Lifting the corners of the mouth with fillers: Restore a friendly and youthful appearance without surgery
Downturned corners of the mouth, also known as marionette lines, can impart a tired or stern expression. These downward lines often result from natural aging, facial volume loss, or excessive muscle tension around the mouth corners. A treatment with hyaluronic acid fillers offers an effective, non-surgical solution to lift the mouth corners and rejuvenate your appearance.
By strategically adding volume with fillers, the mouth corners can be elevated, resulting in a softer and more approachable facial expression. This treatment is suitable for both men and women experiencing downturned mouth corners and seeking a subtle yet effective enhancement. The outcome is a natural-looking, cheerful appearance that enhances overall facial contours.
During the treatment, which typically lasts between 15 to 30 minutes, the attending physician will determine the appropriate amount of filler needed to achieve the desired improvement. Using a fine needle or cannula, the filler is injected directly into the mouth corners to plump the skin and lift the corners. The procedure is virtually painless, especially with the application of a numbing cream, and results are immediately visible. Any minor swelling or redness usually subsides within a few days.
The effects of the fillers typically last between 6 to 12 months, depending on factors such as the type of filler, individual metabolism, and lifestyle. To maintain long-lasting results, periodic touch-up treatments can be performed. Fillers provide a safe and effective method to lift downturned mouth corners without surgery or extended recovery time.
