Marionette Lines and Lips

At Alemi Facial Plastic Surgery, we offer a range of non-surgical treatments designed to rejuvenate the lower face, specifically targeting marionette lines and lips. Dr. Sean Alemi’s meticulous approach ensures that each treatment is tailored to enhance your natural beauty, providing results that are both effective and beautifully subtle.

Understanding Marionette Lines

Marionette lines, often referred to as puppet lines, are vertical wrinkles that extend from the corners of the mouth down to the chin. These lines, named after the strings that control a puppet's mouth, become more pronounced with age due to factors like loss of skin elasticity, volume depletion in the cheeks, and repetitive facial movements. Genetics, sun exposure, and lifestyle habits such as smoking can also contribute to the development of these wrinkles, which can give the face a tired or aged appearance.

Common Aesthetic Concerns for the Lower Face

Deep Marionette Lines: These lines can create a tired or aged look, disrupting facial harmony. Softening their appearance with targeted treatments can restore a refreshed and youthful look to the lower face.
Thin Lips: Lips tend to lose volume and definition over time, leading to a thinner, less defined appearance. Enhancing lip shape and volume through non-surgical methods can rejuvenate the lips, creating a more youthful and attractive contour.
Lip Asymmetry: Uneven lips can affect the balance of the face. Dr. Alemi’s non-surgical lip augmentation techniques aim to create symmetrical lips that harmonize with your overall facial features.

Non-Surgical Rejuvenation at Alemi Facial Plastic Surgery

Dr. Alemi offers several advanced non-surgical options to address marionette lines and enhance the lips, ensuring that each treatment is customized to achieve natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

Dermal Fillers

Dermal fillers containing hyaluronic acid are an ideal solution for adding volume to marionette lines and lips. By injecting fillers into the marionette lines, Dr. Alemi can smooth and soften these creases, restoring youthful contours to the lower face. For lips, fillers are used to enhance volume, definition, and symmetry, providing a fuller and more balanced lip shape.

Cheek and Jawline Support: Fillers can also be strategically placed to subtly lift the lower face, supporting the structure and minimizing the depth of marionette lines for a rejuvenated look.

Neuromodulators

Botox and other neuromodulators are highly effective in relaxing the muscles around the mouth, which can reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles and prevent deeper lines from forming. When used around the lips and mouth, these treatments help smooth fine lines, giving the lower face a softer and more youthful expression.

Lip Augmentation

Lip augmentation using hyaluronic acid fillers is a safe and effective way to add volume and contour to the lips. Dr. Alemi focuses on enhancing lip shape and creating natural-looking results that complement the overall facial structure. This treatment can address concerns such as thinning lips and lip asymmetry, delivering a more balanced and youthful smile.

Collagen Stimulators

Collagen stimulators like Sculptra are designed to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, improving skin elasticity and volume over time. When used in the marionette lines and lips, these treatments help restore firmness and resilience, enhancing facial contours and reducing the appearance of wrinkles in a natural way.

Real Patient Experience

"Two months ago, I had a facelift, neck lift, and lip lift with Dr. Alemi. I am beyond thrilled with my results and the quality of care I received from Dr. Alemi and his staff. I had gone on a few consultations with plastic surgeons in the New York area. Each time, I left feeling unsettled and unsure. The moment I met Dr. Alemi, I knew I found the surgeon to do my procedures. He listened to my concerns and went over in detail what he could do. He showed me pictures of patients with similar facial laxity so that I could get an idea of what improvements he had made. He was thorough, patient, and answered all my questions. The results are better than I could have ever imagined. The recovery was easy and uneventful. The office staff is delightful and easy to deal with. Before my surgery, I was very concerned about my lip lift scar. Well, two months out, the incision is completely healed, and there is no scar. I look like myself, only refreshed and 20 years younger! Dr. Alemi is an artist with exceptional skills. I am grateful he was my surgeon."
