What are marionette lines?Updated 2 years ago
From the corner of the mouth they are the long vertical wrinkles that traverse from the corners of the lips to the chin. The name is derived from Marionette puppets that have faces with long vertical creases. These creases could give a grim or sad look to the face. These lines occur with age, smoking and genetics and can progress to form jowls later on. It is possible to lift these corners with dermal filler by adding volume and anchoring the corners higher up.
