Are Downturned Mouth Corners Affecting Your Confidence

Are Downturned Mouth Corners Affecting Your Confidence?

Downturned mouth corners can make you appear sad, tired, or unapproachable, even when you’re feeling content. This can impact your self-esteem and how others perceive you. While anti-wrinkle injections can relax the muscles pulling down the corners of your mouth, dermal fillers offer a different approach by adding volume and support to lift the corners upward. At Monaz Clinic, we specialise in using premium dermal fillers like Juvederm®, Restylane®, and Teosyal® to correct downturned mouth corners and rejuvenate your smile.

What Are Dermal Fillers?

Dermal fillers are injectable gels composed of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the skin. They work by:

  • Adding Volume: Restoring lost volume to lift and support facial structures.
  • Hydrating Skin: Attracting moisture to improve skin elasticity.
  • Enhancing Facial Contours: Providing subtle lift for a more youthful appearance.

Dermal Fillers vs. Anti-Wrinkle Injections for Downturned Mouth Corners

Understanding the Difference:

Anti-Wrinkle Injections (e.g., BOTOX®):

  • Function: Relax muscles (depressor anguli oris) that pull the mouth corners downward.
  • Ideal For: Muscular causes of downturned mouth corners.
  • Duration: Results last 3 to 4 months.

Dermal Fillers:

  • Function: Add volume and support to lift the mouth corners upward.
  • Ideal For: Volume loss, structural support, and correcting asymmetry.
  • Duration: Results last 6 to 18 months.

Which Treatment Is Right for You?

  • Muscular Causes: If the downturn is mainly due to overactive muscles, anti-wrinkle injections may be sufficient.
  • Volume Loss or Structural Issues: If volume loss or skin laxity is contributing, dermal fillers can effectively lift and support the area.
  • Combination Approach: Often, combining both treatments provides optimal results for a lifted, youthful smile.

The Treatment Process

Complimentary Consultation
  • Personalised Assessment: We’ll discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals.
  • Facial Analysis: Evaluate skin elasticity, muscle activity, and volume loss to tailor your treatment plan.
Preparation
  • Anaesthetic Cream: Applied to ensure maximum comfort.
  • Cleansing: The treatment area is thoroughly cleansed.
Procedure
  • Duration: Approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
  • Technique: Using fine needles or cannulas, dermal filler is carefully injected into targeted areas around the mouth corners.
  • Comfort: Minimal discomfort; many fillers contain lidocaine for added comfort.
Post-Treatment
  • Immediate Results: Noticeable lift and improvement right after the procedure.
  • Aftercare Instructions: We’ll provide guidance to ensure optimal results.

Results and Expectations

  • Immediate Lift: Elevates the mouth corners for a more pleasant expression.
  • Natural Appearance: Enhanced but not overdone; maintains facial harmony and natural expressions.
  • Longevity: Results can last from 6 to 18 months depending on the product used and individual factors.
  • Maintenance Treatments: Recommended to sustain and prolong results.

Aftercare and Recovery

Post-Treatment Advice
  • Avoid Touching the Area: Do not rub or massage for 6 hours.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to enhance hyaluronic acid’s effects.
  • 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.
Possible Side Effects
  • Common: Mild redness, swelling, or bruising at the injection site.
  • Less Common: Temporary tenderness or small lumps, which usually resolve on their own.
  • Rare: Allergic reactions or vascular complications; we’ll review your medical history thoroughly.
Risks and Complications

While dermal fillers are generally safe, potential risks include:

  • Bruising and Swelling: Usually mild and temporary.
  • Asymmetry: Correctable with adjustments.
  • Infection: Rare due to sterile techniques used.
  • Lumps or Nodules: Can be treated if persistent.

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

Anaesthetics
  • Topical Numbing Cream: Applied to enhance comfort during the procedure.
  • Lidocaine-Infused Fillers: Many fillers contain lidocaine for additional pain relief.
