How are marionette folds treated with dermal filler?
Marionette folds are the grooves that extend down and outwards from the corners of the mouth towards the jawline. They are a common sign of ageing, and one of the most frequent reasons people consider cosmetic treatments.
Marionette folds develop for two reasons. The first is due to a loss of deep bone and fatty tissue structure beneath the skin. The skin of the lower cheeks then begins to sag down and forward, collapsing over the top of the more rigid chin skin. This causes a grooves in the skin known as melomental folds (or marionette lines) to become apparent.
We can treating marionette folds with dermal fillers. We target the underlying structural layers of the lower face to restore deep support to the skin, and the fold itself. This combination approach achieves the most natural result.
The benefits of marionette fold filler include:
- Quick, convenient and no downtime treatment
- Immediate, long-lasting result
- Achieves a natural yet noticeable improvement in the appearance of your marionette lines.
For those with heavy or severe marionette folds, dermal filler will only achieve a partial improvement. If you want a more pronounced result, then the sagging skin must be addressed. This requires thread lifting, or a facelift. These reposition the sagging skin and fat, taking the heaviness away from the fold.
Downturned Mouth Filler for Marionette Folds with Cosmetic Connection
Downturned Mouth Filler, also known as Marionette Line Filler is becoming a popular treatment for facial ageing. It targets the deep grooves that extend from your mouth corners to jawline.
The name of these skin folds are melomental grooves, but we often refer to them as Marionette lines and folds. Marionette folds give your lower face a heavy look, and contribute to downturned mouth corners. This gives a glum, unhappy appearance.
These folds result from sagging skin and a loss of facial structure. Smoking, UV, and genetic factors accelerate their development.
At Cosmetic Connection, we treat marionette folds with dermal fillers to the corners of your mouth. This softens the folds and lifts your mouth corners. Dermal filler is a gel made of hyaluronic acid. This compound occurs naturally in your skin.
Placing dermal filler in your mouth corners adds support, and softens the marionette fold. This gives your lower face to look smooth, more youthful and rejuvenated.
We use either needles or a cannula to treat your marionette hollows. Hyaluronic acid dermal filler to this area reduces wrinkles and folds, and supports sagging mouth corners. Volumising your marionette hollows and mouth corners restores structure. This gives a lifted, more youthful appearance.
Sometimes we also use muscle relaxing injections to the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscle. DAO injections stop the muscle pulling your mouth corners down. Combining this with mouth corner filler gets a more pronounced result.
