How to get rid of mouth wrinkles on adult sims?

I wish I had some tips for you. I'm also very bothered by the fact that my YAs suddenly looked like they were pushing fifty-sixty years old upon aging to adults. We should have an option. Not everyone ages at the same rate. I'm sixty-eight and am just now showing the age-lines (I should say creases) around my mouth. Sheesh. I starred this post, just in case someone out there has an answer.

I feel like they weren't always there immediately, like it used to only be a skin detail but it was something that was added when we got infants and a nod to the fact that teens simply must be 18-19 I don't like it, I like to draw and though I'm not very good I notice people and I haven't seen these age lines much. #freedomfromtheagelinesofevil o:)

It is not possible to get rid of them without mods or CC. They are tied to the adult life stage in the code.

This thread is making me feel bad. I’m 28 and I already have lines there on my face. I think if adult sims are supposed to represent 30+ then it’s normal for them to have it unless I’m just wrinkling super early.

Is this happening with everyone's adults or just randomly?

My Julianna is an adult and she doesn't have any laugh lines/wrinkles.

Aw, the eternal quest for youth! Actually, all sim aging changes are dramatic, especially the childhood ones.
@83bienchen Thank you for the link to the cheek wrinkles CC. The mod was made several years ago, but I tried it in-game and it still works. I don't mind the extra wrinkles on some of my adult sims. For a couple though, I wanted to lessen the aging effects--just a subtle smoothing.

It's happening to every single adult. I can see them on your Julianna as well, @simgirl1010. I don't think it's too noticeable, though it depends on the skintone of your sims - just like with the skin details that are available in CAS.

Oh I see what you mean now. ??

I've had forehead lines since I was 16. :/

I think the lines are an attempt to distinguish adults from young adults because there are hardly any other differences between those two in the game. Luckily they are rather subtle (in my humble opinion, or due to my grafics card?)

What I don't like is that fact that we have no in game way to get rid of them. Why not make them optional? To force these lines on all adults feels like a certain form of ageisme, specially in a game that already feels like a young adult simulator for 90% of the content. Not everyone has these lines at the same age. The better solution is the grey hair for elders which can be changed if we want.
