I'm considering getting a Juvederm treatment for marionette lines. Will it effect my dimples?

Question

My medical cosmetic professional said for $900 Juvederm injections would erase the marionette lines and guaranteed the work would last at least one year. My trademark feature is natural dimples in each cheek. I don't want to use Juvederm if the treatment would "freeze" my dimples or make them disappear. Is this a risk? $900 may be a good price in Oklahoma City, but it's a big investment for me.

Juvederm (ultra or ultra plus) works well to soften the marionette crease.  Filler treatments do not affect muscle movements or facial expressions, so your dimples should not be "frozen" or changed.Good luck!

Martin Jugenburg, MD · Answer

Injecting filler into your marionette lines will not affect your dimples. There is no guarantee that the product will last a year as longevity varies between individuals. It may be worth while to look in to a few clinics to check prices - ensure you find an experienced injector. Hope this helps.

Juvederm is a very nice option for softening marionette lines. The product is a filler and will not "freeze" any part of your face. If it is not injected into your dimples it should not affect them in any way. Good luck!Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Daniel Yamini, MD, FACS · Answer

If injected properly, Juverderm in the Marionette lines should not have any effect on your dimples.  The results of Juvederm are instant so you can monitor the progress as your doctor is injecting and you can stop when the results are optimal.  Juvederm is also reversible, so if you do not like the results, it can be instantly rremoved.

Hi Susie,Juvederm  will not freeze your dimples.  Normally fillers will improve your marionette lines. In most areas that move you will get somewhere between 6-9 months of improvement. Be wary of any guarantees. Hope this helps
