What are Marionette Lines?
Marionette Lines stretch from the corner of your mouth to your chin. In part, they are due to muscle pull from smiling, which is never a bad thing really! Marionette Lines tend to become more prominent with age and form hollows, because we lose volume and support in the lower face.
How are Marionette Lines treated?
Dr. Jodie treats Marionette Lines with Dermal Filler injections to create a more refreshed, less lined appearance. Her approach is to treat the lines themselves and refill the underlying hollows. Treatment may also involve revolumising all areas of the lower face that have become deflated, from the ear to the chin, to smooth out the entire lower face. The outcome is a more natural look that avoids bulking the Marionette area.
