Vertical Lip Lines

Vertical Lip lines (Smokers Lines).

As we age, the loss of collagen around the lips and mouth can give rise to smokers’ lines, even for those who have never smoked. These lines above the upper lip are also called vertical lip lines or barcode lines. At our Sanctuary Cove clinic, we offer a variety of effective treatments for vertical lip lines, including muscle relaxants, dermal fillers, and collagen induction therapies such as skin needling or even ablative laser resurfacing.

The client below had a combination muscle relaxant and filler treatment.

The muscle relaxant treatment is called a lip flip which reduces the active upper lip lines when you purse your lips. The main issue however for the lady below was the volume loss in the upper lip. This is where dermal filler provides support and structure to the upper lip tissue.

At our Sanctuary Cove clinic, dermal fillers with specific characteristics, such as particle size, thickness, stickiness, concentration, and longevity, are used to address vertical lip lines. These lines require a soft and flexible product due to the constant movement of the upper lip. The results showcased here were achieved over two treatment sessions at Curvz. During your free consultation, you’ll receive an accurate breakdown of treatment costs. Additionally, you’ll be able to resume your daily activities immediately following the procedure.

Is it painful?

Most people find filler injections quite comfortable. The addition of lidocaine, a mild anaesthetic, to certain products makes the injection even more comfortable for you.
