Why corners pull down
Strong depressor muscles can make the mouth look sad or tired even when you are not. Botox® relaxes those pull-down muscles so the corners can rest in a more neutral or slightly uplifted position.
How it works
Precise doses target the muscles that tug the corners downward. Balance with surrounding muscles matters; effect builds over 7–14 days.
Benefits
Subtle but meaningful for facial harmony—often combined with other treatments if volume loss also contributes.
