Juvederm for deep wrinkles between the eyebrows
Juvederm can be used to correct deep frown lines (glabellar rhytids, elevens) between the brows. I think it is even more effective to have Botox done first and then 10 days later have Juvederm to correct any wrinkle that is left. Because the brow is not repetitively contracting following Botox, the Juvederm should last longer. The synergy between botox or dysport (neuromodulators) and fillers like juvederm, restylane, radiesse, or perlane allows better...

Juvederm for wrinkles between eyebrows
Yes, in my experience, Juvederm works well for correction of the so-called the "elevens" This is particulary good when you combine it with Botox to relax the lines while the Juvederm fills them in.

Deep wrinkles between eyebrows
Thanks for the question.
Juvederm can indeed be used to manage the deep wrinkles in the glabellar region. I would initially treat the area with a chemodenervation product such as Botox Cosmetic or Dyport, weakening the muscle groups and minimizing the wrinkle. Once this is accomplished, the injectable filler (Juvederm) can be used to manage any residual stigmata of wrinkling in this area. Additionally, the use of Botox in combination with the filler will prolong the effects of the...

Juvederm v. Botox
Thank you for your question.
In short, yes. Juvederm is FDA approved to treat any moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds. However, for certain lines Juvederm is not always the best option available.
In our San Francisco Bay Area practice we commonly treat the deep wrinkles between the eyebrows with either Botox or a combination of Botox and Juvederm. Botox works by relaxing wrinkles caused by activity of underlying muscles, which is the case for wrinkles between the brows...

Juvederm between the eyebrows
The flagella is the space between the eyebrows. Creases here can be dynamic - from muscle contraction, or static - etched into your skin. The dynamic component contributes more, so the best way to treat the lines is with botox. If botox stops the movement but does not get rid of the lines, then Juvederm is very effective.

Can Juvederm Be Used for Deep Wrinkles Between Eyebrows?
The best solution for deep wrinkles between eyebrows is neuromodulators (Botox or Dysport). Once that's done, wait a few weeks and see if the result is what you want. If some of the wrinkle still persists then you can use injectable fillers (juvederm, restylane, perlane, etc.), however, the risks of complications in that area is higher so make sure you're going to an experienced injector.

Juvederm and Botox are a good team
For eyebrow wrinkles. Botox relaxes the muscle that is the cause of the wrinkles. Juvederm fills the wrinkle.

Juvederm and Botox can be used for wrinkles between the eyebrows.
Both Botox and Juvederm are used in situations where a patient has deep wrinkles. Botox works by temporarily weakening the muscles that cause you to frown. These muscles are actually the culprits of causing the wrinkles. The Juvederm, in addition to the Botox, is a good option because Juvederm is a "filler," meaning it fills the void that is beneath the wrinkle.

Juvederm is sometimes useful for lines between the eyebrows.
Nine out of 10 times the best approach for deep lines between the eyebrows is either Botox or Dysport. Both act to relax the muscle action that causes the wrinkle. In that 10th individual the first best approach is still Botox or Dysport. I will treat the overactive muscle, wait 2 weeks and reassess. If the deep lines are still present then it is time for filler. Judicious use of the hyaluronic fillers works beautifully and lasts up to a year. This...

A combination of Botox and Juvederm is Best for Deep Glabellar Lines
In my experience, deep glabellar lines that are present even if you are not frowning will likely need BOTH botox and fillers. The good news is that they work synergistically together-- botox helps make the filler last longer!
Botox is much safer in this area-- it is FDA approved specifically for this indication. It is simple, easy, with minimum to no downtime. So I would suggest Botox first. Botox will address the "dynamic" aspect of the lines-- the fact that hyperactive...
