QThe wrinkles around my mouth are becoming much more prominent. Is there a natural way I can make them less visible? Ann, Newcastle

AUnfortuna­tely, there isn’t a way to reduce wrinkles around the mouth once they have been establishe­d.

The reason for that is because the muscles around the mouth are very strong and once the wrinkles are there they are well establishe­d, almost like scars.

However, there are ways to stop the process from progressin­g and making the wrinkles any worse.

Avoid movements that involve pursing your lips.

These include things like smoking, drinking from a straw and pouting your lips.

Make sure you are drinking plenty of water and eating a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruit and green leafy vegetables.

You could also look to use collagen boosting products such as serums and vitamin A and C

based products.
