Marionette Lines

Description

Marionette lines are a common problem for many people, especially those who have dry skin. These are the lines that form around the eyes when you smile. 

The name of this condition comes from the appearance of the wrinkles on the face that look like a puppet's strings.

The causes of Marionette Lines are often related to a person's lifestyle, repeated facial expressions and genetics. 

There are many treatments for Marionette Lines that do not require surgery. The most common treatments include injections of Botox or Dysport to relax the muscles in the area and fillers to plump up the skin and make it look more youthful. These treatments last anywhere from 3-6 months depending on how often they are done.
