Also known as vertical ‘lipstick lines’, are the result of many years of smoking, sun damage and natural ageing. They can be static (present at rest) or active (present on contraction) and can appear above and/or below the lips in the distribution of the orbicularis oris muscle- a strap-like muscle around the mouth.
This area can be treated by a combination of both Anti Wrinkle Injections (to relax the muscle) and sometimes filler (to add volume that is lost) often with great, long-lasting results.
