Hi there! I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. DAO refers to the muscle that pulls down the corners of the mouth. Weakening this muscle with Botox can lift the corners of the mouth, improve facial balance, and soften the marionette lines. Unfortunately, Botox does not tighten loose skin.
Hi, thank you for your question! DAO botox can help with lifting the corners of the mouth. This will not help with lower face laxity. I would recommend reaching out to a certified injector for an in person consultation.
DAO Botox (depressor anguili oris muscle Botox) treatment allows the individual NOT pull down the corners of them mouth, making them look, unhappy or angry. It also helps bring the corners of the mouth upward until the Botox wears off. It does not help by pulling tissues which are droopy already. But it is an excellent procedure in patients who needed and that’s usually women over 35 women who have multiple children. I hope this helps and best of luck from New York City Plastic Surgery.
