Lines above top lip - what can I do?

[CaptainWaffle]

Hi, I’ve started to get noticeable lines above my top lip and I’d like to do something to slow them down a bit! Can anyone recommend a cream/facial/treatment?
TIA

Do you mean horizontal ones or vertical?

Do you smoke?

Hi, vertical and I don’t smoke.

Sorry - hadn’t realised above was posted as battery died on phone.

I have vertical lines and don’t smoke.
I use retinol/vit c etc but wondered if there’s anything else I can do.

thanks

Botox / filler

Microneedling is good for this as it encourages collagen. You can have this done professionally but I do this at home.

Hi @bakewelltarty what do you use?

They are very hard to remove and seem to be genetic although of course it is made worse by smoking over the years. My friend insists on using straws for drinks due to sensitive teeth and has this very badly. She never smoked but was a sun worshipper.

I use the Trinny London one

These lines are caused by your lips shrinking as you age. I have hyarulonic acid (a moisturiser) injected into the lip line (not the lips) to smooth them out. It doesn't add volume to the lips and It lasts a year or so.
