THREADS AND PRP TO CHASE AWAY YOUR SMOKER LINES
THREADS AND PRP TO CHASE AWAY YOUR SMOKER LINES
If you’re wondering how to get rid of your smoker lines and achieve a natural result, then you’ve come to the right place!
We all tend to get wrinkles above our lips as we age, and some of us might even realise that our upper lip has flattened over the years! We are not alone on this ride. It is why the non-surgical aesthetic world is always improving itself to give you the best options on the market to feel confident and beautiful again! Thread lifts are perfect alternatives for surgical face lifts. They are practically non-invasive and cheaper. Thread lifts for smoker lines are ideal and specifically target the upper lip area for a more rejuvenated look.
The key to a beautiful and sexy smile not only depends on our lips but our upper lip. It is a crucial indicator of ageing. It is why it is essential to maintain that area of the face. Common factors that lead to the deterioration of the upper lip through time and get smoker lines are :
- Smoking
- genetics
- excessive sun exposure
I continuously advise my patients to take care of the upper lip area before they get visible lines (called static lines). At the same time, they start to see those lines appearing when they speak (we call them dynamic lines). It is the best time for treatment with PDO threads. Those are inserted perpendicularly to the lines. They will slow down or avoid those lines to get more profound and then visible.
PDO threads are known for the use of collagen type 1 and 3 regeneration. It has been an approved method for it as well as lipolysis and neo-vascularisation! The dissolvable sutures of PDO threads are inserted under your skin. Once they dissolve, they allow collagen to grow in their place, allowing you to see long-lasting effects. The threads are inserted under the skin and give a structural template for the collagen to grow. It is helping to reduce the impact of lines and wrinkles on the face and smoker lines.
However, I usually find that the combination of treatments such as platelet-rich plasma (PRP) or Profhilo is an excellent complimentary treatment with the PDO threads to get rid of wrinkles above your lips. It allows neo-vascularisation and collagen regeneration to happen through a growth factor release. Subsequently, in turn, it gives the treatments the best possible results. Instead of overusing dermal fillers that might make that area over full, PDO threads and PRP usually provide the best harmonious balance!
