What can I do to minimize the appearance of the line above my upper lip?

July 30, 2023
Asked By:thevelvetroses in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

Last year I began to notice a line appear above my lip which I believe could be from side sleeping. I saw a cosmetic nurse who suggested lip filler to pump up the lips so the line wouldn’t appear. It didn’t seem to help much with the appearance of the line which I believe is becoming more prominent. What should I be looking at getting done to treat this area?
