Every woman dreams of an ideal lip shape, but with age the skin becomes less firm, facial muscles lose tone. As a result, the corners of the mouth droop, and the face takes on a dissatisfied or sad expression.

A friendly facial expression always evokes sympathy from others. However, middle-aged people cannot always boast a youthful cheerful smile. Drooping corners of the mouth create an impression of gloominess and dissatisfaction. Cosmetic defects in the perioral area are associated with loss of muscle tone in the middle part of the face and reduction of the subcutaneous fat layer.

Indications

  • drooping corners of the mouth;

  • folds at the corners of the mouth.

Contraindications

  • pregnancy and breastfeeding;

  • oncological diseases;

  • blood clotting disorders;

  • local or systemic infection at the time of the procedure.

Depressor muscles are directly involved in facial expressions and are therefore highly mobile. During negative emotions, the corners of the mouth turn downward, giving a sad appearance. Later, traces of emotion disappear, and the mouth returns to its natural contours. This is typical at a young age.

However, over time muscle elasticity decreases, and a sorrowful expression becomes a constant companion. This is also promoted by gravity, under the influence of which all facial tissues seem to “slide” downward.

How the Procedure Is Performed

Hyaluronic acid fills the space beneath the folds in the perioral area and pushes them outward. The areas beneath the corners of the mouth are lifted, so the facial expression no longer appears sad.

The procedure is performed with a needle or cannula, but no additional anesthesia is required, as the product contains an anesthetic, making the procedure comfortable and painless.

After the procedure, slight redness may remain, which resolves within 1 hour. Bruising is possible.

    No, the procedure does not affect lip volume. It only lifts the corners of the mouth.

    Yes, this can be improved at any age. But if the issue has existed since childhood, it may be related to an improper bite. A dental consultation may be needed to improve the bite.
