Frown lines aka glabella frown lines are the deep creases between your eyebrows. These become more prominent when you frown, making you look angry or sad. Some people use these muscles when they are concentrating.
Over time, these lines may become obviously visible even when your forehead isn’t moving or when you are not frowning.
Muscle relaxing injections are the first line treatment for frown lines. Small injections using a very fine needle are performed to the frown area into the muscles which cause the frown. Most people could come during their lunch break during work and go back without their coworkers noticing anything.
If after stopping the movement in the frown line there is still a deep fold, dermal filler for the frown line can be considered at this stage. We would recommend several muscle relaxant treatments before considering dermal fillers in this area.
Muscle relaxing injections should be retreated when the movement is between 50%-80% back i.e. sometime from 3-4 months. Each patient is different so are their final results, the outcome depends on the patient’s metabolism, the dose, the placement etc.
We believe that a little bit of movement is not a bad thing! There are no lines when there’s 5% movement, just a small amount of movement. You don’t look older or worse in any way. In fact, you will look slightly more “natural” with more movement. We would like patients to move away from complete loss of movement as their goal.
