Anti Ageing For Lips : Laser, Injectables & Balms

Fine lines around the lips and mouth are one of the many areas that give the game away as we age (brilliant, ANOTHER area to add to the list). You might be here wondering if there is anything you can do about it? I have 3 suggestions for you, each vary in price and in results.

Laser

There are lasers available for just about every skin problem these days. I had a course of 3 laser sessions earlier this year at Dr Joney De Souza’s London clinic, with a view to reducing enlarged pores and first signs of ageing. The results were good and the downtime was minimal.

Lasers also exist to target and improve fine lines around the mouth; the number of sessions you will require is dependent on the severity of your concerns. Laser is great if you are happy with your lip volume, but wish to improve lines and elasticity. A course of treatment (normally 3 sessions are required) ranges from £900.00. Results last for around one year. I highly recommend this course of treatment in general, it GREATLY improves firmness, loss of elasticity and crepey skin - as well as enlarged pores and acne scaring.

Injectables

Injectable fillers such as Restylane can be used to increase or restore lip volume. The placement of the product depends on your area of concern, but typically the application of filler around the vermillion boarder will resolve issues with shape and any lipstick bleeding into lines.

Mesotherapy is an additional treatment that works by injecting tiny beads of Restylane into the skin, we're talking droplets about the size of the end of a pen nib. Though this is a filler in the traditional sense, the droplets are so tiny that you don't see a 'filled' result. Instead, the hyaluronic acid attracts water to the area, which over a short period of time, plumps-out the region through water attracted to the HA molecules.

Botox around the mouth can also soften fine lines. Prices are based on your location, area of concern and doctor. Typically, Botox starts at £250.00

New research suggests that the use of hyaluronic acid can trigger your body to produce more, where it might previously have slowed-down. So having such products applied might in fact create a more long-term benefit.

Dr Joney DeSouza also offers a range of injectable solutions, including mesotherapy. The bottom line is that there are some really quite quick and effective things that can be done to improve this issue. Book a consultation with your chosen practitioner to discuss your options.

Emile Cordon Cashmere-On Lip Pots

Hydration & Lifestyle

This is the cheapest and most non-invasive option for you that can work to improve the look of fine lines around the mouth. Firstly, smoking and exposure to UV rays causes and accelerates lines around the mouth, as well as a lack of volume and overall plumpness in the area.

Dehydration and chapped lips don’t help in the longer term either, but they also don’t look too nice! Adding hydration will automatically create the illusion of fuller lips.

I’ve been using this product from Emile Cordon, they are luxury Lip Pots, said to feel like cashmere on the lip. Containing anti-ageing ingredients, I find the lip pots to be both effective and a delight to use and apply. They have a very delicate fragrance to them and can also be used on cuticles.

I was sent two of their Cashmere-On Lip Pots to try in May. I’ve been using them since and have genuinely gotten to a point where they have out-performed my other lip products in terms of lasting hydration, scent and (aesthetically) the pots look divine! The two I have are in “No.1 Lisa – Rose Champagne” and “No.43 Pamela – Mediterranean Fig”.
