Most performed treatment
The most popular treatment in cosmetic medicine is frown softening using Botox. The stern look that can result from strong frowning with resulting frown lines can be disfiguring.
Causes of frown lines
Each time the frown muscles tighten, vertical folds appear between the eyebrows and a horiontale above the nose. When the muscles relax, the lines initially disappear again. If the frown muscles are very strong or are tightened very often, or if the condition of the skin deteriorates, the lines in the skin may remain visible.
The frown defines the look
The result is a constant “angry” expression on the face. The annoying thing is that at such a time the face no longer expresses what you are feeling.
Informational consultation
The doctor will discuss your needs with you and estimate what causes your frown lines.
Treatment of frown lines
Usually, strong action of the frown muscles is a major cause of lines and Botox will be used to temporarily make the muscle less powerful. If the condition of the skin is also a factor, it may be useful to combine this with skin-firming injections with a filler.
