Botox for smoker wrinkles. Is there a better place to inject than the vermillion border? (Photo)

Asked By:Celebrated6320 in Los Angeles, California

Hello, I have smoker wrinkles. I have tried Botox/Restylane Silk. The problem with the Botox is that it is injected into my vermilion border. This only prevents me from pursing and creating wrinkles that would form directly above the vermilion (lipstick bleed lines). But my lines are closer to my nostrils, like whiskers. Even after the Botox I can still purse/pout lips and create dynamic lines. Is there a better place to inject to get desired preventative effect. They are getting much worse.
