Most cost-effective procedure for drooping mouth corners?

SEE VIDEO BELOW: Cost effectiveness is a function of time. Fillers are the least expensive but provide the shortest duration correction whereas surgery may be more costly initially but be the longest lasting with no need for repetitiion.

At 61 years of age, the drooping mouth corners can be partially corrected with cosmetic fillers and injectables such as Restylane and Juvederm.   Additional correction can be performed with a facelift, but the surgeon needs to be very careful not to pull the corners of the mouth outward creating an... more

Hi, Thank you for your question. Your most cost-effective option at this point would be some sort of injectable filler such as Restylane, Juvaderm, or Radiesse. This will help fill out the wrinkles around your lips and raise the corners of the mouth. Results can vary, but I have seen some pretty significant... more

Soft tissue fillers (Restylane and Juvederm) are a very good, minimally invase way to address drooping at the corners of your mouth.  It takes less than 10 minutes to perform this office procedure.  The results can last anywhere from 6-9 months. There is no down time associated with the procedure... more

If you're looking for a non-invasive approach, however, filling the indented area below the corners of your mouth can give satisfying results. I attached a link for your perusal showing nice... more

For an economical result, Botox into the lip depressors and filler into the marionette lines works well, albeit temporarily.  We prefer hyaluronic acid fillers because of the high incidence of granulomas with Radiesse. For a more permanent result (this is only if you want to look your best), a well done... more

Hi! With Juvederm, we can inject a "pillar" under each corner of the mouth, and this pillar supports and raises the corner. Injecting 3 to 5 units of Botox halfway between the corners of the mouth and the jawline relaxes the muscle that pulls the corner down, and so the corner rises. The Juvederm... more

Dear Droopy You should be much more concerned about what is right rather than what is cost-effective. Yes, fillers can be fantastic ,but the costs do add up. At your age, it probably makes sense to consider a facelift. Ultimately, I find that some patients are really not so excited about having surgery. In... more
