About the Condition
Discover effective treatments to soften smile & laughter lines
Smile or laughter lines are fine to moderate creases that appear around the corners of the mouth when you smile or laugh. They are often a combination of dynamic and static wrinkles, initially caused by the repetitive movement of facial muscles during expressions, and later set in place by decreasing levels of collagen and elastin as part of the ageing process. Over time, these lines can deepen and remain visible, even when your face is at rest.
Whether you’re noticing early signs of these lines or more pronounced wrinkles, Smooth Dimensions offers a range of treatment options to help smooth and revitalise the area around your mouth.

Condition Causes
Common causes for smile & laughter lines
Smile or laughter lines primarily result from the repeated contraction of muscles around the mouth during expressions. As collagen and elastin production diminishes with age, the skin loses its ability to bounce back, causing these dynamic lines to become static over time. Additional factors, such as sun exposure, dehydration, and lifestyle habits like smoking, can further break down skin integrity, intensifying the appearance of lines. Genetics also plays a role in determining how early and prominently these wrinkles form.
Understanding these causes is key to selecting the most effective strategies for minimising smile/laughter lines.
