Marionette lines are vertical skin folds or wrinkles between lower lip commissures (corner of lips) and either side of the chin. When they turn into deeper creases. Marionette Lines and Wrinkles are due to the natural ageing process. They often occur with other features of age including nasolabial folds (nose to mouth lines) and smile lines.
Marionette lines can contribute to a sad appearance due to down turned mouth. Dermal filler injections result in a revitalised and more approachable look. Treating this area offers support and structure to the lower face and can also greatly improve the sad look.
