Drooping corners of mouth

Otto Joseph Placik, MD answers: Treatment options for drooping mouth corners on younger people?

I am in my later 20s and I notice considerable drooping of the corners of my lips, comparing to photos taken in my mid 20s. They give me that frowning look. The corners of my lips are also drooping asymmetrically. I have heard of lip lift for mouth corners, dental facelift, and fillers. I worry that fuller lips from injecting filler will not harmonize with my Asian facial features. What are the best early interventions and procedures to correct the drooping and asymmetry?

I agree with many of the options described below. One other alternative for a longer lasting result may be a corner lift which is also known as an external angular oral commisuroplasty
