I've never seen lines where I put the razor to my face. Perhaps you pressed too hard.

I would also suggest extending your preshave routine. You could lather up with warm lather before you strop, then relather for the shave. You could take a nice hot shower before shaving. Or there are a number of preshave products that you could apply to your face, but I've never gone beyond the two methods above.
