Marionette lines are wrinkles that can develop between the corner of the mouth and the chin when production of collagen reduces as part of the natural aging process. If these wrinkles are particularly defined, this can lead to an “unfriendly” facial expression. These lines can easily be reduced with dermal fillers, which re-introduce lost volume into the areas. M1 Med Beauty ensures the best results by only using the finest products from renowned manufacturers like Juvéderm®, Restylane®, Belotero® and Yvoire®. Marionette wrinkle fillers start at £149 for 1ml depending on the product used.

As we age, the production of collagen in our skin begins to slow down and skin elasticity reduces. This causes our skin to lose volume and sag, particularly in the lower third of the face and around the mouth. This causes the development of creases such as marionette lines or lip lines, which are lines that form between the outer corners of our mouth and along our chin.

Dermal filler injections are a particularly low-risk and non-surgical option to tackle the signs of ageing and get rid of deep wrinkles around the mouth. Following your consultation, our M1 doctors will inject the mouth area with hyaluronic acid fillers from manufacturers like Juvederm® around the mouth and chin, introducing volume into the sagging skin. Procedures with fillers generally take between 15 and 30 minutes and results can be seen for up to 6 months.

Marionette lines are often treated with other wrinkles including nasolabial folds (also known as smile lines and which form from the nose to the mouth), frown lines, and forehead lines.

It is highly-important that cosmetic procedures with hyaluronic acid are administered by qualified doctors to ensure the best results with minimal side effects.
