Does anyone use a product that really softens the lines aroun the mouth?

@dollgal   I must say that this is what I dislike most about my aging skin.  I've tried every kind of cream out there and there is no miracle. What I do see as a help is lip injections. I am in need of a fill now but since we are wearing masks all of the time, I will wait until this virus is over. In all honesty, it does help with the look of the above lip wrinkles.

I use WEN Bella Spirit Exfoliating Lip Scrub and that has diminished the lines so much that they can barely be seen. Have been using it for about a year, every morning and night.

I use Dr. Denese Wrinkle Defense for the face. That has made a big difference for me.

Regular lip exfoliation and faithfully use your face products (aha, serums, retinoid, moisturizer) there. 

 

if you’re a smoker or use straws regularly, it will be a never ending battle.

I use algenist liquid collagen lip serum. I do believe it helps a lot. I am a straw drinker too.

I'm interested...what type injectable, botox? And did it puff up your top lip...always see actresses with their distorted mouths and wondered if it's from injecting  those upper lip lines.

Much of it is do to loss of calcium in the jaw...missing teeth....dentures... cause loss of bone...cause sagging. It is inevitable with aging.

I use dermarolling and retin a but I'll probably consult with a dermatologist or ps about fillers sometime but I'm so afraid of looking like the Joker. 
The dermarolling does work but you have to be consistent like with everything else.
