Lines Around Mouth

Smoothing Perioral Wrinkles

Lines and wrinkles around the mouth, commonly referred to as perioral wrinkles or smoker's lines, can significantly diminish the appearance of youthfulness and contribute to an aged aesthetic. These visible signs of aging are often attributed to repetitive facial movements, sun exposure, and smoking, all of which can accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibers in the skin. Individuals may seek various cosmetic treatments such as dermal fillers to address these concerns and rejuvenate the appearance of the mouth area,

What Causes Lines Around The Mouth?

Genetics

Some individuals may be genetically predisposed to developing fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth due to factors such as skin type and family history.

Aging

Loss of collagen and elastin in the skin, combined with repetitive facial movements such as smiling, talking, and chewing, can lead to the formation of lines and wrinkles around the mouth.

Sun Exposure

Prolonged sun exposure accelerates the breakdown of collagen and elastin in the skin, contributing to the development of wrinkles and fine lines.

Smoking

Smoking reduces blood flow to the skin and accelerates collagen breakdown, leading to premature aging and the formation of perioral wrinkles.
