Are Downturned Mouth Corners Making You Look Sad or Unapproachable?

Downturned mouth corners can give an unintended impression of sadness or disapproval, even when you’re feeling content. This can affect your confidence and how others perceive you. At Monaz Clinic, we offer injections to gently lift the corners of your mouth, helping you achieve a more positive and approachable appearance while maintaining your natural expressions.

What Are Downturned Mouth Corners?

  • A condition where the corners of the mouth droop downward.
  • Caused By:
    • Aging: Loss of skin elasticity and muscle tone.
    • Genetics: Some people naturally have downturned mouth corners.
    • Gravity and Muscle Pull: Overactive muscles pulling the mouth corners downward.
  • Impact: Can make you appear sad, angry, or unapproachable.

Why Consider Anti-Wrinkle Injections for Downturned Mouth Corners?

  • Quick Results: Notice improvements within 3 to 5 days.
  • Non-Surgical Solution: No incisions or significant downtime.
  • Natural-Looking Results: Lift mouth corners without altering your expressions.
  • Boosted Confidence: Feel more positive and confident in your appearance.
  • Preventative Care: Helps prevent further down turning over time.

how is downturned mouth corner treatment works

How Does the Treatment Work?

  • Muscle Relaxation: Anti-Wrinkle Injections block nerve signals to the muscles (depressor anguli oris) that pull the mouth corners downward.
  • Lifted Appearance: With these muscles relaxed, the upward-pulling muscles (zygomaticus major and minor) elevate the mouth corners.
  • Balanced Smile: Creates a more neutral or slightly upturned mouth corner, enhancing your natural smile.
  • Preserved Expressions: Only specific muscles are treated, so your natural facial movements remain intact.

The Treatment Process

  • Personalised Assessment: We’ll discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals.
  • Facial Analysis: Using advanced techniques to tailor your treatment plan.
  • Anaesthetic Option: A topical numbing cream is available if desired, though most patients find it unnecessary.
  • Cleansing: The area around your mouth is thoroughly cleansed.
  • Duration: Approximately 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Technique: Using ultra-fine needles, small amounts of Anti-Wrinkle Injections are injected into the targeted muscles.
  • Comfort: Minimal discomfort; most patients describe it as a slight pinch.
  • Immediate Recovery: No significant downtime; you can resume normal activities.
  • Aftercare Instructions: We’ll provide guidance to ensure optimal results.

Results and Expectations

  • When Will You See Results? Initial effects in 3 to 5 days, full results by 10 to 14 days.
  • How Long Do Results Last? Typically 3 to 4 months.
  • Maintenance Treatments: Recommended every 3 to 4 months to sustain results.

Aftercare and Recovery

  • Treatment Advice

    • Avoid Touching the Area: Do not rub or massage the treated area for 24 hours.
    • Stay Upright: Remain upright for at least 4 hours post-treatment.
    • No Strenuous Activity: Avoid heavy exercise for 24 hours.
    • Skip Alcohol and Blood Thinners: Avoid for 24 hours to minimise bruising.
    • Avoid Heat Exposure: No saunas, hot tubs, or direct sun exposure for 48 hours.
  • Immediate Return: Most patients go back to work and normal activities right away.
  • Common: Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site.
  • Less Common: Temporary discomfort or slight asymmetry.
  • Rare: Allergic reactions; we’ll review your medical history thoroughly.

While the treatment is safe and effective, potential risks include:

  • Asymmetry: Slight unevenness, usually correctable.
  • Infection: Very rare due to sterile techniques used.
  • Difficulty with Certain Movements: Temporary and resolves as the Anti-Wrinkle Injections wears off.

Your safety is our top priority. We’ll discuss all potential risks during your consultation.
