DAO Botox Pros and Cons - will this help the downturn in my lips? (Photos)

April 25, 2025
Asked By:courtneyatx in Boulder, Colorado

I had a lip lift which resulted in a crease and downturn (frown line) in my lips. I am not interested in filler. I do anticipate getting a facelift at some point, but in the meantime I am considering DAO botox but I have read that sometimes it can create smile issues (asymmetry) and/or increase joweling.
