Marionette lines, the lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin, can deepen as the skin loses elasticity and give your face a tired appearance. A filler treatment can effectively soften these lines, making your face look fresher and more youthful. This safe and effective treatment offers a subtle improvement and can be combined with Botox for a more complete approach if desired.
What are marionette lines and what causes them?
Marionette lines are the lines that run from the corners of the mouth down to the chin, and they can give the face a sad or tired expression. As these lines deepen, the corners of the mouth may appear to droop, which can sometimes give the wrong impression of how you feel. This can be frustrating, especially when you actually feel energetic and cheerful on the inside.
Marionette lines are caused by a combination of natural skin ageing, in which the skin gradually loses elasticity and firmness, and external factors such as sun damage and smoking. Fortunately, there are effective solutions available to soften these lines and refresh your appearance.
Reducing marionette lines with fillers
Marionette lines can be effectively reduced with hyaluronic acid fillers. By restoring lost volume in the skin, the lines become less deep or disappear completely. The fillers are carefully injected to soften the folds and subtly lift the corners of the mouth. This creates a fresh and youthful look while preserving your natural facial contours.
Because every face is different, we offer free, honest advice to determine the best treatment for you together. If desired, the filler treatment can be complemented with Botox for drooping mouth corners, which can be a great way to further soften and balance your appearance.
What we use to treat marionette lines
To reduce marionette lines, we use fillers based on hyaluronic acid, a substance that occurs naturally in the body and is safely broken down over time. In addition to restoring volume, hyaluronic acid also helps hydrate the skin, giving it a healthier and more youthful look. Your health and safety are our top priority, which is why we only use high-quality, FDA-approved fillers.
Our doctors specialise in the precise and personalised application of fillers, so the result looks natural and suits your face perfectly. In addition, every filler we use contains Lidocaine, a local anaesthetic. This ensures the marionette lines treatment is as comfortable and painless as possible. We understand that comfort matters, and we do everything we can to make sure you feel relaxed and confident throughout your visit to Amsterdam Skin Clinic.
Book a free consultationHow does the treatment work?
With a marionette lines treatment, we ensure a careful and safe process that is fully tailored to your wishes. Here you can read how the treatment works at Amsterdam Skin Clinic:
Free consultation
The treatment starts with a personal, no-obligation consultation in which you discuss your wishes with the doctor. During this consultation, the doctor assesses your face and gives honest advice about the options and the expected result. Your safety and satisfaction are our top priority.
Preparing for the treatment
After the consultation, in which you discuss your wishes and expectations, you can decide whether or not to proceed with the marionette lines treatment. If you decide to go ahead, the treatment area is cleansed and prepared. The doctor then carefully marks the areas where the filler will be placed, so the injections can be performed with precision and optimal effectiveness.
Injecting the marionette lines filler
Using a cannula, the filler is strategically injected into the marionette lines. This fills the folds and restores lost volume. This step is virtually painless thanks to the Lidocaine contained in the filler.
Massaging and distributing the filler
After the injections, the filler is gently massaged to ensure an even distribution. This helps create a natural, smooth transition in the treated area.
What to do after the marionette lines treatment?
To achieve the best result after your marionette lines treatment, we recommend following this aftercare advice:
- Do not lie flat for the first 2 hours after the treatment.
- Do not smoke, exercise or drink alcohol for 24 hours.
- Avoid the sun and sunbeds for 2 weeks.
- During these 2 weeks, we recommend not visiting a sauna, spa or hammam.
- Also avoid facial treatments, laser treatments or chemical peels during this period.

The result of marionette lines fillers
The result of a marionette lines filler treatment is often visible immediately: deep lines can be softened or become less noticeable, which can give your face a fresher and more youthful appearance. In addition, the treatment can help to subtly lift the corners of the mouth, giving you a softer and friendlier look.
Although the effect is noticeable straight away, the final result settles within a few days once any swelling has subsided. The fillers remain effective for an average of 6 to 12 months, depending on factors such as your skin type, lifestyle and the amount of filler used. With regular maintenance treatments, your face will continue to look radiant and balanced for longer.

A marionette lines filler treatment can be combined with other cosmetic treatments for a more complete result. For example, you can opt for crow’s feet botox to soften fine lines around the eyes, or jawline fillers to further define the contours of your face.

During a consultation, we are happy to discuss which treatments best suit your wishes and goals.
How much filler is needed to treat marionette lines?
The amount of filler needed to reduce marionette lines varies from person to person. In most cases, 1 to 2 ml is enough to achieve a visible effect. During a consultation, the doctor assesses the depth of the lines and discusses with you how much filler is needed to achieve a natural and balanced result.
Did you know?
Did you know that fillers, in addition to their well-known cosmetic applications, are also used for medical purposes? They are used to correct scars, asymmetries, and even joint pain. Hyaluronic acid, a commonly used type of filler, can also be used to lubricate joints in certain forms of arthritis. This demonstrates that these versatile substances not only serve to enhance appearance but also improve the quality of life for people with medical conditions.
