One of the most commonly overlooked areas in neurotoxin treatments is the DAO (Depressor Anguli Oris).
These muscles pull the corners of the mouth downward. Over time, this contributes to:
- A sad or fatigued appearance
- Downturned mouth corners
- Early jowl formation
By relaxing the DAO, we reduce this downward pull, allowing the face to appear more lifted and refreshed.
Preventing Jowls Before They Start
Jowling doesn’t happen overnight—it develops gradually due to repeated muscle movement, volume loss, and skin laxity.
Treating the DAO early is a proactive way to slow this process. When combined with other lower face treatments as part of a full-face plan, patients can maintain better jawline definition over time.
Why Consistency Matters
Neurotoxins are most effective when performed on a consistent schedule. Waiting too long between treatments allows full muscle movement to return, which can accelerate wrinkle formation and structural changes.
With True Tox, we create a customized treatment plan and maintain it regularly to:
- Preserve results
- Prevent progression of aging
- Optimize long-term outcomes
A Smarter Approach to Aging
True Tox isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing it right. By treating the full face and staying consistent, patients achieve softer, more natural results that evolve with them over time.
