Marionette Lines

Marionette Lines

Marionette lines, also known as puppet lines or oral commissure lines, are the vertical lines that run from the corners of the mouth downward towards the chin. They can give the appearance of a downturned or sad expression and are often associated with the natural ageing process.

 

Why Do Marionette Lines Occur?

  • Ageing and Loss of Skin Elasticity: As we age, the skin loses its elasticity and becomes thinner, leading to a loss of volume and firmness. This, combined with repetitive facial movements and the effects of gravity, can cause the formation of marionette lines over time.
  • Volume Loss and Fat Pad Descent: The natural ageing process can result in a loss of fat volume and a downward descent of fat pads in the face. This contributes to the sagging and deepening of the marionette lines.
