As we get older, gravity and collagen loss can cause the corners of our mouth\u2014also known as the oral commissures\u2014to pull downward. This can create a permanent frown or those pesky marionette lines, making us look a bit grumpy even on our best days.<\/p>\n<p data-ke-size=\"size16\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-size:22px; color:#a0522d; margin:30px 0 15px; padding-bottom:8px; border-bottom:2px solid #d2b48c;\"><strong>Why Do Our Mouth Corners Droop? \ud83e\udd14<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:15px;\">To be honest, it&#8217;s a completely natural part of aging.
