Thanks,

Yes, some research suggests that waxing the upper lip can cause wrinkles by constantly pulling on the skin. Please click here Upper Lip Wrinkles to read more....

Upper Lip Wrinkles

Is there any help for lip wrinkles? I don't even smoke and started getting these vertical lines above my lips. Any suggestion? I've tried all kinds of creams, but nothing has worked. I cannot afford botox...help.

Hi There,

Thanks for your question. There are two things you can try to reduce upper lip wrinkles. First,
faceal exercises. Face exercises can not just improve skin tone and elasticity, it can help lift sagging muscles too. Click on the link above to watch a video.

The other thing you can do for quicker results is try a wrinkle filler. Apply this on your targeted areas before you put on your makeup.

It sort of lifts the skin but reduces wrinkling too. The product instructions say it takes 5 minutes....but I noticed it takes about 15 minutes to see results for me.

Just make sure to keep your lips smooth and don't pucker them while this product is drying. This ensures a smoother look. Also, this product hydrates the skin and helps prevent future wrinkles.

Hope this has helped...let me know how it goes.

Too many above lip wrinkles – please help

I have way too many above lip wrinkles for my age. I'm only 38 years old – please help. Are Botox or restylane creams or injections my only choice?

Hello,

It's surprising how early lip wrinkles - above the lips and below the lips - can form. I know women who have started getting lip lines as young as 25 years old!

Here are two things you can do to reduce and eventually eliminate lip lines.

First - Face Exercises! People have no idea how effective face exercises are for lifting your skin, rubbing out wrinkles, and firming the underlying muscle..giving you higher cheek bones and more face definition.

Here is a sample exercise for lip wrinkles:
Place your thumbs under your upper lip and your index fingers on the outside top of your upper lip. Now try to curl your lip up (like you're sneering) and use your fingers and thumbs to pull your lip down ... hold this tension for a count of 5. Repeat this step 10 times

Second: The other thing you can do for instant results is try the Instant Lifting Serums.

It contains a new ingredient called Seasflash that hydrates and plumps up the skin. If you don't believe this product works, apply it one side of your face only - then check back in 30 minutes. You'll see an instant lift where the serum was placed.

I hope this helps,
