Thank you for your question and photo. This concern can be addressed with some different treatments. A neuromodulator like Botox targets the overactive muscles that lead to the downturned mouth corners, raising them upward. Results will last 3-4 months for most patients. Filler can also be used, either alone or in combination with the neuromodulator. Finally, a surgical lift may also be an option to achieve a longer-lasting result. I encourage you to meet with an experienced, board-certified facial plastic surgeon who can assess you in person and create a customized treatment plan based on your precise concerns and goals.
A downturned smile or permanent frown can be improved with a combination approach, including neuromodulators (such as Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau), injectable fillers, and radiofrequency skin tightening treatments such as Thermage or Venus Legacy. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced cosmetic dermatologist to develop a treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer.
Hi @elena.ortiz! I recommend getting 2 units of Botox into the DAO muscle. The injections stop the DAO muscle pulling down the corners of the mouth. Treatment will cause the corners of the mouth to be slightly lifted, giving the mouth a more relaxed, happy, youthful and pleasing appearance.
Jowls can be addressed many different ways. Skin tightening can help and so can filler or even a combination of the two. If it is caused by tight muscles in the jaw, then even Botox or Dysport can make a difference.
Hi, droopy corner of the mouth is an easy fix. One way is to use Botulinum toxin to relax the muscles that pull down the corner of the mouth. This treatment lasts between 3-4 months. Another option is to use fillers to push up the corners of the mouth. The results can last anywhere from 6 months to 5 years depending on which product is used.
Droopy mouth corners that give you that RBF look can easily be corrected with either fillers or a procedure called corner lip lift. Fillers will need to be refreshed every 6 months to a year, whereas the corner list will last longer. Both are great solutions and I recommend speaking meet with a plastic surgeon who specializes in both of procedures to determine what's best for you.
Yes, you can definitely get filler while on antibiotics. Other medications like NSAIDS (asprin, ibuprofen, naproxin) can cause bruising, but does not mean you can't get them. In fact in some cases we prescribe anti-viral and anti-biotics ahead of time depending on your own health history.
In office peels, lasers, and fillers will help. at home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (emerageskin roller with anteage MD ampules) should be started now. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles. A surgical option to re...
Hi @Murphy16! Thank you for your sending your photos. You would be a great candidate for tear trough fillers. Restylane and Belotero work great. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid...
