Downturned Corners of the Mouth
Lift your smile naturally
The Downturned Corners of the Mouth Treatment is a non-surgical treatment designed to soften the appearance of mouth corners that naturally turn downwards.
As we age, or due to natural muscle activity, the muscles around the mouth can pull the corners down, creating a tired, sad or unhappy appearance, even when your face is relaxed.
How does it work?
The muscles responsible for pulling the corners of the mouth down are called the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO) muscles.
When these muscles become overactive, they can create a downward pull on the corners of the mouth, making the face appear less relaxed or approachable.
Carefully placed anti-wrinkle injections help relax the DAO muscles, reducing this downward pull.
This allows the muscles that naturally lift the corners of the mouth to work more effectively, creating a subtle, naturally uplifted appearance.
Every treatment is personalised based on your facial anatomy, muscle activity and desired outcome.
The aim is not to change your smile, but to restore balance and create a refreshed, natural-looking result.
