What it is

Targeted fractional CO₂ resurfacing of the fine vertical "barcode" lines above the upper lip, where lipstick bleeds and volume has thinned with age.

How it works

The laser removes the damaged outer layer and heats the dermis beneath it, rebuilding collagen from within rather than only smoothing the surface. Expect firmer, better-hydrated skin and a softer, more harmonious contour around the mouth as the area heals.

Why we use it

  • Smoother skin right where lipstick settles
  • A short, targeted session not a full-face laser
  • Often paired with lip filler for a complete result
