Say goodbye to marionette lines and hello to confidence with Freyja Medical.
What Causes Marionette Lines?
Marionette lines, the vertical creases framing the mouth, are primarily attributed to aging. This process involves the natural loss of collagen and elastin in the skin.
These lines are particularly pronounced due to the downward pull of facial muscles over time, leading to a sagging appearance around the mouth area.
These lines are a common occurrence as we age, influenced by factors such as:
-
Sun exposure
-
Smoking
-
Repetitive facial expressions
-
Poor skincare habits
-
Environmental pollutants
-
Genetics
-
Hormonal changes

Aesthetic Consultation
At Freyja Medical, our aesthetic consultations for marionette lines are led by our expert practitioners who tailor personalised treatment plans to address your specific concerns.
We understand that every individual is unique, so we take the time to listen to your needs and goals before recommending the most suitable options.
Whether you’re considering dermal fillers, Sculptra or a thread lift, we’re here to guide you through the process, ensuring you feel informed and confident in your choices.
Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers offer an effective solution for reducing marionette lines, those lines from the mouth corners to chin.
By injecting hyaluronic acid or other substances, fillers restore lost volume and smooth out wrinkles, providing immediate, natural-looking results with minimal downtime.
Trust Freyja Medical for expertly tailored treatments that enhance your facial harmony.
Sculptra
Sculptra is a distinct dermal filler that stimulates collagen production, gradually reducing marionette lines.
Unlike traditional fillers, it works by enhancing the body’s natural collagen levels, leading to long-lasting, subtle enhancements.
Our dermatologists at Freyja Medical specialise in Sculptra injections, offering personalised treatments for natural-looking results and a youthful appearance.
Thread Lift
Thread lift is a minimally invasive procedure that effectively targets marionette lines by lifting and tightening the skin with dissolvable sutures.
This technique stimulates collagen production, improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles.
At Freyja Medical, our experienced dermatologists specialise in thread lifts for natural-looking rejuvenation of facial appearance.
What causes marionette lines?
Marionette lines, the vertical creases framing the mouth, are primarily attributed to aging. This process involves the natural loss of collagen and elastin in the skin.
These lines are particularly pronounced due to the downward pull of facial muscles over time, leading to a sagging appearance around the mouth area.
These lines are a common occurrence as we age, influenced by factors such as:
- Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can accelerate skin aging and the breakdown of collagen and elastin, leading to the development of marionette lines.
- Smoking: Smoking reduces blood flow to the skin and impairs collagen production, making smokers more prone to developing wrinkles and lines, including marionette lines.
- Repetitive Facial Expressions: Habitual facial expressions, such as frowning or squinting, can contribute to the formation of lines and wrinkles, including marionette lines, over time.
- Poor Skincare Habits: Neglecting proper skincare, including moisturising and protecting the skin from environmental damage, can exacerbate the development of marionette lines.
- Environmental Pollutants: Exposure to pollutants in the environment, such as air pollution and toxins, can increase oxidative stress in the skin, leading to accelerated aging and the formation of lines and wrinkles.
- Genetics: Genetic factors play a role in determining an individual’s predisposition to aging and the development of facial lines, including marionette lines.
- Hormonal Changes: Hormonal fluctuations, particularly during menopause in women, can affect skin health and contribute to the formation of marionette lines.
