The lines that extend from the corners of the mouth down toward the jawline are known as marionette lines (clinically referred to as mentolabial folds). When these lines deepen due to natural ageing or external factors such as UV damage, they can create a stern or displeased appearance.

Targeted hyaluronic acid treatments can naturally soften these lines, and muscle relaxants may also be used when appropriate. During your personal consultation, our experts will determine which treatment is best suited to your needs.

Anatomy of the mouth folds

Marionette lines are often colloquially referred to as Merkel lines. They develop with age due to overactivity of the depressor anguli oris (DAO) muscle. The resulting mouth wrinkles extend from the downward-turned corners of the mouth to the lower jawline. These wrinkles vary in severity. The first discreet visual signs of a marionette line are a depression below the corner of the mouth and a slightly drooping mouth corner. With age, collagen in the skin decreases, and the wrinkle becomes longer and deeper. At the same time, the lips become thinner, and the cheeks droop.

Onset of action

The results of hyaluronic acid treatment are immediately visible. When treating the chin, some swelling afterward is normal. You should cool yourself well and avoid physical activity on the day to allow the swelling to subside quickly.

If a muscle relaxant is used for treatment, it only takes about 5 to 10 days for the full effect to occur.
