I have been doing this for a couple of weeks. My marionette lines are now deeper and more pronounced. I’m an Occupational Therapist and have experience with KT for the upper extremities. I know that I’m applying it correctly. Any advice?

Sorry, I am confused. The video you are referring to is a stretch, but you are talking about tape application in your comment. The stretch can help to relax the triangularis muscle, which when tight, can pull the corners of the mouth down and contribute to the marionette lines. For the taping, did you try the combo with the marionette lines and the nasolabial lines? Maybe you need more support on that taping if you are only doing the marionette taping. You can also try the tech neck stretch, which helps to stretch the platysma muscle, which also pulls things downward on the face when it is tight. If there is more volume in the cheeks, that can be pushing the marionette lines deeper, so you may want to also try the cheek lift taping application as well along with the cheek droop application if there is quite a bit of puffiness in the cheek. Another exercise that can be beneficial for the marionette lines is the lower face reset. Link here for lower face rest: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6OrpHWpa61jfrs I hope this helps.
