Marionette Lines

Marionette Lines

What is Marionette Lines?

Marionette lines are facial wrinkles that form in the corners of the mouth and extend downward toward the jawline. They are commonly referred to as “sad lines” or “frown lines” and can make a person look older and more tired. Fortunately, there are several treatment options available to reduce the appearance of marionette lines. Dermal fillers are one of the most popular treatments for marionette lines. These fillers are injected into the skin and add volume to the lines, giving them a smoother, more youthful appearance. Popular fillers such as Juvederm and Restylane are commonly used, and results can last up to a year.

In some cases, a combination of both dermal fillers and Botox may be recommended. This approach can help create a more natural look.

What is Hyaluronic Acid Filler?

Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance in the human body and is responsible for maintaining the skin‘s volume and hydration.

When it comes to fillers, hyaluronic acid is the gold standard. As people age, their natural stores of hyaluronic acid diminish, leading to wrinkles and sagging skin. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be used to replace lost volume and hydration, resulting in a more youthful appearance.

What to expect?

Dr.Voss  will ask you about any medications you are taking, as well as any medical conditions you may have that couldinterfere with the procedure.

Depending on the area being treated, a series of injections may beneeded. The entire procedure usually takes less than 10-30 minutes.

What to avoid?

First and foremost, it’s important to give your skin some time to heal after HA filler. Immediately after the procedure, you should avoid any strenuous activities that could cause you to break out in a sweat. This includes exercise, hot showers or baths, and activities that might cause your face to become overly warm. You should also avoid touching or rubbing the area that was injected with filler. Doing so can disrupt the healing process and increase the risk of infection and migration. He will explain orally everything you should avoid after the treatment.

Frequentley asked Questions

What are Dermal Fillers?
Dermal fillers are injectable substances that are designed to replace lost volume in the face. These fillers are usually made of hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found in the body that helps keep skin hydrated and plump. They are used to add volume and smooth out wrinkles, fine lines, and other signs of aging.
How Long Do Dermal Fillers Last?
The amount of time dermal fillers last will depend on the type of filler used, as well as the area being treated. Generally, most fillers last between 6-18 months, although some may last up to two years.
Do Dermal Fillers Hurt?
Most patients report that dermal filler injections are relatively painless. However, few patients may experience some discomfort during the procedure due to their low pain tolerance. Dr.Voss will use a strong topical numbing cream, choosing the dermal fillers that is mixed with anesthetic agent to help reduce any discomfort. He is also known with his injection technique that makes the procedure almost painless.

Are there any alternatives to dermal fillers?
Yes, there are several alternatives to dermal fillers, including surgery, laser treatments, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels. However, these treatments may not be as non invasive or  provide the same results as dermal fillers.
Are Dermal Fillers Safe?
Yes, dermal fillers are generally considered safe when administered by a qualified professional. Because the fillers are made of natural materials, there is a low risk of adverse reactions. It’s important to always use a qualified professional when undergoing any kind of cosmetic treatment, and to follow aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results.
Are Dermal Fillers Permanent?
No, dermal fillers(Hyaluronic Acid) are not permanent. As the body absorbs the filler material, the effects of the treatment will gradually diminish over time. To maintain the desired results, patients may need to have touch-up treatments every 6-18 months.
