Lip Lines or Smokers Lines
Why do I look sad — even when I’m not?
A downturned smile can make you appear tired, upset, or less approachable, even when you’re feeling your best. This is often caused by overactive muscles pulling the corners of the mouth downward over time.
If you're noticing your resting expression looks less cheerful than it feels, a simple tweak could help lift your confidence — and your smile.
How Botox Can Help with a Downturned Smile?
Botulinum toxin is used to gently relax the depressor anguli oris muscles — the ones responsible for pulling the corners of the mouth downward.
By reducing this downward pull, the mouth takes on a more neutral or subtly lifted position, restoring balance to your facial expression.
Results are natural and subtle, helping you look more refreshed and content without altering your features.
