Corner Lip Lift vs Deep Plane Facelift. Is a Deep-Plane Facelift the Answer for Droopy Corners? Fixing droopy mouth corners isn’t always as simple as a corner lift, because two factors come into play:

1. The position of the corners⁠
2. The marionette lines and fullness from cheek descent⁠⁠

As we age, cheeks lose their position, creating heaviness that pulls the corners downward. If you only fix the corners, the weight from the cheeks and jowls can still drag things down. That’s where a deep-plane facelift might shine, it lifts laterally, reducing heaviness and creating balance.
