Help removing smile/laugh lines around mouth which appear only when I'm smiling (Photo)

missmissusAug 21, 2015
Im looking for the best dermatologist or treatment for smile lines that appear only when im smiling. Im in my mid thirties and deeply disturbed by them. See photos!! A perfect and exact example of a celebrity that has the same lines as me when she smiles is jennifer hudson. I was never overweight and do not smoke. I weight about 50 kilos and wrinkles are not prominent in my family. I am the only one suffering from terrible lines when i smile ( around mouth and under eye area). Help!!:-((
