How Anti-wrinkle Injections Can Improve Your Smile

Smiling is a universal language. When you see somebody smile, the reward centre in your brain is activated, which boosts your mood. The act of smiling is contagious and we feel compelled to reciprocate when someone flashes us a grin. Smiling generates the release of neuropeptides in the brain, which help fight stress symptoms. Yet despite it having so many benefits, many people dislike their smile and limit its presence. Anti-wrinkle Injections are often thought of as a treatment solely for the signs of ageing, but they can also improve your smile in many ways. North West Aesthetics has compiled a list of 4 treatments that are sure to put a smile on your face. 

4 Ways To Improve Your Smile

 

Create Fuller Lips Without Filler

 

Revealing more of the upper lip with Anti-wrinkle Injections is the perfect treatment for anyone with thin lips or a gummy smile. Precise injections target the vermilion border of the lip, which relaxes the orbicularis oris muscle that pulls the top lip down. The treatment causes the lip to ‘flip’, creating a natural-looking and fuller pout. Following this procedure, the upper lip elevates less, limiting the amount of gum showing when smiling. Two ways to improve your smile in one simple treatment!

 

Eliminate Smoker’s Lines

 

Creases that emanate from the lips are often called smoker’s lines due to their association with cigarette smoking. Although these lines may be more deep-set in smokers, everyone develops them with age. Targeted Anti-wrinkle Injections around the lip and mouth block signals from the nerves, causing the muscles to relax and smoker’s lines to appear reduced. 

 

Reverse A Downturned Mouth

 

One of the most popular ways to improve your smile is to treat a downturned mouth. If you appear sad or grumpy when your face is at rest, this is the treatment for you. The depressor anguli oris muscle in the lower face runs from the corners of the mouth to the chin and can cause the mouth to appear downtuned. Small amounts of injectable release the downward pull on the corners of the mouth, creating a more neutral or happy expression. 

 

Smooth A Bumpy Chin

 

Caused by an overactive mentalis muscle, the chin can appear dimpled or bumpy in texture. This can detract from your smile and make you feel self-conscious about your appearance. Anti-wrinkle Injections can improve your smile by eliminating the pebbled texture of the chin and boosting your confidence.
