How sever your upper lip wrinkles are is going to depend on how thick the skin in this area is. The depletion and lowering of collagen and elasin in the skin is the main reason why the skin will sag and develop wrinkles. Wrinkles are caused because of these skin changes while people age and can be speed up by the habits people have. The sagging and droopiness of the skin above the lip is what causes the wrinkles that can make a person look much older than they are.

Due to the loss of collagen and elasin in the upper lip causing wrinkles it is possible to help get rid of the wrinkled by constantly replacing those proteins. Collagen and elasin get depleted not only through the natural aging process but by how you treat your skin and body as well. The skin cells that make the proteins called fibroblasts are needed. These skin cells need to be reproduced at a rate faster then they are being lost to see some real improvement. There are over the counter and prescription remedies that will help to put collagen back in you skin and also plastic surgery procedures.

It is vital that you keep your body and your skin properly hydrated to stave off lip wrinkles. This mean drinking plenty of what and keeping you skin moisturized. There are lip balms and moisturizers on the market specifically designed to help with the aging process. They need to be used twice a day, especially at night where they can be put on in excess and then will have time to soak in undisturbed. There are also masks that contain high doses of collagen that can be used around the lips as well. They work by making the skin fuller and firmer. Having the skin properly moisturized will help it to absorb more of the collagen and other ingredients designed to rejuvenate the face.

Lips and the skin around them often get ignored during the exfoliation process. Just like any other skin this area need to be exfoliated at least twice a week. Exfoliation removes the dead skin cells from the skins surface and let the new show. It will add softness and tone to the skin because the dead cells make the skin look dull and drab. When removing the dead skin cells you also make the wrinkles less noticeable or it can help to prevent them from happening at all. If you exfoliated before using your moisturizer or collagen mask it will allow the skin to easier absorb the products for faster results.
