A little Botox can make a big difference, even around the mouth!
These before-and-after photos demonstrate how strategically placed Botox can help soften a downturned smile.
The depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscles pull the corners of the mouth downward, sometimes creating a sad or unhappy expression even when you’re feeling perfectly fine!
By carefully relaxing these muscles with Botox, we can reduce that downward pull, allowing the corners of the mouth to rest in a more neutral, subtly lifted position.
The goal isn’t to change your smile. It’s to restore balance while preserving natural expression.
