I have had dysport in corners of mouth as well as above the lip to provide a lift and like the aesthetics of it but lost ability to pucker or suck out of a straw. Became difficult to eat and drink as a result. What do you recommend?
Answer: DYSPORT NJ The short answer is that we are able to raise the corners of the mouth with Botox or Dysport by small injections of the product to the depressor anguli oris muscles on the right and left sides. This muscle pulls the corners of the mouth down (simulating a frown); therefore, Botox or Dysport to the muscles will naturally lift the corners of the mouth. Puckering should be maintained because the muscle that controls puckering (orbicularis oris muscle) is not treated.Best of luck!

Answer: Corners of the Mouth Thank you for your question! Yes, both Dysport and Botox can be used to help elevate the corners of the mouth. When injected into the depressor muscles of the lips, it will help to elevate the corners. I would consult with a board certified and expert injector for evaluation. As you have mentioned, one of the possible side results is difficulty with puckering. However, with appropriate placement of the neuromodulator, this should not happen. I hope that this helps!-David Gilpin

Answer: Pucker? Thank you. Yes, you can inject into the depressor muscle at the corner of the mouth and this should not affect the ability to pucker your lips. I like to use a combination of Dysport or Botox and a dermal filler to get best results on the corner of the mouth. Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Pucker Up--Botox for lip corners If you forgo the Botox injection above the mouth, it won't take away your ability to pucker. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist to go over your desired results. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Elevation of the mouth corners Elevation of the mouth corners can be accomplished with Dysport or other neuromodulators. This should not effect the ability to pucker. Sometimes these products are used for vertical lip lines or to evert the lip which can affect the ability to pucker or use a straw. Mouth corners may also benefit from a small amount of filler to make a bigger difference. Best of luck.
