How do I tighten the skin around my mouth and chin?

First, what caused the looseness in this area? Was it smoking, age, or sun damage? Once answered, you then have some actions to do. Obviously, cease smoking and sun exposure if these are the cause, otherwise it doesn't matter what you do; the wrinkles will continue. If these are not the problem, then laser resurfacing may help as a good start.

All energy based skin tightening technologies used by plastic surgeons, dermatologists and medspas are based on the premise of heating the dermis of your skin without burning the epidermis. Heating the dermis is a controlled injury that provokes new collagen to be formed. This consequently makes the skin firmer and more youthful. Various methods include the use of lasers, ultrasound and radio frequency to accomplish this goal.

Additionally, fillers can be useful in firming the skin around the mouth and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles.
