Dermal Fillers for Around the Mouth
The areas around your mouth will change with age, so you may wish to consider non-invasive cosmetic procedures on offer at Juvea Aesthetics.
Among them are dermal fillers, which are an injectable treatment to provide volume and reduce the appearance of wrinkles present when your face is at rest. Juvea Aesthetics use naturally derived hyaluronic acid fillers as part of a range of treatments that will be discussed with you by our qualified practitioners during your consultation.
Just read on to find out more about our approach.
Areas that can be treated
Dermal fillers can be injected in different areas around your mouth to treat wrinkles. The main ones are lipstick lines, marionette lines and parentheses lines.
Lipstick lines originate vertically at the edge of both lips, and are more visible above the upper lip. They are called lipstick lines because lipstick bleeds into them when applied, creating an unsightly appearance and annoyance. These lines may also be called smokers’ lines.
Marionette lines are those appear at both corners of the mouth and run towards the chin. Their shape tends to give you an unwanted sad or angry look.
Parentheses lines, also called nasolabial folds,run from the sides of the nose to the corner of the mouth in an arc shape.
All these lines can be treated with dermal filler injections such as Juvederm, Restylane or Radiesse. Our practitioners will carefully assess your face and suggest the most appropriate filler for you.
FAQ
How do dermal fillers work in order to erase the lines appearing around the mouth?
Injectables based on hyaluronic acid work by replacing the collagen lost by your skin during the ageing process. Dermal fillers provide volume, making your face appear smoother and more youthful.
How long does it take to have a dermal filler injection near the mouth?
Following an initial consultation, the procedure doesn’t usually take more than thirty minutes and can be very conveniently fit into a busy schedule. Downtime is also kept to a minimum: while some minor swelling will usually occur, this will resolve with time and you should be able to get back to your normal activities straight away.
When will the area around the mouth start looking younger?
Effects for this area – as for all areas we target with dermal fillers – are pretty much immediate, so you will be looking more youthful from the moment you step out of our clinic.
