Smooth vertical lip lines, restore natural softness and rejuvenate the mouth area with advanced wrinkled lip treatments by Dr Rami Haidar in Dubai.
Wrinkled lips are caused by a combination of natural ageing, sun damage, repeated lip movement, and lifestyle factors. The skin on the lips is thinner than skin elsewhere on the face and has fewer oil glands, which means it loses hydration and shows fine lines earlier than other areas. Five common drivers explain most cases of wrinkled lips:


Wrinkled lips, sometimes called lip lines or smoker’s lines, develop when the delicate skin around the mouth loses collagen and elasticity. These lines can appear as fine vertical creases, texture changes or deeper folds that make the lips look aged or dehydrated.
Common reasons wrinkled lips appear include:
Natural ageing and collagen loss
Repeated lip movement from speaking or pursing the lips
Sun exposure and environmental stress
Genetics and naturally thin lip skin
Smoking or long term dehydration
Because the lip area is delicate and expressive, Dr Rami focuses on subtle, precise treatments that restore smoothness without creating an overfilled or artificial look.


Dr Rami Haidar is a dual-qualified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon and Aesthetic Physician based at Excellence Medical Boutique in Jumeirah, Dubai. The lip area sits at the junction of oral and facial anatomy, which is exactly the territory of a maxillofacial surgeon. This background informs every lip treatment Dr Rami offers, from the precise placement of HA filler to the surgical lip lift technique used when a structural change is the right choice. The goal is always to preserve natural expression, lip movement, and the unique character of your smile.
Dr Rami offers several scientifically supported options for improving wrinkled lips and restoring smoothness to the mouth area. Your treatment plan may include regenerative injectables, subtle volume restoration and targeted muscle relaxation to achieve a soft and natural result.
Lip filler can help soften deeper vertical lines and restore gentle volume where the lips have thinned over time. Dr Rami uses soft, flexible filler to enhance shape without changing your natural proportions. Lip filler can:
Results are subtle, balanced and designed to maintain natural lip movement.
Polynucleotides are regenerative injectables that repair and strengthen thinning lip skin. They improve elasticity and hydration from within, making them ideal for fine lines that are not caused by volume loss. They can:
Polynucleotides work especially well for patients with very fine or delicate lip lines.
Skin boosters deliver deep hydration to the lip area and surrounding skin. They help smooth fine lines by improving elasticity and plumpness without adding volume. They can:
Skin boosters are a gentle option for patients who want smoother lips without fuller lips.
Anti wrinkle injections can be used in very small doses around the mouth to soften dynamic lines caused by repeated lip movement. This technique requires precision to avoid affecting natural expression. They can:
If vertical lip lines, lost lip definition, or perioral wrinkles are bothering you, the right starting point is an honest assessment. Dr Rami will look at the skin quality, lip anatomy, and the type of lines present, then recommend whether HA filler, polynucleotides, anti-wrinkle injections, a surgical lip lift, or a combination is the better path for you.
Wrinkled lips are caused by natural ageing, collagen loss, sun damage, repeated lip movement, and lifestyle factors such as smoking and dehydration. The skin on the lips is thinner than skin elsewhere on the face, so it shows fine lines earlier.
Wrinkled lips can be significantly improved with the right combination of treatments. Hyaluronic acid filler smooths structural lines, polynucleotides improve skin quality, and anti-wrinkle injections soften movement-related lines. A consultation determines which combination suits your lips.
It depends on the type of line. Vertical lines that are visible at rest are usually treated with HA filler or polynucleotides. Lines that only appear when you purse or smile are dynamic and may respond better to a small dose of anti-wrinkle injection placed around the mouth.
Yes. Polynucleotides are regenerative injectables that improve skin quality from within. For wrinkled lips, they are placed in the lip skin and surrounding area to stimulate fibroblast activity, improve hydration, and gradually soften fine lines.
HA filler in the lip area typically lasts 6 to 9 months. Polynucleotides build improvement over a course of 2 to 3 sessions, with results that can hold for 6 to 9 months. Anti-wrinkle injections around the lips last around 3 to 4 months.
Numbing cream is applied before treatment and most HA fillers contain a built-in anaesthetic. Most patients describe the sensation as mild pressure rather than pain.
Downtime is minimal. Mild swelling and bruising can occur in the first 24 to 72 hours. Most patients return to normal activities the same day or the next day.
Yes, in most cases. Dr Rami will assess any existing filler at consultation and recommend whether to dissolve it, build on it, or use a different treatment such as polynucleotides depending on the result you want.
Yes. Smoking and vaping accelerate collagen breakdown in the lip skin and the repeated pursing action of smoking deepens vertical lines over time.

This depends on the cause of your lines. Fine surface creases respond well to skin boosters and polynucleotides, while deeper structural lines may benefit from subtle lip filler. Anti wrinkle injections help when lip movement contributes to the lines.
No. Dr Rami uses precise micro techniques to maintain the natural shape and avoid any artificial fullness. His focus is on smoothness, hydration and subtle rejuvenation.
Lip filler results typically last six to nine months. Polynucleotides and skin boosters provide gradual improvements that build over time. Anti wrinkle injections usually last around three months.
Minimal. Some swelling or tenderness may occur, especially after lip filler, but this usually settles within a few days.
Lip filler gives immediate improvement. Polynucleotides and skin boosters build progressively over several weeks. Anti wrinkle injections take effect within a few days.
