HOW DR SKNN CAN TREAT Downward Turned Mouth (Drooping Mouth Corners)

A downturned mouth is a facial expression where the corners of the mouth turn downward, giving a sad or grumpy appearance. It is caused by the muscles on the jaw called depressor anguli oris (DAO), which run from the corners of the lips down to the chin and tend to get stronger as we age.

At Dr Sknn Wilmslow Cheshire, we offer several effective treatments for reducing the appearance of a downward turned mouth

Anti-wrinkle injections are a popular and effective treatment for reducing the appearance of a downward turned mouth. The injections work by blocking the signals from the nerves to the facial muscles. This reduces the activity of the muscles that cause the downward turned mouth, resulting in a smoother and more relaxed appearance. This treatment is commonly called Botox for Downward Turned Mouth.
