I’m 66 have lip lines and am just proud to be privileged to live long enough to be wrinkly and crinkly. Enjoy your life. Don’t worry about aging - not everyone gets to do it.
I HAD smoke lines big time.. after 6 months of using castor oil they are pretty much gone.. I'm asked a lot about my age and they always say, u sure dont look it.. i use it all over my face.. big difference
I'm annoyed because my asthma inhaler has given me lip lines. I have to pucker up to use it 4 times a day, and ironically I've never smoked. Having just read a comment about castor oil, l will buy some asap....😊
In the Natural Health field, we've learned that " multiple nutrient deficiencies" most importantly 99 that are critical to consume every day, causes premature aging. Poor diet and lack of exercise, even facial exercises, are contributing factors, as are negative thoughts, actions and feelings. Our cells respond to our beliefs so command them to stay healthy then back up the beliefs with Peace, Prayer and Supplementation with vital Nutrients. Thanks for allowing my comment Dr. K. Blessings!
I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. A good diet is essential to health. I have lip lines and I know it is from Sun damage. No one knew about sun damage or sun screen. My diet did not prevent what my genetic dictated. You have take my word I have been eating healthy. Nutrients beyond what you need are un necessary, but eating habits do vary with mindfulness and priority(S) in life. No one has a perfect life! Thankfully there are good options out there for restoring a more youthful appearance!
Please don't tell me people should lay down or not pick up their favorite musical instruments because of fear of getting lip lines! Perhaps doing what we love and giving music/happiness to others is the antidote for lack of self esteem/ aging😊.
I saw a video of ablative laser on lip lines and there was NO DIFFERENCE between before and after. It was the FRACTIONAL laser that made the difference!!
Thank you so much for the education you provided on lip lines. I’m 71 year year-old woman who is looking to have something done at this point. I’m not sure what, I live in Canada and I feel that most of the specialists and plastic surgeons, etc. do not have the experienceas those in the USA. Your suggest suggestion of a virtual appointment is very appealing to me and I will go to your website and maybe we can go from there. Thank you.❤
could you possibly do a video on this dilute filler for upper and lower for this non smoker , non drinker. I just had botox for upper lip and do not care for the numb feeling and the resultant esthetic.. flattened out lip and corners droop , also still hyper purse my lips. I would love to see your filler work for lips please and if I can't get to new york , I'll know what to ask for. Thanks in advance
@@Katie-vy5rdyou need a thin filler like Restylane Kisse or Belotero, they’re not prone to swelling up. I’ve had it done to my top lip, it lasts a couple of years.
Thank you, Dr. Kopelman. This straight forward delve into the causes of lip lines and various types of treatments is well done and appreciated. I am 75 1/2 years old so, because sunscreen wasn't sold in stores (don't even know if it existed at all) my entire life until I was in my 30's, my skin has had daily sun exposure. Being an outside type of child/teen/young adult, my skin has had an onslaught of sun rays and, yes, I did go to the beach, spend the entire day and soak in the sun.🙄
I did erbium yag, best results by far! First month is harsh & it can take several months for pinkness & tenderness to go away but totally worth it. Also recommend treatment is performed by a dermatologist, not just a tech. While tech's may be able to do a decent job, a derm is far more skilled especially during recovery & maintenance phases and hopefully less likely to sell you questionable products & follow-up treatments.
Everything depends upon the intelligence, experience , and ethics of the person performing the laser. Plastic surgeons and dermatologists are usually well trained to perform these procedures (but not always).
Oh Lisa, please forgive me! I was skimming over the comments and thought you typed/said “best results by fart!” 😂 I think skimming and that explanation mark was messing with my eyes!
Great information! Thank you so much. I, too, have never smoked, but I attribute my lip lines due to heavy coffee drinking and early menopause. They are an embarrassment to me as I'm sure most people assume I was a heavy smoker. Non the less, I just keep smiling!
Educational for all! Knowledge is power¡ Great Tutorial! Well explained, truthful to every choice of treatments. Thank you for sharing your medical talent! Greetings from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for taking the time to post this important video. I have found that waxing my upper lip has helped with the fine lines. One of the concerns I have with injectables is the after effects.
Dr. I thank you 🤩 for your time, for touching on such a current topic and for the honesty and clarity of your explanation. I would like you to see my current photo: in case I require anything else to continue👍! I am passionate about these topics because I am a woman, who has never smoked or drunk and at 73 years old, I continue to do my daily exercises and 🏋 GYM, also electronic ones for facial muscle mass; As a result: no wrinkles or age spots, I don't have to take any medication and my physical condition is excellent!
@@meerkat783 That info has been revised. It was based on a flawed study done in the early 2000s, and an increased risk of breast cancer is low. Talk with any reputable OB/GYN about HRT if you don't have certain risk factors, such as blood clots. There are far more benefits, such as osteoporosis prevention, than risks. That flawed study hurt women for decades.
@bathemeinchampagne I have been on the combo b.c. pill for over 30 years for various reasons. My mother started on HRT (estrogen-only patch) in the early 2000s post-hysterectomy. We have no family history of breast cancer, and her husband is a retired OB/GYN. There was always a risk vs. benefit ratio, but more so due to clot risk. I am a non-smoker, have a low BMI, low BP, good cholesterol levels, etc. I don't believe that the good doctors changed their prescribing habits on one study alone based on personal experience, but I definitely did run into bad doctors when I turned 40 who refused to even write me a script for my combo b.c. pill to suppress my painful, heavy, week-long periods. They were all female doctors without an ounce of empathy, incidentally. I luckily found a nurse for nearly a decade who saw the whole patient, and I am now with a better educated doctor since she retired. It's my body, and in a broken, for-profit healthcare system here in the US, I am the paying customer. The onus is on the medical professionals here to do their job based on benefit vs. risk. There isn't a one-size-fits-all answer.
Super,in depth information. Thank you for providing the different modalities of what can be used including the pros and cons. I'm glad I found your site , I ve subscribed and look forward to future content.
I totally got rid of mine by asking my aesthetic NP to break the adhesions in the « smoker s « lines with a needle. 2 years down…no lines back!!! Docs do the same with acne scars. It s all conjonctive tissue adhesions 🤷♀️add some PRF in there and done👍
Thank you Doctor. Your approach and reasons why for skin care products and application are so valuable for making good choices. Thank you. I am very appreciative of your expertise and sharing of your knowledge with us.
I broke out in a some type of dermatitis on one side of my upper lip. After a couple weeks or so, when it resolved, I had lip lines on that side. Yippee!
I had deep upper lip wrinkles and filler in my upper lip at the lip line really helped reduce them by about 80%. I had two rounds of fractional co2 laser, but neither one of them helped much.
Great explanation doc. I agree with you 100%. At age 33 I had a full facial CO2 laser. It wiped off 20 years of spots and wrinkles. At age 57, people always comment on how young I look and how clear and smooth me face is. You are right, I received the max benefit w CO2 laser but the down time was long. I wasn’t embarrassed, I went to work even tho I looked like a burn victim. Lol
Well I am glad you are enjoying the benefits! And of course that I am providing everyone watching with the correct and up to date thinking of how best to treat lip lines.
As I had horrendous complications due to laser treatment, I sought advice from a laser expert based in Belgium, his clinic uses the Tele viv advanced chemical peel method instead of lasers, as his clinic has found that the complications I suffered from are common and the peel has less complications and a better outcome. Please research cosmetic procedures and ask the doctor/procedure provider about complications and what is the protocol to help reduce them if they should occur. If you suffer complications, you need advice and support, ask if you will receive this, NEVER rush into having treatment. ❤
I have used a straight edge to shave my face for years. I use Ret A and sunscreen and have for 35 years. I use Botox to keep the lip lines at arm’s length. Never used straws. I am 69 and it works. Imperceptible lip lines.
I don’t smoke don’t drink alcohol cleanse tone and moisturise morning and night I take vitamin D3 have thyroid disease and Parry Romberg Syndrome and Sjögren’s syndrome. I am in my 70s and have heavy lip lines I hate them.
For myself, I have small teeth. I gave up cigarettes 12 years ago before I even noticed any! So I’m blaming my small teeth - straight, never had braces, but small! Now for the appearance aspect. At 60, I don’t need to do a full face of makeup anymore. But to improve my appearance, I go with Mascara and Dior Addict Lip Tint (hands down the best) but until it dries completely, it can and does run into those fine lines! It’s frustrating! Back to Dr. Kopelman! ❤
I have never smoked or drank alcohol. Plus when we go out to eat I don’t use a straw. I have lip lines for 2 or 3 years and don’t know how to help them to go away.
not a smoker, not a drinker, have relatively small mouth, teeth are not small but smalish in size...I had these...however, I have been undergoing Invisalign treatment and I noticed that these have been significantly reduced. I have also started used tretinoin. I also do micro needling at home. so far so good. I prefer to stay off ablative lasers.
Lines are a natural aging by product as we lose collagen and fat deposits above our top lip so the structure of the skin and tissues decrease as we age. Non smokers and non drinkers get the lines the same as smokers. Plastic surgeons wouldn't have jobs if we weren't so obsessed with the changes to our faces as we get older. Just grow old the way its intended, ignore lines and wrinkles, they are the map of our life.
Thank you for being honest about treatments available. I have those ugly lip lines and I’m not a smoker. I drank from straws here and there, not on a constant basis. I think mine is sun damage and now I have to use straws for my morning tea due to having my teeth whitened by KOR for tetracycline. I now try to drink without piercing my lips. 😂I tried micro needling with RF and it did not help. I had my whole face done four times. Again, thank you for your tips and honesty.
Don't be too hard on yourself. I wouldn't worry about the straws. More likely it is due to sun damage. You might want to explore laser treatments and fillers around the lips to soften the lines if they continue to bother you.

Same! 3rd generation of lines around upper lip.
Me too. I have started using a Gu Sha device from my lip area as well as an ice roller. I have noticed an improvement ever so slight.
Me too.
AND I HATE IT!!!
Yep, I have never smoked and drink lightly. It’s genetic for me
Me too and also never smoked!
Never smoked but have the lines. I had another bad habit though, drinking soft drinks with a straw.
Whistling did it for me.
Sports water bottles too.
Yes, no straws and drink from a regular glass.
Yes me too - straws. Sadly I didn’t realize what was happening until it was too late. I have stopped & it has improved some but they are etched in.

I agree because I have never drank or smoked. I do not use a straw. My lip lines are bad.
Fair skinned people are more prone to lip lines,also sun damage, yes.
Fascinating. I would also include people who whistle, sing, play musical instruments that involve breath control through the lips. ❤

And using straws!!

Constant pain and constant tensing of the mouth muscles causes vertices lip lines as well.
From washing oil off after you eat, you might wash oils off, careful use a non degreaser soap.😊
