Restoring Natural Balance to Lower Face Features

Marionette lines can quietly change the way your entire lower face reads, creating a downturned or fatigued expression that has nothing to do with how you actually feel. At INJX by NAT Aesthetics, marionette lines treatment is approached with precision and proportion, softening these lines in a way that looks genuinely refreshed and entirely natural.

Treating Marionette Lines With Filler and Neurotoxin

In some cases, marionette lines, Botox is incorporated alongside filler to relax the depressor anguli oris muscle, which actively pulls the mouth corners downward. Combining both approaches often delivers the most complete and lasting result.

Marionette Lines Filler FAQ

Is marionette lines filler painful?

A topical anesthetic is applied before treatment, and most fillers contain lidocaine for additional comfort. Most patients find the procedure very manageable with only mild pressure during placement.

Filler adds volume to soften the lines directly. Botox relaxes the muscle pulling the corners of the mouth downward. Combining both often delivers the most complete and natural-looking result.

Can marionette lines be fully eliminated with filler?

Filler significantly reduces the appearance of marionette lines but does not eliminate them entirely. The goal is meaningful softening that looks natural, not complete erasure. Your provider will set realistic expectations during the consultation.

How many syringes of filler are typically needed for marionette lines?

Most patients use between half a syringe and one full syringe per side, depending on line depth and anatomy. Your provider will recommend the appropriate amount during your consultation.

At what point should I consider adding Botox to my marionette lines treatment?

If the mouth corners are visibly turning downward at rest, adding Botox to relax the depressor muscle is often recommended alongside filler. Your provider will assess this during your consultation.
