Smoker's Lines
about the procedure
Reduce the look of Smoker's Lines with Botox® injections
To reduce the appearance of the Smoker’s Lines, I will complete injections above the lip area and possibly below the vermillion border of the bottom lip. These injections offer a safe, approved, and non-surgical solution to many of the wrinkles and facial changes commonly associated with ageing and environmental exposures, including smoking.

Frequently asked questions
What our clients want to know about removing Smoker's Lines
I will complete an assessment to determine that you are a good candidate for Botox®. This will consist of basic questions and reviewing your medical history. Once your consultation is complete, the actual procedure could last a maximum of 10 minutes.
- avoid taking ibuprofen and aspirin one week before treatment
- avoid blood-thinning medication
- avoid vitamin E
- take arnica tablets to reduce bruising
The procedure is quick, safe, and non-invasive. After having Botox®, the following is a list of things to consider:
- wait 4 hours before lying down
- avoid using heat including hot showers or baths for 24 hours
- avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours
- avoid drinking alcohol for 24-48 hours
- avoid flying for 24- 48 hours
- avoid putting pressure on the face for one week
This is a quick treatment that requires little to no recovery time. Below are some recovery instructions
- avoid significant movement or massage of the treated area unless instructed by the provider
- avoid strenuous exercise for 24 hours as well as extensive sun or heat for 72 hours
- avoid consuming excess amounts of alcohol or salts
- do not lie down for four hours after a Botox injection to help prevent migration
- it can take approximately four days to a week for results can be seen
- the patient should not perform activities involving straining, heavy lifting, or vigorous exercise for six hours after treatment. This will help keep the Botox® in the injected area
It is best to consult with a certified medical professional as injectables come in a wide variety of applications and are not always suitable for everyone. Contact me for a consultation to determine the best treatment for you.
