Often appearing on the face around the areas of the mouth and chin, marionette lines are caused by a decrease in tension within the supporting ligaments of the mid and lower face. By applying high quality dermal fillers in the right places, volume beneath the skin can be restored.
Skin looks tighter and more youthful using dermal fillers, as the restored volume reduces the visibility of various lines and wrinkles. By understanding the reasons why marionette lines appear, Dr Owen is able to target specific problem areas to restore a more youthful and radiant appearance.
By visiting our London clinic for dermal filler treatment, you are taking the first step to regaining confidence in your appearance. A personalised treatment plan is made for each client, ensuring that your specific wants and needs are met with marionette line filler treatment.
Dr Owen is a highly-trained clinician, specialising in aesthetic treatment. Over 20 years of experience as a medical professional have led him to become a trusted practitioner, and with successful completion of the Aesthetic Intelligence Fellowship, you can be sure that your treatment will be a success. Dr Owen also has a Master’s Degree in aesthetic injectable treatments, and offers a full detailed consultation prior to any treatment taking place.
Marionette lines filler treatment may also be used in conjunction with other procedures such as Morpheus8. By tailoring each procedure to meet the specific requirements of each person, Dr Owen is able to ensure that the results are as best as they possibly can be. Botulinum toxin may also be used to relax the DAO muscle (Depressor Anguli Oris), giving a slight adjustment to the natural facial expression.
Depending on the appearance of the lips, marionette line treatment may also be combined with a lip augmentation procedure, using dermal fillers such as Juvederm, Restylane, Teoxane and Belotero.

This will largely depend on the individual, as we price our treatments on how much dermal filler is required to produce the desired look. Typically, we will only require 1-2 ml of dermal filler for marionette line treatment. For more information, please take a look at our price list.
Dermal fillers can last around 12 months, but this figure tends to vary for each client. The results of the treatment are boosted by our use of only the best filler products such as Juvederm Voluma, Restylane, Belotero and the Teoxane RHA family.
Dr Owen uses a very fine needle to apply dermal fillers, which means that the discomfort experienced during and following surgery is minimised. Our dermal fillers are also pre-mixed with local anaesthetic, and great care is given to apply cooling and vibrations to further reduce any discomfort.
Side effects following marionette line treatments are usually minimal, with common experiences including mild swelling and redness around the injection site. Any chance of serious complications is greatly reduced with careful technique, expert knowledge and frequently blunt-tip microcannula. In the event of any serious complications developing, the hyaluronic acid fillers contain an enzyme which can break up the dermal filler to reverse the effects of any blood vessel blockages.
We recommend that you do not partake in any intense physical activity for the first 24-48 hours following surgery. We also advise that you avoid air travel during this time period, and that you do not apply makeup for the first 12 hours after treatment.
