Lip wrinkles can result from various factors, including smoking, aging, sun exposure, genetics, and repetitive lip movements. These unsightly lines typically manifest as vertical wrinkles around the lips and can be challenging to conceal with makeup. Dr. Weishar’s advanced treatments have helped numerous patients in New York and Philadelphia regain their confidence by addressing the signs of perioral lines.
Lip wrinkles can develop due to various factors. Smoking, with its repetitive puckering motion, can lead to the formation of these lines. Aging is another significant factor; as we grow older, our skin naturally loses elasticity and collagen, making it more susceptible to wrinkles and fine lines. Exposure to UV radiation from the sun can speed up the breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin, further exacerbating these wrinkles. Genetics may also play a role and additionally, activities like drinking through straws or whistling can contribute to the development of perioral lines.
Smoker’s lines are characterized by thin, vertical wrinkles around the mouth. These lines become more pronounced over time, giving the lips an aged appearance. Diagnosis typically involves a visual examination and an understanding of the patient’s medical history and lifestyle.
