Which procedure would minimize the droopy appearance of the right side of my mouth? (photo)

Addressing asymmetry or drooping on one side of the mouth can involve various treatment options, depending on the underlying cause. Here are a few potential procedures that might help minimize a droopy appearance:

Botox Injections: If the drooping is due to muscle imbalance, Botox can be used to relax the overactive muscles on the unaffected side, helping to balance the appearance.

Dermal Fillers: Fillers can be used to add volume and support to the drooping side, potentially improving symmetry and reducing the appearance of sagging.

Facial Exercises: In some cases, targeted facial exercises can help strengthen the muscles and improve symmetry over time.

Surgical Options: For more pronounced or structural issues, surgical procedures such as a mini facelift or a lip lift might be considered to achieve a more balanced appearance.

Physical Therapy: If the drooping is due to nerve-related issues or muscle weakness, physical therapy might help improve muscle tone and function.

I recommend consulting with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon who can evaluate your specific situation, review any photos or assessments, and provide personalized recommendations based on your needs and goals.

Marionette Jowls around the mouth are routinely treated these days with the use of a robust HA lifting filler. In the hands of an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist filler expert injector, the procedure should take no more than about fifteen minutes to perform and with immediate, on-the-spot results and engender little to no significant downtime. Hope this helps and best of luck.

You will have the best results from a combination of treatments. Fillers can give support to the underlying tissues and soften the appearance of the lines by the side of your mouth. You can consider adding Morpheus8 treatments which improve overall skin tone and texture. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Dear rdh07,
Downturned corners (commissures) of the mouth can contribute an aged look and the development of marionette lines. Chemodenervation (Botox) of a small depressor muscle at the corner of the mouth and volume filler of the marionette line area can improve the "droopy" appearance significantly. Good luck!

You have a couple options depending on how far you are willing to take things.
If you're looking for a quick, temporary option, then selective neurotoxin (e.g., Botox) to the depressor muscles as well as filler/fat/PRF could help to improve those areas.

If you're looking for a more "permanent" solution, then a facelift is warranted.
