Marionette lines, the lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin, are one of the most noticeable signs of aging. They can make the face look sad or downturned even when you’re not feeling it. Luckily dermal fillers are a quick, non surgical solution to reduce the appearance of marionette lines and get back to balance and a more youthful face. Juvederm, Restylane and Radiesse are popular fillers that can target marionette lines and give immediate results with minimal downtime.
Marionette line fillers are injectable treatments that smooth and fill the deep lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin. The most common fillers for this area are hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite, both are natural substances in the body. Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains moisture, adds volume to the skin and calcium hydroxylapatite stimulates collagen production, improves skin texture over time. By injecting these fillers into the marionette lines, the wrinkles are reduced and the corners of the mouth are lifted, you look more refreshed and youthful. The procedure is minimally invasive, immediate results and no downtime.

The number of syringes needed for marionette line treatment depends on the depth of the lines and the result you want. Generally 1-2 syringes is enough to see a noticeable difference. For deeper lines more syringes may be needed to get the optimal result. It’s always better to start conservative and add more filler if needed during follow up appointments.

A topical numbing cream can also be applied before the treatment to make it more comfortable. Some temporary swelling, redness or bruising may occur after the treatment but these side effects usually go away within a few days.
