What are Bar code or smoker’s line?
Barcode lines, also known as smoker’s lines, are the fine vertical lines that develop around the mouth and upper lip. These lines can result from repetitive lip movements, aging, and, in some cases, smoking, which accelerates the breakdown of collagen in this delicate area. Treatments to address these lines focus on restoring smoothness and firmness to the skin, creating a youthful and refreshed appearance.
