Several filler choices for marionette lines

David Hansen, MD answers: Artefill for marionette lines?

I have quite deep marionette lines. They drive me crazy. How many injections would I need and what is the best filler for me?

I was wanting ArteFill but is that the best choice? Actually, after seeing my photo I'd like a head transplant! Please help.

To fill your marionette lines, you have several choices which all work good.  Radiesse ($630/syringe) is probably the most common used and lasts about 1 yr.  Artefill ($1250/syringe) lasts the longest at 4-5 yrs but needs a skin test 1 month ahead of time to make sure you are not allergic to the collagen it is mixed in with.  Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane ($550/syringe) is fine to use and lasts about 6-9 months. What ever you use you will look good with but expect about 2 syringes injected over 2 sessions and they are very easy to get injected with. Good Luck.
