to moderate redness in the areas that are treated or there will be slight swelling.  However this will go after a few days from the treatment.

The effects of this treatment will start to show after a couple of months as the upper layer of the skin has to be removed. The effects of this treatment will last for several months or even a year. This treatment will make your lips look younger and fuller.

In conclusion

Having lip wrinkles is a sign of aging and you must get rid of them to look younger. You can prevent lip wrinkles with a nice skin care routine but if you already have them then going for treatment is the only solution. You can try the above treatment options and see which one works the best for you.
