The frown lines make my whole mouth look like a big frown. People say I look unhappy when I just feel normal. I have to pull the sides of my mouth up (feels like i'm smiling) just for my mouth to look like a straight line. This is difficult to remember to do all day long at work! I look like a miserably unhappy person, which really puts people off. It's far from attractive & completely belies what I'm feeling on the inside! Can this be fixed without spending my life savings?!?

Sagging around mouth and jaw
When mild this sagging can be addressed by injection of a filler. The cost is in the hundreds depending on the type of filler and amount used. More severe sagging will require a more aggressive surgical approach. Without a photo I could not speculate which would be better for you or even if both is an option. If the skin pinch in front of your ears required to correct it is more than 1cm then surgery is your best option.
