I have a very unappealing wrinkle/crease between my eyes (how did I get it if I'm not 18 years old yet?) and I was wondering what procedure would best help make it less visible. Would I have to get Botox, fillers, laser treatment or dermabrasion? What would the prices range?
Answer: Botox for the "11 Lines"
Botox will work beautifully to smooth out the wrinkles between your eyebrows. My patients refer to them as the "11 lines" because they look like the number 11. Botox will primarily correct the lines caused when you contract your muscles (dynamic wrinkles). If the lines are present at rest, you may require a combination of botox and dermal fillers to achieve the best result. After repeated treatments, you will require less botox to achieve optimum results. Consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to determine the best treatment option for you.

Hi Daisy. The first step would be Botox or Dysport. While horizontal lines between the eyes can be tougher to treat, you look like a good candidate. The procedure would need to be repeated every 3-4 months but hopefully it will take care of the issue you are concerned about. Good luck.

Answer: Botox is the BEST for lines between eyebrows
Although Botox is FDA approved for 18 years and older, most. 17 year olds can safely have it for their frown lines. FDA approval only means it was only tested on patients 18 years and older, not that it isn't safe. You are young enough that you may be able to permanently smooth that line after you've used Botox for over a year, if it breaks you of the habit of frowning/using that muscle.

Answer: Get an eye exam and have your refraction checked if you are squinting
As an ophthalmologist, I often see patients who have lines from excessive squinting to see clearly. While the botox will alleviate the lines temporarily. Addressing the underlying problem - a potential need for glasses for driving or using the computer - will result in a longer term solution.

Answer: Creases between eyes in young people
The crease between the eyes can develop from a young age. It is usually caused by excessive squinting. Some patients have very thin muscles and the squinting can easily form a prominent crease between their eyes. This is normally treated with 17-20 units of botulinum (e.g. Botox/Xeomin/Dysport (has different units)).
