Primary Causes of Smoker's Lines
- Natural ageing process: Collagen and elastin production decline with age, leading to loss of skin firmness and elasticity. As a result, fine lines begin to form around the lips.
- Smoking and lifestyle factors: The repetitive motion of pursing the lips while smoking, combined with exposure to harmful chemicals in cigarettes, accelerates skin ageing and contributes to the development of these lines.
- Repetative movement: Drinking from straws and frequent lip movements also play a role in exacerbating these wrinkles.
- Sun Exposure and Environmental Damage: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun breaks down collagen fibres, accelerating premature skin ageing and increasing the depth of existing wrinkles.
- Genetics and Facial Structure: Genetic predisposition can influence the rate of collagen degradation and skin resilience, making some individuals more prone to perioral wrinkles than others.
- Loss of Hydration and Volume: As skin ages, hydration levels decrease, making a thinner skin barrier more susceptible to wrinkling.

Effective Treatments for Smoker's Lines
Skin Renewal offers a combination of minimally invasive and advanced treatments to effectively target and reduce smoker's lines.
- Dermal Fillers: Hyaluronic Acid-based dermal fillers restore lost volume and smooth deep-set wrinkles.
- Laser Skin Resurfacing: Stimulates collagen production and removes damaged skin layers. Fractional laser technology creates controlled micro-damage, triggering the body's natural healing response and leading to smoother, firmer skin.
- Microneedling: RF Microneedling improves skin elasticity and firmness. It stimulates fibroblast activity, increasing collagen and elastin levels to smooth and rejuvenate the skin.
- Skin Boosters: Deeply hydrate and improve skin texture. Microinjections of hyaluronic acid deliver deep hydration, improving skin resilience and reducing the prominence of fine lines.
- Chemical Peels: Superficial chemical peels exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. A controlled chemical solution removes the upper layers of skin, promoting new cell turnover and minimising the appearance of smoker's lines.
