Marionetlinjer

Udviklingen af marionetlinjer skyldes en kombination af tabt volumen, tyngdekraft og aktiv muskulatur i den nederste del af ansigtet:

• Loss of volume in the midface: As the fat pads in the cheeks and temples shrink with age, the skin loses its lift. Gravity pulls the excess tissue downwards, creating pressure and a fold around the mouth and chin.
• Downward-pulling muscles: We have a strong muscle (the DAO muscle / depressor anguli oris) that pulls the corners of the mouth down when we express sadness or scepticism. Over the years, this muscle can become overactive and pull the corners of the mouth down permanently.
• Bone loss in the chin: The bone tissue in the lower jaw and chin gradually shrinks with age. As the chin's foundation gets smaller, the skin around the corners of the mouth collapses into folds.

To achieve the most natural and harmonious result, we rarely treat the marionette line as an isolated wrinkle. The treatment is always tailored to your face and typically involves one or more of the following methods:

1. Genopbygning af fundamentet (Hage og mundvige): Vi lægger en stabil, volumengivende filler lige under mundvigen og langs hagens sider. Dette fungerer som en mekanisk "støttepude", der fysisk skubber mundvigen op på plads og udfylder den dybe rende.

2. Det skjulte løft fra kinderne: Hvis dine marionetlinjer primært skyldes, at væv fra kinderne er sunket ned, starter vi ofte med at genskabe volumen på kindbenene eller i tindingerne. Ved at løfte midtansigtet trækkes huden blidt tilbage, hvilket letter trykket på den nederste del af ansigtet og mindsker linjerne markant.

3. Combination with Botox (the DAO muscle): If the corners of your mouth are pulled down strongly by your facial expressions, combining the filler with a small amount of Botox in the DAO muscle can be highly effective. It relaxes the muscle so the corners of your mouth naturally return to a neutral, happy position.
