What is the treatment?
The Downward Smile treatment uses anti-wrinkle injections to target the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscles, which are responsible for pulling the corners of the mouth down. This simple injectable technique helps rebalance facial expression, giving a more uplifted, pleasant look.
Who is it for?
Perfect for individuals who feel their neutral or resting expression appears sad, tired, or unfriendly—especially when the corners of the mouth naturally turn downward with age or facial structure.
How it works:
A small amount of muscle-relaxing product is injected into the DAO muscles on either side of the mouth. This reduces the downward pull, allowing the corners of the lips to lift slightly—without affecting your ability to speak, smile, or eat.
Expected results:
Subtle lifting effect visible within 3–5 days, with full results in up to two weeks. The refreshed appearance typically lasts 3–4 months, depending on lifestyle and muscle activity.
