I just learned about Botox to the DAO. I was under the impression that the area by the green arrow is jowl fat and can be removed with lipo. Will I be a good candidate for Botox in this area to prevent the lips from sagging down or is this something else. Thanks.
Answer: Botox in the DAO area. Thank you for your question. This area is not the DAO muscle. Botox can be used to help the area which would depend on the amount of laxity of your skin. In this area we can use items such as Bellafill to enhance the collagen in the area due to the downward turn of the lips and sagging in the area. I recommend you consult a physician who is experienced with procedure to help in eliminating these types of issues.

Answer: Botox for DAO Most people who have downturned corners of the mouth are candidates for Botox treatment to the DAO. It is still advisable to be evaluated first by a plastic surgeon who will see if your muscles in that region are hyperactive. If that is the case, then the Botox treatment is indicated. I hope this helps and good luck from New York City plastic
