Lip rejuvenation
Overview:
Other than fillers as a treatment option for the lips, lasers can be used to treat the vertical wrinkles around the upper lip that are so called “smokers lines”. Additionally, in those with darker lips (either due to smoking or genetic factors), fillers are not the only solution. Q-switched laser is the chosen method of treatment to target lip pigmentation, for lighter and more pink lips.
