Ever noticed those pesky vertical lines forming around your mouth? Those aren’t wrinkles from laughing too hard โ they’re often called smokers’ lines, and they can appear even if you’ve never touched a cigarette! Age, sun exposure, and repetitive facial movements can all contribute to their formation, leaving you with a less-than-thrilled “downward dog” expression. But fear not, fellow glow-getters! Glow Theory has the secret weapon to smooth those lines and restore your youthful radiance: Botox for smokers’ lines.
Unveiling the Villain: The Depressor Anguli Oris Muscle
Behind those pesky lines lurks a tiny muscle villain called the Depressor Anguli Oris (DAO). As we age or make certain facial expressions, the DAO can become overactive, pulling the corners of your mouth downwards and creating those unwelcome creases.
Botox to the Rescue: A Precise Strike Against Creases
Think of Botox as a precision strike against the DAO. Tiny, strategic injections of Botox temporarily relax the muscle, gently lifting the corners of your mouth and smoothing out those lines. It’s like a mini facelift in a syringe, with minimal downtime and zero downtime drama!
