The downturned corners of your mouth, even when you're not smiling, and the fact that you look particularly tired in photos may be due to marionette lines. Marionette lines form deep lines around the mouth, making your face appear sagging and older.

Today, I'll explain the causes of marionette wrinkles, dermatological treatments to improve them, and even home care methods!

 

1. Causes of marionette wrinkles

Marionette wrinkles are said to be caused by a complex interaction of various factors. Let me explain some of the causes.

 

1) Decreased skin elasticity

As we age, collagen and elastin decrease, which can cause skin elasticity to decrease, leading to sagging skin and the formation of marionette wrinkles.

 

2) Changes in facial bone structure

Also, as the facial bones get smaller and lose volume, the skin sags, which causes wrinkles.

 

3) Effect of gravity

Gravity is also a factor in the formation of marionette wrinkles. Over time, skin tissue can sag, deepening the wrinkles.

 

4) Dry skin

It is said that when the skin lacks moisture, the skin surface becomes rough and loses elasticity, creating an environment where wrinkles can easily form.

 

5) UV rays

UV rays are also said to be a factor in causing marionette wrinkles. Wrinkles can develop due to irritation from UV rays.

3. Marionette Wrinkle Home Care

Regular home care can help prevent marionette wrinkles from deepening. Here are some tips for managing them at home!

 

1) Skin moisture management

It is said that it is important to apply enough moisturizing cream or moisturizer on a regular basis because if the skin lacks moisture and becomes dry, it can make wrinkles look deeper.

2) Reduce use of muscles around the mouth

It's also recommended to limit the use of the muscles around the mouth, as frequent use can deepen wrinkles. Avoiding straws, which can make wrinkles more noticeable, is also said to help manage wrinkles.

 

3) Use sunscreen

It is said that it is important to thoroughly apply sunscreen around the mouth as well, as UV rays can cause marionette wrinkles.

4. Q&A

1) What is the difference between nasolabial folds and marionette wrinkles?

: Nasolabial folds are wrinkles that run from the side of the nose to the corners of the mouth, while marionette wrinkles mainly occur from the corners of the mouth toward the jawline.

 

2) Can losing weight make marionette wrinkles worse?

Rapid weight loss can cause a loss of fat around the cheeks and mouth, weakening the structures that support the skin. If elasticity isn't restored, marionette lines can become more prominent.
