Thin Lips
Do you have thin lips and desire a fuller and plumper pout? MySkyn Clinic offers advanced treatments to treat thin lips and provide you with your dreamy lip volume and shape. Our tailored and expert treatments keep our clients coming back to us.
Understanding Thin Lips
Thinning lips are a normal condition. You may have thin lips by birth, or as you age, your skin loses its volume and hydration, which causes your lips to shrink and get thin. Collagen production decreases over time, along with the skin of your face. The lip’s skin loses its structure and shrinks, and fine lines may also appear on your lips.
Causes of Thin Lips
Thinning lips can be because of the following:
Genetics : You may have thin lips by birth. If other family members have thin lips, it may be in your DNA.
Ageing : As we age, our body produces less collagen (a protein essential for skin’s firmness and structure). Less collagen means less volume and firmness in the lips.
Sun Damage : Excessive exposure to the sun is harmful to the delicate skin of lips. It leads to lips thinning over time.
Dehydration : Poor hydration makes the lips look shrink-dry and have less volume over time.
Smoking : Smoking compromises collagen production and speeds up ageing, thus contributing to thin lips appearance.
Appearance of Thin Lips
Thin lips may look like:
- Narrow in width
- Lack of volume and plumpness
- Less defined edges and Cupid’sCupid’s bow
- Visible fine lines
- Dry and cracky
- Pale pigmented
- Minimal natural protrusion
- Difficulty holding lipstick
Thin Lips Treatment At MySkyn Clinic
At MySkyn Clinic, we understand the consciousness that comes with thin lips. If you are not happy with your lips getting thinner as you age and want to restore your youthful pout, explore our range of treatments.
We offer the following treatments with personalised plans for you to achieve desired outcomes:
Lip fillers–a dermal filler treatment injecting a gel-like substance into your lips. The substance is medical grade and gives results for about 6-12 months. This treatment works by restoring the volume into your lips for a fuller and defined appearance. With minimal recovery time, lip fillers allow you to be in and out of the clinic on the same day and notice quick lip enhancement.
SkinPen microneedling is an advanced technology for achieving fuller lips. The microneedling pen causes tiny injuries to the skin of your lips. These injuries trigger the natural healing response and promote collagen and elastin production. These essential proteins contribute to the lips’ natural volume, shape, and resilience. This treatment takes a few days to achieve the desired outcome.
Topical Treatment —SkinCare Products
Our expert practitioners also prescribe high-quality lip care products that can provide temporary plumping effects and improve lip health. They include lip serums and balms containing hyaluronic acid, peptides, and antioxidants.
Your experience at MySkyn Clinic begins with a thorough medical consultation with Dr. Uzma Qureshi. She will discuss your desired aesthetic goals, assess your lips, and suggest the best treatment. The consultation will also discuss treatment procedures, care, and costs.
