Will my Marionette Lines Lessen over Time After Facelift?

Marionette lines are not treated with facelifts alone.
They can be treated with multi-modal therapy of 1. “Lifting” with a “Lift &
Fill” Facelift, 2. plumping by “Filling”, and 3. “Resurfacing” with
Laserbrasion.

You are still early on in your recovery and there is a chance that your lines will improve. Give it some time.

Unfortunately, marionette lines rarely improve over time and actually may become more visible once the swelling is fully resolved.   They are difficult to treat with a facelift. I suggest discussing options with your surgeon. But it's best to wait a few months before contemplating doing anything else. Sometimes fat grafting or filler can augment the results of the facelift.

A facelift tightens the skin and muscles along the lower face and neck, which can improve marionette lines, but not significantly. You may notice a slight reduction in the prominence of these lines as you heal from surgery (final results won't be visible for about 3 months). However, the best way to correct marionette lines is with dermal fillers like Restylane® or with fat injections.

In general, a facelift works best for improving the appearance of sagging skin. Marionette lines will respond best to Perlane or Restylane. I would recommend speaking with your physician about this option. They will not dramatically improve over time following the facelift.
