Marionette line softening in Southport

Marionette lines run down from the corners of the mouth towards the chin, and as they deepen they can give the face a permanently downturned or sad look, even at rest. Filler softens the lines and supports the mouth corners. It is one of the more transformative options in our filler treatments for expression.

Natural Results You'll Love

Softens the lines
Filler smooths the creases running from the mouth corners to the chin, easing a downturned look.
Supporting the corners of the mouth gives a subtle lift, so your resting expression looks softer and happier.
Treatment brings the chin and mouth area back into harmony, often alongside gentle jaw or chin support.

Why marionette filler works

Marionette lines deepen as the lower face loses structure and the mouth corners begin to drop. Filler works in two ways here, softening the crease and rebuilding the support beneath the corner so it sits higher at rest. We often treat this area alongside the chin, because a stable chin gives the mouth corners something to lift against. The result is a face that looks a little less tired, not a different face.

Treatment time:

About 30 minutes

Downtime:

Minimal. Mild swelling for one to two days.

What to Expect After Your Treatment

Avoid touching or pressing the area for the rest of the day, skip strenuous exercise, alcohol and heat (saunas, sunbeds) for 24 to 48 hours, and sleep slightly elevated if you notice swelling. Mild tenderness or bruising settles within a few days. Full aftercare guidance is on our aftercare page.

I can’t recommend Rachel highly enough. This was my very first appointment with Rachel and it certainly won’t be my last, she made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. She is incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and takes the time to really listen and understand what you want to achieve. Rachel has a very natural approach and her attention to detail is amazing. I feel confident knowing I’m in such skilled hands, and the results have been exactly what I hoped for. Thank you, Rachel, for your care, expertise, and for always making the whole experience so positive. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anyone looking for a trusted and talented practitioner.

I recently had polynucleotide under-eye injections with Rachel, and I couldn’t be more pleased with both the experience and the results so far. From the moment I arrived, Rachel was incredibly welcoming, professional, and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the treatment thoroughly and made me feel completely comfortable and reassured throughout the entire process. The treatment itself was surprisingly pain-free, with minimal discomfort and very little downtime afterwards. I’ve already noticed a significant improvement in the appearance of my under-eye area - it looks brighter, more refreshed, and the fine lines have softened noticeably. As someone who works night shifts in the NHS, tired-looking eyes have always been a concern for me, so seeing such positive results already has been amazing. I’m excited to complete the rest of my treatment course and see the full benefits. I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone considering polynucleotide treatments. Her professionalism, expertise, and friendly approach make the whole experience exceptional ❤️

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

They form as the lower face loses volume and skin elasticity, so the tissue settles into lines from the mouth corners toward the chin. Loss of chin support makes them worse.
Yes, to a degree. Supporting the corners with filler gives a subtle lift so your resting expression looks softer. Deep-set cases may need a combined approach.
Usually 9 to 15 months. Because the mouth is a mobile area, results here can be slightly shorter than in still areas like the cheeks.
Often, yes. A stable chin gives the mouth corners something to lift against, so treating both can give a more natural, lasting result.
Absolutely. Filler softens the lines without affecting movement, so your smile and expressions stay completely natural.
We use numbing cream and most clients find it comfortable. You may feel some pressure as the filler is placed.
