Skip to content Frowning lips, also known as downturned lips, can appear sad or dissatisfied even when you’re at your happiest. This condition occurs due to aging, loss of skin elasticity, or muscle tension pulling the corners of the mouth downward. At Viva Medspa & Wellness, we offer advanced treatments to target frowning lips, lift the corners of the mouth, and give you a more natural, confident smile.
Various (depending on the specific treatment chosen)
30-60 minutes (varies by treatment)
Minimal to moderate downtime (treatment-dependent)
Lip enhancement treatments add volume and shape to the lips, lifting the corners of the mouth to counteract a frowning appearance. This provides a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing look.
Neuromodulators relax the muscles responsible for pulling the lips downward. By targeting these muscles, Botox or Dysport can lift the corners of the mouth, reducing the appearance of frown lines.
Dermal fillers, especially those containing hyaluronic acid, add volume and smooth out fine lines around the mouth. They lift the lips and create a more youthful, upturned appearance, softening the look of frown lips.
These treatments can be used separately or in combination to effectively treat frown lips, offering a more rejuvenated and refreshed appearance. Always consult with a professional to determine the best option for your goals.
During your consultation, we will evaluate your facial structure and discuss your goals to create an individualized treatment plan. You may be asked to avoid certain skincare products or medications before your session.
The procedure typically lasts 30-60 minutes, depending on the treatment chosen. Some medicines may cause mild discomfort, but we strive to ensure your comfort.
Recovery time varies depending on the treatment, but most patients experience minimal downtime. You may notice slight redness or swelling, which typically subsides within a few days. We advise protecting your skin from the sun and following post-treatment care instructions.
The longevity of your results depends on the treatment method. Botox® results generally last 3-4 months, while fillers and laser therapy may offer longer-lasting improvements. Regular maintenance treatments can help prolong the results and uplift your smile.
Most patients see improvements within a few days to a week after treatment. With consistent care and maintenance, results can last for several months, helping you maintain a natural, lifted smile.
Treatments such as Botox® relax the muscles that cause the lips to turn downward, while fillers restore lost volume, and laser therapy tightens the surrounding skin. Together, they help lift and rejuvenate the lips.
Most treatments cause minimal discomfort. Depending on the procedure, numbing creams or other comfort measures can ensure a comfortable experience.
Treatment times vary but typically last between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the procedure and areas treated.
Botox® and filler results may be noticeable within a few days to a week, while laser treatments may take slightly longer. Full results will become more apparent as the skin heals and renews.
Results can last anywhere from 3-4 months with Botox® to over a year with dermal fillers and laser therapy. Regular maintenance treatments help sustain the effects.
Side effects are normally mild and may include temporary redness, swelling, or slight bruising, which typically subside within a few days. We will go over any possible risks during your consultation.
