I'm in my mid-40s & had Botox twice in the last 2 years. I have very deep frown lines that seem permanent in certain lighting yet are undetectable in certain/good lighting. With the Botox, these deep frown lines diminish almost completely. I'm confused why doctors say Botox won't work on deep static lines when clearly it helped with my stubborn deep, permanent ones. Maybe mine aren't as deep as I thought, being that they're undetectable sometimes. I do take good care of my skin. Please advise.
Answer: Permanent lines Botox can soften permanent lines but fillers is really the best way to address them completely. Please see an injector for a physical assessment to determine which treatment is right for you.

Answer: How will I know if Botox will get rid of my wrinkles? Botox works by relaxing muscles that cause wrinkles. The muscles in our face are used to provide facial expression. When they contract they cause wrinkles of the overlying skin. After years of folding and unfolding the skin can develop thinning in the area of the wrinkle. This thinning increases with time and can result in a wrinkle that is present even while the muscle is relaxed. The use of Botox can help soften wrinkles, and prevent their formation. However, once a wrinkle is present at rest, further improvement of that line can be obtained by injecting filler. The filler works by adding volume directly within the crease and softening the wrinkle's appearance.Botox is a good product for wrinkle prevention/improvement, but cannot resolve all wrinkles. Some wrinkles would benefit from the use of Botox and placement of filler.

Answer: Don't worry be happy Botox works by stopping the muscles from moving that cause wrinkles. Even people with extremely deep wrinkles can get an improvement in their appearance with Botox, although the wrinkles may not completely go away. Botox has obviously worked for your wrinkles and that's a good thing! Keeping up on the Botox will prevent further deepening of the wrinkles. So its a win-win, you are treating the wrinkles you hafve while preventing them from getting worse!

Answer: Botox Softens Frown Lines As you have suspected, your frown lines are probably not as deep as you think. Botox generally doesn't erase permanent etched in lines but it can certainly soften them by relaxing underlying muscle fibers. If you are getting near complete improvement, then this is of course an optimal result. Regular treatment will help prevent further deepening of these lines over time.

Answer: Botox for deep frown lines Botox will help improve deep frown lines, but it may not always eliminate them completely. Usually, I recommend treating frown lines with Botox first and see how much better they get. If there is still some degree of a furrow left, a filler can be used for further improvement. You should feel good that your frown lines can be completely eliminated with Botox alone and I would recommend just continuing with that treatment for you.
