Raising hanging corners of the mouth

A drooping corner of the mouth gives the face an unattractive appearance. It makes you look sceptical and grim and is often accompanied by the unsightly marionette line that runs from the corner of the mouth towards the chin.
There are various ways to lift the corner of the mouth. These include, for example, tightening thread lifts and surgical procedures to permanently lift the corners of the mouth.

As part of the ageing process, tissue sinks downwards due to gravity. On the face, this particularly affects the eyebrows and upper eyelids, but the volume of the cheeks also moves downwards and forms the so-called nasolabial fold between the nose and upper lip. Further to the side, tissue moves towards the chin and causes the marionette wrinkle between the corner of the mouth and the chin. The corner of the mouth itself can also move downwards, giving the mouth a grim and sceptical expression.
In plastic surgery, there are various ways to correct drooping corners of the mouth. The simplest solution is to lift the corner of the mouth using a thread inserted into the skin. This technique is also known as a thread lift or thread lift. As many patients want a permanent solution, we also offer a surgical option for lifting the corners of the mouth at the Klinik am Rosengarten practice.
