Ageing Lips

As we age, particularly in our late 40s, we experience a loss of dental and structural support in the lower face, leading to volume loss in the soft tissues, including the lips. At Skin Renewal, we are experienced in aesthetic lip rejuvenation using hyaluronic acid fillers. Our treatments focus on filling fine wrinkles and lines around the lips, restoring the Cupid's bow, and lifting the corners of the mouth. Additionally, we treat the vermilion border to prevent excessive pursing associated with normal mouth functions like drinking and talking.

Revitalise Your Lips with Advanced Aesthetic Treatments at Skin Renewal

With age, our lips lose fullness and projection, resulting in a condition known as soft tissue atrophy. This thinning process commonly affects the lips and the corners of the mouth, leading to more pronounced wrinkles and a "mouth frown," a noticeable sign of ageing. Vertical lip wrinkles, also known as smoker's lines (or barcode lines), can develop early due to repeated facial expressions such as pursing lips, chewing, vaping/smoking, sipping from straws, and even talking. These lines are often more evident in individuals with overactive mouth muscles.

The Popularity of Lip Enhancement

Lip enhancement has become increasingly popular since the 1990s, with individuals of all ages seeking fuller, more sensuous lips. Fuller lips are often associated with female sexuality and physical desirability. Filler procedures are minimally invasive and require little recovery time. Starting early with soft tissue rejuvenation using fillers is advantageous as treating early-developing lip wrinkles with dermal fillers is easier.

For a natural-looking lip enhancement, it is crucial to plump the lip's body, ensuring a fuller yet natural shape. Overfilling should be avoided, and proper techniques are essential for achieving a balanced look. The doctor's experience plays a significant role in the success of natural lip rejuvenation.

Advanced Treatments for Lip Wrinkles

Treating advanced lip wrinkles is challenging, with most cases resulting in improvement rather than a complete cure. Neglected lip lines can become permanently ingrained and resistant to treatments. Skin Renewal offers advanced treatments for severe lip wrinkles using dermal fillers such as Revanesse®, Juvederm, and Restylane.

Comprehensive Treatment Options Using MD Codes

Using the MD Codes system and Liquid Facelift, we strategically place dermal fillers to restore volume and structure to the face. This approach, combined with the following in-clinic treatments, provides optimal results:

For severe smokers' lines, we use a small amount of dermal filler on the top lip to reduce muscle movement and enhance lip rejuvenation.

Laser Genesisâ„¢ for Advanced Lip Wrinkles

Laser Genesisâ„¢ resurfacing, performed after lip augmentation with injectable filler, is our treatment for advanced lip wrinkling issues. This procedure, conducted two weeks after lip rejuvenation and repeated every 2 to 3 weeks for six treatments, offers optimal results. A few shots of Laser Genesisâ„¢, done 24-48 hours post-filler, can be performed to resolve post-filler bruising (if necessary).

Dr. Ross is amazing. Great personality (making the needle sticking almost enjoyable, haha) and, more importantly, excellent work: facial cheek bio-remodeling, botox, lip fillers. Highly, highly recommended!

I am very pleased with my experience at Skin Renewal Parkhurst. Having endured hyper pigmentation over the past few years due to stress, hormonal changes, and after trying so many products I am finally seeing amazing results after only 3 sessions. Thank you Dr Nadira, therapist Beverley for the relaxed, and well explained sessions and the team at Parkhurst for your friendly reception.

I came to Skin Renewal for a lip filler and was concerned about my frown lines. Dr Lestonn is a genius. The information given on each procedure as well as the alternative procedures were detailed and simplified in a way that allowed ME to make an informed decision. The procedure was painless, but Dr Lestonn is a total perfectionist balancing my lips and treating my frown lines with extra TLC. My experience here has given me more confidence to put my best face forward. The professionalism, care and customer satisfaction is unmatched. I'm definitely coming back for more. There is no judgement, or pressure, just care and a genuine interest in patients. I am delighted with the results. Thank you Skin Renewal for making me smile, with fuller lips of course!

Absolutely love Skin Renewal, i went to the Century City branch this weekend to see dr Michele. He did my lips for the second time now and results are perfect. The second time around I had almost no downtime. In two days time all swelling had gone down and I wasn’t bruised at all. He also added a very natural looking filler in the jawline and chin, it’s extremely subtle and natural but makes a massive difference to the overall appearance of my face. I would highly recommend Skin Renewal, I always feel like dr Michele views his job as an creative outlet as he always advises on what will enhance your natural beauty rather than making you look like a doll. 11/10 from me
