Your lips aren’t necessarily “shrinking.” There’s actually more going on. 💋
As we age, changes in collagen, elastin and the tissues around the mouth can show up in a few different ways.
Your lip border may look less defined. Vertical lines can become more noticeable. You may lose some of the fullness you used to have. Your upper lip may look flatter or less visible when you smile.
And it’s not only the lips themselves. Changes in the skin and structure around the mouth can make your lips appear smaller or less defined, too.
This happens whether you’ve had filler before or not. Which is also why lip filler doesn’t have to mean dramatically bigger lips.
Sometimes the goal is simply restoring a little volume, bringing back definition, improving hydration or softening some of the changes that have happened over time.
The goal is still to look like you. Just with lips that feel a little more like yours again. 🖤
Save this if you’ve noticed your lips changing, or reach out if you’ve been considering lip injections and have questions.
