That snarling, ticked-off look is produced by 3 little muscles on the bridge of the nose; The Corrugator muscle pair which pull the inner brows in and down (creating the "11 lines" on your low Forehead) and the Procerus muscles which creates the "Bunny Lines".
Botox is BY FAR the easiest and most artistic way to not only smooth these lines, but to lift the inner brows (giving your face a calmer, relaxed look). If you are not willing to have that simple procedure 2-3 times a year, you may want to consider having these muscles disrupted surgically. They can be reached either through a forehead lift OR by an upper lid lift (Blepharoplasty) incisions.
Good Luck.
