Marionette Lines

“Marionette lines” are the creases or wrinkles that develop from the corners of the mouth to the chin, creating a “marionette-like” appearance. These lines can become more pronounced with age, causing a sagging or drooping effect in the lower face.

 Marionette lines are typically caused by a combination of factors, including natural ageing, a decrease in collagen production, and repeated facial expressions, such as frowning or smiling. In some cases, the loss of volume in the cheeks and mid-face can also contribute to the appearance of marionette lines.

Treatment for marionette lines typically involves non-invasive procedures such as dermal fillers, which can restore volume to the cheeks and lift the skin around the mouth area, reducing the appearance of the lines.
