Surgery for Drooping Mouth?

Good day! Ask your doctor about corner lift that focuses on the outer edge of the upper lip to the corner. This procedure is used to raise the corner of the mouth and improves the look of despair. The small incision is closed with dissolving sutures and can be covered with make up within the week.This is performed in the office  under a local anaesthetic in less than an hour. It is best to find a board-certified plastic surgeon that has extensive experience with your case and discuss realistic goals and expectations. Best of luck! #RealSelf100

Thank you for your question. The Lip Lift procedure is performed to accentuate the size and/or shape of the upper lip by removing skin from the region just underneath the nose. As the distance is decreased between the nose and the lip, the red lip is 'lifted'. In appropriate individuals, shortening this distance may impart or restore a more favorable balance to lips and face.

Some degree of facial asymmetry is entirely normal. A Lip Lift or Corner Lip Lift may be employed to improve symmetry by 'shortening' or 'lifting' the side which appears to be positioned lower. However, there are several possible contributors to facial asymmetry and some contributors are more complicated than simple soft tissue excess. I would advise you to consult in person with a facial plastic surgeon with experience performing this procedure.

The procedure that best treats drooping at the corner of the mouth is a corner lip lift. In very early, minimal instances, botox can be used to paralyze  the corner depressors of the mouth to help elevate this area. However, a facelift, cheek lift or fillers will have no significant effect.
