What are smokers lines?
Smoker’s lines are small, vertical lip lines that appear primarily above your upper lip. They’re often associated with smoking, but may also arise from things like sun exposure, ageing, having naturally thin lips, or even your family history. These lines can begin as fine creases in your 20s or 30s, deepening with time.
Smoker’s lines can start becoming prominent and make your lips appear thinner, adding to the signs of aging. Though some frown lines are part of the normal ageing process, excess can affect the appearance of your mouth. Fortunately, there are quick and easy options to help plump up a lip line or two and leave your lips looking a little smoother and more youthful.
Smokers lines vs smile lines
Smokers Lines
Smile Lines
Smoker’s lines don’t require immediate medical intervention, but if they bother you or impact your confidence, it’s a good idea to seek professional advice. A dermatologist at Harley Street Skin Clinic can advise on treatments and options that would help smooth the fine vertical lines, improve your skin and stimulate collagen production.
As you age, it’s perfectly natural for lip lines to develop. This is due to our skin reducing collagen and elastin production, proteins that help keep the skin smooth, plump, and hydrated.
Other factors, such as alcohol, poor sleep, smoking and sunlight increase lip wrinkles in the skin and can accelerate wrinkles around your lips.
The below are contributing factors to the development of smokers lip lines:
It can affect some people’s perception of their appearance, making them feel older or less confident.
As time goes on, these lines can make skin around the mouth appear uneven or textured.
Around the mouth area, smoker’s lines can give aged looks.
These lines can cause makeup to settle into them, which in turn can make the wrinkles more pronounced.

Does quitting smoking prevent smoker’s lines?
Yes, if you smoke, quitting smoking is the best way to prevent smoker’s lines from worsening. Smoking destroys collagen and limits blood flow to the skin. Quitting cigarettes is also good for your skin and reduces the rate at which wrinkles form.
What happens to the skin after quitting?
Your skin begins to heal when you quit smoking. While it does not remove lines, it can give a more even skin tone and prevent the appearance of future lines. Skin can look fresher over time, and any treatments you decide to try may also be more effective.
Excessive sun can destroy collagen and elastin, and generate new wrinkles, including smoker’s lines. Wearing sunscreen every day even on cloudy days protects your skin and may help prevent early signs of ageing around the mouth.
The best way to protect your lips from the sun
Wear an SPF lip balm, and reapply often specifically when outside. Add a wide-brimmed hat or find shade when the sun is at its strongest. This one simple habit does wonders to prevent lip lines from deepening.
Yes, hydration keeps skin plump and soft. So when your body is deficient in water, your skin might appear dry and dull, which can make wrinkles appear more prominent. Sufficient water intake daily helps glow skin inside out.
Keep in mind
Aim for at least 6 to 8 glasses of water each day, more if you’re active or in a hot climate. Eating water-containing foods like fruits and veggies can also help your skin to hydrate naturally.
Products with beneficial ingredients such as retinol, peptides, and hyaluronic acid can aid skin texture and firmness. Gentle exfoliation and daily moisturising also keep skin supple and diminish the appearance of fine lines.
Habits to avoid
Avoid harsh products that can dry you out as well, and try not to rub at your mouth and surrounding area too much. Gentle care through a simple, consistent routine builds your skin’s strength and youth over the years.
Doing the same lip movements time after time, such as sipping through straws or frequently puckering your lips, can lead to fine lines. These motions wrinkle the skin and as time goes on, those lines can become permanent.
Reducing these movements
You should be drinking directly from cups, not straws, and especially avoiding lip puckering in general. Making small changes to your daily habits can help keep the skin around your mouth smooth for longer.
