Smoker Lines

Description

Smoker lines—also known as lip lines, lipstick lines, barcode wrinkles, perioral wrinkles, vertical lip lines, or perioral rhytides—are deep vertical wrinkles that form around the mouth due to repetitive lip puckering from activities like smoking, using straws, or even frequent facial expressions. These lines typically appear above the upper lip and stretch from one side of the mouth to the other, sometimes extending toward the nose or chin. Smoker lines are not exclusive to smokers: aging, sun exposure, genetics, and natural facial movements all contribute to their development, especially since the skin around the lips is thinner and more delicate than other areas of the face. If you’re seeking effective solutions to restore a smooth, youthful look and regain your confidence, modern treatments like hyaluronic acid lip fillers can safely and quickly reduce the appearance of smoker lines with minimal downtime, offering natural-looking rejuvenation for a fresher, more attractive smile.
