Smokers Lines Treatment Macon & Madison, GA Spa Medical

Are lines around your mouth making you look older?

As we age, even the finest of lines can seem obvious in delicate areas like our lips or mouth. And let’s face it, lines age our appearance. The lips are one of the most expressive facial features, as well as the most active muscles in our face. Repeated consonant sounds in conversation create vertical lip lines, sometimes called smoker’s lines, which over time, remain etched in the skin. These lines are the most common complaint we hear from women over the age of 45. Take charge of your lip lines with Spa Medical’s expertise in lip enhancement options.

What Treatments Enhance Lips?

Treatment of lines around the mouth, as well as lips, is a multifaceted approach. We look at the definition and proportion of the lips with all lip treatments in order to create a natural, smooth, appealing lip shape.

BOTOX®
1. BOTOX® cosmetic is sometimes the best treatment to control muscle movement, which causes smoker’s lines. Neuromodulators like Botox®, injected in small amounts every 10 weeks, can reduce the lines and prevent new ones from forming. Depending on the depth and age of the lines, dermal filler is used to create structural support and fill the deeper lines.
JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA®
1. JUVÉDERM VOLBELLA® is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler precisely engineered to give lips subtle enhancement and correct the fine lines and wrinkles that form around the mouth. Volbella’s versatility makes it ideal for more than plumping your pout. Take years off your appearance by smoothing out smoker’s lines and filling in deeper wrinkles.
Restylane®
1. Restylane® is specifically created to correct moderate-to-severe nasolabial folds and marionette lines or give lips a robust enhancement. If you’re more concerned about the size and shape of your lips, or deeper smoker’s lines, however, Restylane® Silk is specific to areas of the face with more movement. Silk moves well with your expressions for beautiful, naturally full lips.

What Results Will I See?*

The beauty of dermal fillers is that the results are immediate. This helps Terri Harper, MSN, FNP-C, owner and clinical director of Spa Medical, to artistically place the best filler of choice in the correct location for the most natural enhancement. Depending on the type of filler you’ve chosen to reduce lines and enhance your lips, your results will last 6 months or maybe longer.

Is There Any Downtime?

Most of Spa Medical’s family of fillers are infused with lidocaine, so each injection is less painful than the one before. Some patients still may experience injection site tenderness, redness, or bruising, which usually resolves within a few hours or a day or two.
