Can Fillers Take Care of Vertical Lips Lines?

Yes, fillers can be used for the vertical lip lines.  My filler of choice for this area is Restylane Silk.  It provides a smooth and natural look.  You should visit a Plastic Surgeon for a consult to see which filler they would recommend for treatment of this area.

For the cutaneous lip, fillers can help with modest vertical lips lines.  I like to combine with neurotoxin.  However, if the lines are more severe and the upper cutaneous lip is very thin, getting great results is much more challenging.  In this case, we may combine our filler treatments with microchanneling with PRP, ultherapy, laser.

There’s great news for those vertical lip lines jackster212. Allergan has come out with a filler made specifically for those lines which have been difficult to treat with the standard hyaluronic acid dermal fillers. Vobella is the first and only filler proven to last up to a year for lips and the vertical lip lines. I find in my practice that a combination of Restylane Silk to the body of the lip and Vobella to the upper lip lines, create a nice subtle volume and softening the appearance of the vertical lines.   

Thanks for the question and best of luck.
