    Treatment info

    Treatment objectives

    Our comprehensive consultations allow you to explore non-surgical treatments for marionette lines that may help with:

    • Reducing the depth and prominence of the lines running from the corners of the mouth to the chin.
    • Counteracting the appearance of sagging and ageing in the lower face.
    • Preventing the development of deeper marionette lines.

    Cosmetic treatments are generally considered safe, but may be associated with side effects in certain cases.

    Suitability

    An important part of your consultation is determining whether treatments for marionette lines are appropriate for you.

    Suitable candidates typically:

    • Have realistic expectations about the results, risks, and limitations.
    • Prefer natural-looking refinements without surgery.

    Once suitability is determined, we personalise each plan to your individual goals. To find out if treatments for marionette lines are right for you, book a consultation with our experienced clinicians.

    Preparation

    For the best treatment experience and to help minimise side effects, please follow these general preparation guidelines:

    • Ensure your skin is free of all makeup immediately before your appointment.
    • Avoid consuming alcohol for at least 24 hours prior to your appointment to reduce the risk of bruising.
    • To avoid feeling lightheaded, we recommend drinking plenty of water and having a light meal before your appointment.

    Aftercare

    After treatment, follow these general steps to support healing:

    • Avoid alcohol, smoking and intense exercise for 24 hours.
    • Gently apply a wrapped cold pack to the treated areas to minimise swelling and bruising for 20 minutes every hour.
    • Refrain from applying pressure to the treated areas until healed.

    Your clinician may recommend additional aftercare measures, which will be explained to you during your consultation.

    Results

    Results from non-surgical treatment for marionette lines are usually visible shortly after the procedure. The changes you notice will depend on your personalised plan, but we always aim to align outcomes with your preferences, expectations, and goals.

    The longevity of your results depends on the treatment method, and factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and metabolism.

    Over time, changes gradually fade as the treatment is absorbed by the body. To maintain your results, repeat treatments may be required, and can be discussed as an option during your consultation.

      Marionette lines, are the folds of skin that extend from your mouth corners to your jawline.
