Overview
The perioral region forms the framework for beautiful lips and can influence the entire aesthetic facial appearance. Age-related changes of this region are caused by the underlying orbicularis oris muscle and the perioral fibro-fatty tissue layer. Learn in this video how perioral lines (= Barcode Lines) are formed and addressed with soft tissue fillers via a needle-based injection technique.
