Hi
Can anyone help with how to make lip lines better. I am looking for a good cream but would also like to try something a bit more than creams. Some treatment or something. Nothing as inavasive as laser resurfacing for the downtime or dermal fillers that only last a short time but is there anything other treatment.... not sure what there is out there.... is ipl skin rejuvenation one that could help or anything along these lines. I really would appreciate some help or what others have had success with. Its really making me so depressed. Its not like is lines on my forehead that i can hide with a long fringe
many thanks
Sally |

I believe Kassy erradicated her lines above her lips with a vaculifter (in addition to looking ridiculously good for any age, she's one of my ESD heros). You may want to check some of her posts.
I do not have any lines there so far, but I do have a vaculifter and while its too soon to see any real results, it brings a ton of blood flow to the surface and my face glows as a result. Anything that gets circulation going is a good thing in my opinion. |

Have you tried Kandis Lips2Kiss products? Lots of info on EDS on her products. I have had good luck with her products. |

Definitly look into dermarolling as you want to help rebuild the collagen in that area. There are a variety of dermarollers available and the size you use will depend on how often you use it in order to get results. |

You may try coconut oil. |

I recommend regular massage, cupping massage (like the vaculifter), and facial exercise. Best wishes |

What products are you using at present or what have you tried in the past? The two products that performed best in the 'Anti-ageing Beauty Bible' are both from Clarins (extra-firming lip & contour; moisture replenishing lip): the authors suggest applying these treatments to the whole lip area at night. Or you might try hyaluronic acid, internally as well as externally. There is a thread on plumping the lips with such food supplements: if your lips were slightly fuller that should stretch the surrounding tissue? HA also helps boost collagen production. |

I noticed that lines, incl. lip lines, are softer when I have put oils on them for the night. It plumps them up. I use a mix of avocado and rosehip oil, with some buckthorn. Also massage, dry brushing with a toothbrush and the upper lip exercise by Senta Maria Rungé make the lines appear softer and less deep for a while. But for a more durable solution I am going to try dermarolling and hope that will do something good. |

A little Botox injected will soften them... |

Ipl was great for me for discoloration and capillaries, I don't remember it helping fine lines.
But a couple of years ago I had a deep vertical line above my lip and its gone now. I think what did it is oral Neocell hyaluronic acid capsules and collagen. I know they helped the fine lines at the corner of my eye. Taken together, they plump skin. The ha was also good for my eye health, I stopped having "floaters." |

Sally,
I mentioned on an earilier post about Lips2Kiss products. I did not get rid of the lines above my upper lip...HOWEVER...I have reduced them by 80%. I use the lip products plus the Face2Flaunt pruducts. This I can live with! Now if I could just stop my pouting and sleep on my back I could see more improvement I'm sure. |
