Causes of Marionette Lines
- The Marionette lines start at the corners of the mouth and extend downwards towards the chin.
- As the body ages, its supply of collagen gradually breaks down, which diminishes facial volume and elasticity.
- This loss of elasticity and volume makes facial wrinkles and folds appear more prominent.
What makes marionette lines worse?
- As early as your 20s, your skin starts losing elasticity as well as hydration, which increases your risk for fine lines and wrinkles.
- Long-term sun exposure, stress, and poor nutrition may also contribute to facial wrinkles by prematurely breaking down collagen and elastin.
- Anti-aging injectables offers a non-surgical solution to restore a more youthful appearance.
- It is useful for relaxing the muscles that pull down the corners of the mouth, while dermal fillers help to erase marionette lines.
- By targeting the underlying muscle contractions that contribute to the formation of marionette lines, it can help soften their appearance and create smoother skin.
- The effects of treatment typically last for about three to four months.
