Before And After Marionette Lines & Jowling Case 1019

ABOUT THIS PATIENT
A vibrant woman in her early 50s, this longtime Mabrie Facial Institute patient came to us in preparation for a milestone celebration. With a positive outlook and a full life, she embraced the confidence and wisdom that come with age. However, she began to notice signs of aging that didn’t reflect how youthful and energetic she felt—specifically, deepening marionette lines and mild sagging in the jowl area. These changes were creating shadows in her lower face and giving her a more tired or drawn appearance. Wanting to refresh her look in a natural, understated way, she turned to Dr. Mabrie and the team she had trusted for years.

MFI TREATMENT PLAN
Dr. Mabrie designed a custom non-surgical treatment plan using his signature Illumination 360°™ approach—a comprehensive, full-face rejuvenation strategy that addresses multiple facial zones in harmony to restore youthful balance and vibrancy.

To address her lower face concerns, Dr. Mabrie used hyaluronic acid-based fillers such as Restylane® and Restylane® Lyft. These products were expertly placed to restore volume loss, lift sagging skin, and soften the appearance of deep folds around the mouth. By targeting structural support areas, we were able to visibly reduce shadows and create a smoother, more contoured jawline

To ensure her results felt seamless and natural—not isolated to one area—Dr. Mabrie also treated supporting zones of the face. This included subtle enhancements to her under-eye hollows, midface, cheeks, nose, chin, and jawline. This holistic approach is the hallmark of the i360 method: every feature is considered in the context of the full face, so the end result is not just rejuvenated—but balanced, radiant, and harmonious.

THE OUTCOME
The transformation was subtle but impactful. Her marionette lines were softened, the jowling was lifted, and her lower face appeared firmer and more youthful. The added volume through the cheeks and midface restored gentle curves to her profile, while under-eye refinement helped her look more rested and bright. Most importantly, the results looked completely natural—she didn’t look different, just like the best, most refreshed version of herself. She left our office with a renewed sense of confidence, excited to celebrate her milestone feeling radiant, empowered, and entirely herself.
