Why do the corners of the mouth droop?

✔ When the muscles around the mouth are weak from birth ✔ When the muscles sag due to aging and gravity ✔ When the muscles become stiff because you don’t smile often ✔ When the muscles that pull the mouth corners downward are overdeveloped

Three exercises to lift the corners of your mouth!

1️ Corner lift exercise

Pull diagonally upward from the ends of the lips toward the cheekbones

Repeat 10 times

✅ Points

✔ For those whose mouth corners don’t lift well, activating them like this comes first!

✔ Focus the effort on the muscles at the corners of the mouth, not below the cheekbones or on the cheeks

🔹 Things to be careful about when exercising the mouth corners!

🚫 Wrong exercises for the mouth corners can actually make them droop more!

✔ Never clench your mouth or bite down tightly!

✔ Frequently making expressions that pull the mouth corners downward can deepen marionette lines!

✔ Using the wrong muscles can make the cheeks tense and make the cheekbones stand out even more!

👉 When exercising, focus only on the mouth corners, and relax the lips and cheeks!

✅ What is corner-of-the-mouth Botox?

It is a treatment that helps the corners of your mouth rise naturally by relaxing the strength of the muscle that pulls them downward (the lower facial muscles).

💡 Combining Botox + mouth-corner exercises maximizes the effect!

✔ If the muscles are overdeveloped, Botox can relax their strength,

✔ and if you combine it with exercise, you can maintain naturally lifted mouth corners!
