Fillers for Marionette lines

I am thinking about this treatment but worry about the cost. How much is it ?

Oh how exciting!
I can't see any merit in putting up with something that bothers you, if it's easily fixed (hopefully!)

It's just regular maintenance to a lot of people nowadays.

missAdventure I never thought I would consider anything like this. I always thought it was for the vain and superficial.
Until I started to hate what I see in the mirror that is.

The practitioner I am booked in with is medically trained, and has lots of good ‘before and after’ photos.
I will let you know how I get on. Must admit I am thankful for masks as I will have some injection site marks for a couple of days! ?
I am on annual leave from work so hopefully any bruising etc will be gone before I return!

Excellent idea, I have fillers and Botox. Makes a world of difference and takes years off.
I took the advice of a close friend who looks so good and it’s subtle, so make sure it’s a good recommendation.

Perhaps ask on mumnet?
Younger women seem to be much more at ease with these treatments, while us older women screw our hats onto our lined old foreheads and refuse to consider it.

but you can't stop time...

and gravity CanadianGran!

A gottle of gear?

Yes! ??

Marionette lines are the grooves that develop around your nose to the outside of your lips, deepening as you age.

Flaxseed, it you can afford it, and the lines bother you, then go for it. I would ask around for a good reference to a clinic, and maybe ask for some before and after photos of previous work.

So many of us say we are not going to have anything done, and let nature take it's course, but some of us do end up with features that we really don't like. For me it is mid-cheek lines, from the inner corner of my eye to mid-cheek. They aren't quite proper eye-bags, but I'm afraid they will be in years to come! I would love laser tightening treatment, but I just can't justify spending the amount on myself. I do some face-yoga in the mornings to keep the muscles underneath stronger, but you can't stop time...

I hope it goes well! I haven't had fillers yet but do have botox on my forehead and, last time, had it around my mouth. So satisfied - my mouth is slightly fuller but it is so subtle.

Having seen that poor girl's 'trout' mouth after fillers, I vowed never to try anything.

Good luck, let us know what you think after it's done.

Go for it if you feel confident. Would never be for me though !

I wouldn’t but that’s me I think there is beauty in every line your face is lucky enough to have lived through and I ve seen too many look strange but if you have the money and the courage and want to it’s up to you

Well, some kind of filler worked very well for Gordon Ramsay.

He looked much better without the lines.

They are the lines that develop in older age, that run down from the sides of the mouth. Think of a ventriloquist’s dummy.

‘Lord Charles’ here with Ray Allen always comes to my mind!

These.

What are marionette lines? Apologies for the ignorance!

I’m almost 68y. I’d be too scared to mess about with fillers.
Good luck though!
Do let us know how you get on.
