MARIONETTE Lines
These deep lines make a person look perpetually tired and older than they actually are.
Laugh lines, also known as nasolabial folds, are indented lines that extend from the edges of the nose to the outer regions of the mouth.
Marionette lines, also known as puppet lines, are the vertical lines that spread from the corners of the mouth downwards to the outer corners of the chin.
Both laugh lines and marionette lines are caused by sagging of face, repeated facial expressions, reduction of collagen and fat redistribution which are inevitable as part of aging process.
Treatments
Non-invasive

Thermage FLX
5G Thermage FLX 5th Gen system is a non-invasive radiofrequency (RF) therapy that can help smooth, tighten and contour skin for an overall younger-looking appearance.
HIFU
Ultrasound energy targeting on SMAS layer of the face, causing them to contract and subsequently tighten the skin. It also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, without causing harm to the surrounding tissues.
MINIMALLY INVASIVE
Dermal Filler
Placed directly along the folds to plump up the area, thus obscuring the prominence of the lines.
Ellansé
An innovative filler which can fill up the sunken area and stimulate own collagen simultaneously.
Threads
Fine sutures which are biocompatible and dissolvable. They are placed under the skin to tighten and lift the face up.
