Both dermal fillers and Botox can flatten the corners of your lip and get rid of the down-turned mouth.

Yes. This is an excellent use of fillers. It can certainly erase any frown lines. I think you will be very happy with the results.

Lip augmentation can improve the down-going mouth corners when performed by a skillful injector.? Sometimes, additional procedures may be needed?as well either before or after lip augmentation?(Botox, other fillers).

We would not suggest that lip injections can help with the "mouth frown", but we use fillers to minimize the creases created at the corners of the mouth and Botox around the mouth to relax muscles that pull downward in this area. These two in combination help to minimize
the effects of a mouth frown. Choose an experienced practitioner as these techniques are more advanced.

Yes, Fillers can make the corners of your mouth turn up. You may want to try Botox first. With a very small amount and 3 tiny injections you may get the results you want without having to use fillers.
