Verve Medical Cosmetics Reveals the Cure for 'The Incredible Shrinking Lips'

The Founder of New York's premier non-surgical medical aesthetic practice shares how to keep a uniquely picture-perfect pout.

NEW YORK, March 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Stephen Bracci, Founder and Medical Director of VERVE Medical Cosmetics, New York's premier non-surgical medical spa and anti-aging treatment studio, shares his tips for helping clients maintain a youthful and natural smile that can withstand the ravages of time and weather.

"Your eyes aren't deceiving you, as we get older our lips get thinner, lose plumpness and are more subject to dryness and chapping," says Dr. Bracci. "This is the result of hormone changes due to aging. But with Spring around the corner, now is the time for men and women to 'plump' up the volume when it comes to their smile."

For 25 years, VERVE Medical Cosmetics has been helping clients manage the aging process with immediate, natural results through the use of injectables and fillers. According to Dr. Bracci, fillers are an ideal remedy for shrinking lips because they not only create fuller, plumper lips but also offer a noticeable improvement in hydration.

"The 'perfect lip' is going to look different for everyone, but subtle enhancements to the upper and lower lips can achieve a natural look for those seeking a youthful appearance without the exaggerated results that have filled gossip magazines," he says.

To treat shrinking lips, Dr. Bracci focuses on two different issues: lip plumpness, as well as the shape of the mouth area around the lips. This comprehensive approach is a hallmark of the treatment philosophy pioneered by Dr. Bracci, which considers the full structure of the area being enhanced.

To restore lip plumpness, Dr. Bracci uses hyaluronic acid fillers, such as Juvederm, Restylane, and Versa. These injectable dermal fillers are derived from a substance that naturally occurs in the body and is expertly applied to complement each client's lip shape and size. "This ensures that the results are not just beautiful but also unique to the client," says Dr. Bracci. "Moreover, the effects are durable, with fuller lips lasting up to six months or more, depending on the product and the individual's metabolism."

For the most natural-looking results, the overall shape of the mouth must be addressed by treating the surrounding areas. "If the lips are plump but the area around the mouth is hollow, then the lip treatment can look obvious and unnatural," Dr. Bracci points out. By restoring support around the entire mouth, including the nasolabial folds (from the nose to the corner of the mouth) and the area below the corners of the mouth (sometimes called marionette lines), he restores the natural shape of the entire mouth.

Dr. Bracci cautions that maintaining lip health is as important as enhancing lip appearance. He advises regular hydration, using sun protection and applying quality skincare products to ensure lips stay healthy and natural.
