Smokers' surface lines can be easily and instantly smoothed with a hyaluronic acid-based filler such as Juvéderm Volbella or Restylane Silk. These injectables are the thinnest of their respective families, making them ideal for fine lines and areas with fine skin. Instead, in most cases, to soften the lines around the mouth, dermal fillers are the most popular option. They work by hydrating the area, replenishing lost volume and smoothing lines for a more youthful appearance.
When it comes to treating smokers' lines, an experienced professional can take two approaches. The first is to inject small amounts of filler very precisely along the lines and along the edge of the lips, without filling the lips. The second way is to fill the lips with dermal filler, which gently stretches the skin and thus reduces lip lines. In some cases, we can combine both approaches. Like Botox, the doctor will inject dermal filler at points along the wrinkled area with a fine needle.
This procedure is relatively quick and painless, and results are usually seen immediately. Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are a great choice for smokers' lines because they are safe and effective. They also provide long-lasting results that can last up to a year or more. Additionally, they are reversible if you don't like the results. If you're considering using dermal fillers to smooth smokers' lines, it's important to consult with an experienced professional who can assess your individual needs and recommend the best treatment plan for you. With proper care and maintenance, you can enjoy smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.
