Marionette lines. Would botox sort them out?

[kreecherlivesupstairs]

Despite being a generally happy person, I look like a miserable hag. I have those lines (which google informs me are marionette's) which run from the side of my mouth to my chin.
I am wondering whether it is worth looking round for someone to inject them with something [clueless] or if it is a waste of time.
I am 46, entirely without vanity and live in Belgium.
As you were so helpful on my moustache thread, I thought I'd give you another challenge.

I'm not sure 'entirely without vanity' and 'botox' belong in the same post

Perhaps consult a reputable plastic surgeon for a consultation?

I think that would be filler rather than botox. Botox is an eyes and forehead thing predominantly

Didn't Christine Hamillton have deep creases in the middle of her forehead? She had botox iirc.

OK, not entirely without vanity, but. I don't wear make up, I wash my face with soap and have short hair that doesn't need blow drying.
I just loathe the fact that I look miserable.
When we lived in Switzerland, the GP we used also offered minor surgery. I took DD to him about tonsilitis and he immediately thought I'd come for a consultation. How I wish I'd done it there.
So, fillers, not botox.

I've had fillers for these lines, can heartily recommend it. So far it's been 8 months and they are still very much doing their job so it lasts lots longer than botox albeit a little more pricey. Stopped me from looking miserable!

Fantastic TheLemur, can you tell me two things.
Does it hurt and a rough cost?
Many many thanks

It doesn't really hurt no. No more than a vaccination - more discomfort than pain. For a few days afterwards you feel like you have 2 itchy worms in your face but it doesn't look red or anything, no-one noticed!

I think it was £200 and something although I can't remember exactly. £245 maybe
