Downturned mouth corners are caused by overactivity of the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscle. This muscle attaches to the mouth corners and pulls them down. It often gets stronger with age.
Downturned mouth corners can leave you looking tired, angry and unhappy, and are a common sign of ageing.
We use downturned mouth injections to lift your mouth corners. The treatment uses the muscle relaxing property of anti-wrinkle injections to relax the DAO (depressor anguli oris) muscles.
Relaxing the DAO muscle then leads to a lifting effect of your mouth corners.
The ideal candidate for downturned mouth injections is someone with sagging mouth corners, with an heavier looking smile.
The DAO (depressor anguli oris) muscle is located at the front of your jawline and attaches to your mouth corners. Its pulls your mouth corners down when speaking and making certain facial expressions.
With age, the DAO muscles become hyperactive, causing your mouth corners to constantly pull down. This gives you an angry or unhappy expression.
Downturned mouth injections are an effective treatment option to relax the DAO muscles and lift your mouth corners.
The DAO (depressor anguli oris) muscle causes a downturned mouth by pulling down on the mouth corners.
The DAO attaches from the jawbone to the mouth corners. When it contracts, it draws the mouth corners down and out, creating a sad appearance.
Downturned mouth injections relax the DAO (depressor anguli oris) muscles. The DAO muscles pull your mouth corners down and out. By relaxing the muscles, we can lift your mouth corners.
Downturned mouth injections are a simple treatment.
After your consultation, we clean and mark the skin.
Using tiny needles, we precisely place muscle-relaxant to your depressor anguli oris muscles.
There are 1-2 injections per side.
Downturned mouth injections take less than 5 minutes.
When performed correctly, downturned mouth injections have very little discomfort. We use tiny needles, and have a range of numbing options available if your are concerned about pain.
