Wrinkled Lips Indicate Gut Problems—with Before and After Photos

Face Reading Works

Vertical lip lines show gut problems according to traditional Face Reading. They, along with color and skin tone irregularities, point to poor digestive health. Correcting your diet helps you regain smooth lips as we see in the before and after photos below.

Sixty-five-year-old Georgette form NYC consulted with me last year because of her fatigue and chronic constipation. She had followed a limited diet for many years. When she veered off of it, it triggered debilitating diarrhea and cramps.  

Photos Show How Quickly Improvements Happen

I gave recommendations specific to her condition, and a month later Georgette sent a second photo, which shows impressive improvements. Ten months later, she’s sent a third photo. Let’s see what story her photos tell us. 

But first, mouth region characteristics that point to good digestion are:

• The lips are smooth and, seniors excepted, the skin above the mouth is also smooth. 
• Lips and skin are uniformly colored and well-toned (in some races, the inner lip is pinker).
• The border between lips and skin is precise rather than blurred. 

• Lip texture—wrinkled and puckered
• Skin color—variable
• Lip color—pale pink, white and gray
• Lip borders—blurred and pink (pink suggests inflammation)
• Skin tone below the mouth—swollen and pouchy

• Lip texture—less wrinkled
• Skin color—more uniform and more pink (pink often appears during detox)
• Lip color—more uniform
• Lip borders—more defined and less pink
• Skin tone below the mouth—reduced swelling 

• Lip texture—significantly smoother
• Skin color—more uniform 
• Lip color—more uniform, but some white/blue
• Lip borders—almost no pink, more precise definition
• Skin tone below the mouth—swelling further reduced

Time to Rejoice

Georgette’s mouth-region irregularities, showed that she was eating foods that were for her, gut irritants, and that she needed digestive aids. In a detailed Face Reading Report, I provided guidelines. As she implemented them, her digestion continues to improve, she steadily regains her energy and healthy bowel function and overall feels better.

Of note is that she’s accomplished this impressive shift while caretaking her live-in, 92-year-old father. If Georgette, a senior herself, can do it, my hunch is that you can as well. We rejoice in her regained health.
