About the Treatment
Smooth and rejuvenate fine lines around the mouth with perioral line filler
Perioral lines, often called smoker’s lines or lip lines, can develop over time due to ageing, repetitive movements, and lifestyle factors. Dermal fillers offer a non-surgical solution to smooth these fine lines, restoring a youthful and refreshed look while maintaining a natural appearance. This treatment softens the area around the mouth, enhancing lip definition and creating a smoother contour.
At Smooth Dimensions, our Advanced Aesthetic Nurse, Fiona Mahandru, is highly skilled in treating perioral lines with precision. By carefully targeting these lines, Fiona ensures balanced, subtle results tailored to your aesthetic goals.

Is the treatment safe?

Is there any downtime?
There is little to no downtime. Most patients resume normal activities immediately, although it's advised to avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours. You may experience some swelling, redness, and bruising at the injection sites, which typically subside within a few days.
Is there anything I need to do before my treatment?
To minimise bruising, swelling, and complications, avoid the following before your appointment:
7 days before treatment:
- Ibuprofen, naproxen, and other NSAIDs.
- Alcohol – increases the risk of bruising and swelling.
- Omega-3 & vitamin E – can thin the blood and increase bruising.
- Herbal supplements, especially Ginkgo Biloba, St. John’s Wort, and Ginseng – increases the risk of bruising.
24 to 48 hours before treatment:
- Caffeine – can increase sensitivity and bruising risk.
- Intense exercise – can increase blood flow and worsen swelling or bruising.
On the day of treatment:
- Arrive makeup-free if possible.
- Stay hydrated and eat a light meal to prevent feeling lightheaded.
- Avoid alcohol and excessive caffeine.
If you are prone to bruising, Arnica supplements may help when taken a few days before treatment.
What are perioral lines?
Perioral lines, often called smoker's lines, are fine vertical lines around the mouth caused by ageing or repetitive movements.
When will I see results?
Results are visible immediately after the procedure, with optimal results appearing as swelling subsides within a few days.
