One of the most common skin care dilemmas women over the age of 30 face are lip lines. When it comes to the best treatment for wrinkles above lips, there are a variety of options. First, let’s take a look at what causes these lip lines.

Cigarettes, Sun, and Straws

When it comes to lip lines, the most common culprits are cigarettes, sun, and straws. The skin near the mouth gets a lot of sun exposure, resulting in fine lines. Smoking and using straws can also cause thinning of the skin and reduced elasticity. However, it is important to note that fine lines are also a natural part of the aging process. But, you don’t need to live with them! 

How to Get Rid of Lip Lines Permanently

If you’re looking for the best treatment for wrinkles above the lips, your best bet is fractional laser resurfacing. Treatment with a fractional ablative laser like the DOT can help with those deep lines. 

This procedure is unlike any other laser resurfacing treatment, as it allows for precisely targeted treatment areas to produce significant improvements to the appearance and texture of the skin. The CO2 fractional laser treats the skin through a customized pattern of dots, which reduces damage to surrounding tissues. This also allows for deeper penetration of the skin, and removal of those stubborn lines. It gives your skin a fuller, more youthful appearance.

DOT Therapy is effective in:

  • Reversing the effects of aging
  • Improving texture, tone and firmness of the skin
  • Smoothing wrinkles and fine lines
  • Reducing the appearance of acne and other scars
  • Providing an overall younger, more refreshed appearance.
