I have terrible smokers lines and regret that I used to smoke so much. I have had fillers around my mouth but they haven't helped. I don't want filler in my lips as I don't want a pout and I don't want to risk laser as I scar easy and it scares me. What's the other option to improve them.

Answer: Smoker's Lines Thank you for your question and posting your pictures. Smoker's lines are very difficult to treat. Options include fillers, micro-needling (series) with or without PRP, micro-needling with an RF device such as Fractora, and neuromodulators such as Dysport or Botox. More recently J-Plasma has become available. This one time treatment uses a combination of cold helium gas and RF energy to create a plasma that resurfaces the skin and dramatically tightens the skin. It is the most effective treatment I have seen for smoker's lines. Further, with healthy lifestyle choices the results will last for years. It does come with some significant downtime and is more expensive but the results appear as good, if not better, than a face lift. In addition to treating wrinkles and imprinted lines, the J-Plasma procedure will remove pigment irregularities, bags under the eyes, and drooping eyelids, while lifting and reshaping your face to a more youthful appearance.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.
