Marionette pleat

Effectively reduce marionette lines

Marionette lines are wrinkles that can form between the corners of the mouth and the chin. The wrinkles are caused by the sagging of the skin in the upper third of the face. The main reason for the formation of marionette lines is the natural ageing process, as the skin loses volume and elasticity over time, which can lead to wrinkles. Marionette lines can lead to a sad or tired appearance and make the face look older. Many of those affected find this disturbing as it changes their appearance.

The treatment

The procedure is carried out in the clinic and, if necessary, with the help of an anaesthetic cream. First, the treating specialist carefully cleanses the affected area and then injects the hyaluronic acid into the deeper layers of the skin along the marionette lines. The amount of substance injected varies depending on the extent of the wrinkles and individual needs.
The treatment is generally painless and only takes a few minutes. After the injection, there may be slight swelling, redness or bruising, but these usually subside quickly. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately, as no prolonged recovery time is required.
The results of marionette lines injections are usually visible immediately and can last from several months to a year, depending on the hyaluronic acid used and the patient's individual metabolism. In order to maintain the results, a regular top-up treatment is usually required.
