Observing changes in our facial expression that do not reflect our true emotions can be disheartening. If you’ve noticed your mouth shape conveying sadness or anger, or if the corners of your mouth have gradually drooped over time, giving off an aged appearance or seeming to pull down when you speak, know that there are effective treatments available. Urban Body Aesthetics specialises in rejuvenating treatments designed to uplift the corners of the mouth, accurately reflecting your inner joy and vitality.
Transforming Expressions: The Power of Uplifting the Mouth
A downturned mouth can significantly affect how we perceive ourselves and how others perceive us. It can unintentionally convey a range of negative emotions, from sadness to disapproval. Addressing this with targeted treatments can have profound benefits:
– Youthful Lower Face: Correcting the downturned corners of the mouth can take years off your appearance, restoring a more youthful and vibrant look to your lower face.
– Happier, More Approachable Expression: By lifting the corners of the mouth, treatments can help your face more accurately reflect positive emotions, making you appear more open and joyful.
– Boosted Self-Confidence: Feeling good about how you look significantly impacts your self-esteem. Treating a downturned mouth can give you the confidence to smile broadly, speak freely, and present your true self to the world.
What Is A Downturned Mouth?
The corner of the mouth is where the upper and lower lips meet. The line or indentations that we see in this area is commonly referred to as a downturned mouth.
What Causes A Downturned Mouth?
There are several causes of a downturned mouth:
Volume loss in the cheek and lower face. Lower face muscles (depressor angulis oris muscle) pulling the corner of the mouth down- these pull stronger as we get older due to fat loss on our face. Collagen loss from the skin causing the skin to lose its elasticity and sag.
What Treatments Are Available?
As these folds occur naturally with ageing, it is important to find out what’s caused them and build the correct foundations to achieve the most natural looking result. Every patient’s treatment plan will vary depending on their age and the severity of their folds. It often involves a subtle amount of cheek filler to lift the face and possibly filler into the folds itself or surrounding structures.
Anti-wrinkle injections can also help compliment dermal filler treatment to soften the downturned mouth especially when it is worsened by a strong lower face muscle contraction. This will be assessed and discussed during your consultation.

This was my first experience with a skin consultation and treatments. I really appreciated not being pressured into any procedures and I was given a wide range of options to choose from. I would definitely recommened.
