Lip Corner Filler in Myeongdong, Seoul

Slightly downturned corners make a resting face look unhappy. A tiny amount of filler under each corner props it up, for a softer, more pleasant expression without changing your smile.

Quick answer

Lip corner filler places a small amount of soft hyaluronic acid, usually 0.2–0.5 ml in total, just under and beside the mouth corners to support them and lift a downturned look. It is often combined with mouth corner Botox, which eases the downward muscle pull. Treatment takes about 15 minutes and results last about 6–12 months.

What can lip corner filler do?

The mouth corners rest on a small area of support. When it thins, the corners drop and short lines appear below them. A tiny amount of filler restores the support so the corners sit level, which changes the resting expression more than the smile.

Who is it for?

  • Downturned corners that look sad or stern at rest.
  • Small vertical lines just below the corners.
  • Longer lines down to the chin need marionette filler.
