As I've got older the skin on my chin has become more textured. And the skin above my lip has got grooves or little channels - like I'm a smoker (I'm not). There seems to be different treatment options. I'd like advice on what might be good and how long I can expect the results to last. Thanks

Answer: Upper lip lines Hi there, Upper lip lines, often called "smoker's lines" or "lip wrinkles," can develop due to various factors, including aging, sun exposure, repetitive facial movements, and genetics. So non-smokers, like in your case, can get them as well. While it's challenging to eliminate these lines entirely, several treatment options can help reduce their appearance. First of all, I would recommend using high-quality anti-ageing skin care. This can help soften the lines and make your skin look plumper above the lips. My preferred treatment option for upper lip lines is a mix of Botox and dermal filler. To do this, I gently insert a cannula close to your upper lip and loosen the skin on top of the lip. This creates a small space. I then inject a carefully crafted mix of dermal filler and Botox into this space. Results take two weeks to be fully seen. Other treatment options, such as laser resurfacing and micro-needling, are also available. But I see most dramatic results with dermal filler and Botox. Please also read my blog about treatment options for upper lip lines.
