Fillers · Marionette lines
Marionette lines filler
Marionette lines run from the corners of the mouth down towards the chin. When they mark, they give a sad look that has nothing to do with your mood. Hyaluronic acid lifts the floor of the line and supports the corner of the mouth, and the expression at rest changes.
It is an area where a little product does a lot, and where too much shows. At the consultation we look at where the line comes from: skin that has dropped, a mouth corner that has fallen, a chin that has lost support. Each cause asks for a different point.
The session takes 30 minutes. It costs €219 per millilitre. It lasts 9 to 15 months.
What changes with marionette lines filler
A medium-density hyaluronic acid gel placed in the floor of the lines that run from the corners of the mouth towards the chin, and at the mouth corner itself. The lines lift and the corner gets its support back.
Is it for you?
Lines that give a sad look at rest that has nothing to do with your mood. When the corner drops because the muscle pulls it, botulinum toxin does that job instead; often both, in separate sessions.
What happens in the session
Numbing cream, then the gel with a cannula in most cases. It is an area where a little product does a lot, and where too much shows. Thirty minutes.
What you'll see, and when
The same day; definitive at two weeks. It lasts 9 to 15 months.
After the treatment
Light swelling for 2 days, sometimes a small bruise. No gym, sauna or alcohol for 48 hours.
Why it looks natural
This is an area where a little product does a lot, and where too much shows. So we start with the cause: dropped skin, a fallen mouth corner and a chin without support each ask for a different point. Then we place a medium-density gel with a cannula, usually 1 millilitre for both sides. The sad look lifts; the mouth still moves like yours.
Honest answers
Will it show? The same day; definitive at two weeks. Light swelling for 2 days, sometimes a small bruise.
Does it hurt? Numbing cream first, then the gel with a cannula in most cases.
What if I don't like it? Hyaluronic acid dissolves with hyaluronidase (€150), fully or partly.
How we do it at Cosmo Clinic
We start with the cause: skin that has dropped, a fallen mouth corner or a chin that has lost support each ask for a different point. Often 1 millilitre covers both sides. When the mid-face is behind it, cheekbone filler comes first or alongside. €219 per millilitre. The consultation is free.

Frequently asked questions
Short answers to the questions we hear every day. Everything else belongs in the consultation.
Filler or botulinum toxin?
If the mouth corner drops because the muscle pulls it, botulinum toxin relaxes it and the corner lifts. If the line is marked at rest, it is filler. Often both, in separate sessions.
How long does it last?
Between 9 and 15 months. The area moves and the gel breaks down at that pace.
How much product is needed?
Often 1 millilitre for both sides. Deep lines may need more, or may need the chin first.
Can I have it if I have thin lips?
Yes. The areas are different. If you want, lip filler can be part of the same plan.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream and lidocaine in the gel. With a cannula, you feel pressure and little more.
Does it combine with cheekbone filler?
Yes. When the marionette line is a consequence of the mid-face dropping, restoring the cheekbones helps, in the same session or before.
What about recovery?
None. Light swelling for 2 days, a small bruise in some cases. No gym, sauna or alcohol for 48 hours.
