THIN LIPS
FIND THE SOLUTION TO THIN LIPS
Your lips are one of the most prominent features of your face. Whether you are male or female, your lips may always have been thin, asymmetrical, or have thinned with time, losing their full, plump, youthful appearance.
Patients primarily want to give their lips a healthy plump for two reasons:
- Enhanced Lip Volume: Lip fillers can increase the volume and fullness of the lips, creating a plumper appearance. This can be desirable for individuals who have naturally thin lips or who want to achieve a more pronounced lip shape.
- Improved Lip Symmetry: Lip fillers can also help improve symmetry between the upper and lower lips or correct asymmetry caused by genetics or aging. By strategically injecting fillers, a skilled practitioner can achieve a more balanced and harmonious lip contour.
ABOUT THIN LIPS
Thin lips occur for the same reason that your skin begins to sag over time: lost collagen and hyaluronic acid (HA). Collagen and HA give our lips plumpness, moisture, and an overall look of youthfulness. Lip shape and size is also determined by genetics. If your lips are naturally small, there’s a good chance that your lips will begin to thin out in your late 20s. Other factors include:
- Genetics: Some individuals may naturally have thinner lips due to genetic factors inherited from their parents.
- Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can accelerate collagen breakdown in the lips, contributing to thinning and premature aging.
- Smoking: Smoking can cause oxidative stress and damage to the delicate skin of the lips, leading to thinning and wrinkling.
- Dehydration: Inadequate hydration can result in dry, parched lips, making them appear thinner and less plump.
- Repeated Facial Expressions: Certain facial expressions, such as pursing the lips or frowning, can contribute to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles around the mouth, accentuating lip thinning.

ENHANCING THIN LIPS
While we can’t stop time, we can at least push back against some of its undesirable effects on our appearance. If you’re struggling with thinning lips, know that there are plenty of options for restoring their shape and volume. These options include:
- Dermal Fillers: Hyaluronic acid-based fillers are injected into the lips to add volume, improve lip contours, and restore youthful fullness.
- Lip Flip: Botulinum toxin injections are used to relax the muscles around the mouth, causing the upper lip to gently roll outward and appear fuller.
- Lip Rejuvenation Treatments: Treatments aimed at enhancing the skin’s quality can also work to enhance overall lip appearance. The Lip Fix Kit by Restorsea for HydraFacial is a favorite pick to rejuvenate and refresh your lips.
