As we age, the skin loses its elasticity, and the tissue around the corners of the mouth can begin to sag. For some men, the excess skin becomes so pronounced that it affects their facial expression and makes them look more tired or serious than they actually feel.
During the procedure, the excess skin around the corners of the mouth is removed, with a focus on achieving a natural-looking result. The goal is not to change your face, but to give you a fresher and more harmonious appearance while preserving your masculine facial features.
During the initial consultation, the specialist will assess whether treatment is the right option for you, and you will receive a personalized plan based on your wishes and circumstances.
During the initial consultation, the specialist will discuss your wishes and assess the quality and elasticity of your skin, as well as the amount of excess skin around the corners of your mouth. You will receive information about the surgery, expected results, and the healing process so that you can make an informed decision.
As a general rule, there should be at least one week between the preoperative examination and the surgery if the procedure is performed for cosmetic reasons.
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and takes about 30 minutes. If necessary, the local anesthesia can be supplemented with a mild sedative.
The surgeon removes the excess skin along the corner of the mouth and positions the incision so that the scar is as inconspicuous as possible. The skin is then closed with fine stitches, which promote proper healing.
After the procedure, you can usually go home the same day. It’s normal to experience slight swelling and discoloration around the surgical site during the first few days.
The stitches are typically removed after about a week, and most people can return to their normal daily activities shortly thereafter. You will receive instructions on wound care and how to achieve the best possible scar.
