I would wait two weeks before assessing results, then return to your injector to talk about an alternative treatment. Filler could work if your 11s are permanently etched in your skin.
If you have very deep 11 lines in your glabella, then it can take a few cycles (12 to 18 months) of Botox treatment for the 11 lines to soften or clear. I usually recommend to my patients to be patient as their glabellar muscles weaken with the continued Botox treatment. For more impatient patients, resolution of the 11 lines can be hastened with a number of skin resurfacing or skin care product options in our practice. I do not typically recommend filler to the gabella because it can cause imbalances in glabella appearance.
I would not recommend filler for the glabella, as injecting filler in this area can be dangerous. Follow up with a board certified physician who is experienced performing Botox injections for the glabella. A plastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon, or dermatologist are each a great choice. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best of luck.
I would recommend treatment of the glabellar muscle group between the eyebrows with adequate dosing and then following up with your injector a couple of weeks later - dermal fillers could be placed at that time to further soften the 11-lines. Make sure you discuss the risks of filler injections in this particular area with your injector.
The best treatment for frown lines, glabellar lines or 11's is Botox to relax the muscles that create these lines. However, for some patients, some lines or dents persist. Superfical lines may be from the outer dead layer of skin being creased by the active mucsles. As the skin turns over (about 6 weeks), these lines improve. For those who still ahve dents, a little filler such as Juvederm or Restyane can help.
Some people with deep eleven lines can get improvement with Botox but not complete eradication. Fillers can sometimes help with this. Generally, I recommend having the Botox first to see how much better the lines get and then if needed, will add a filler. If it seems to be a recurrent issue, then there is no problem having Botox and a filler at the same time.
Botox is a great way to treat your "eleven" lines in the glabella area. However, if these lines are very deep, you may require filler such as Belotero or Restylane to be injected. It is best to wait two weeks to ensure the lines are completely frozen before the filler is placed since allows the filler to last longer. Please find an experienced cosmetic dermatologist for the best results.
I would treat the area with Botox first and wait to make sure the Botox will not solve the issue before turning to a filler. If Botox does not provide a good solution, fillers can be used to treat the lines.
Great question. You may need more Botox or possibly need supplementation with a filler in that area if the creases were too deep. Give it a bit of time and then see a board certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist to inquire about additional treatment.
I would recommend a neurotoxin first to paralyze the corrugator muscles in the area of the 11. If the correction is not complete, a filler is indicated. Hope this helps
To best treat the indentation it is necessary to know the cause of the indentation. If it is the result of trauma than a facial filler such as Restylane will work well. If the indentation is caused by your muscle then Botox may work better for your particular situation. Please consult a bo...
One of the potential side effects is ptosis. Iopidine drops sometimes help the situation. There is nothing more that you can do right now but the effects will take a few more weeks to resolve. Within three months you should be totally back to normal.
Botox for the muscle that brings the nose down is very close to the orbicularis oris muscle of the mouth.Thus the Botox has relaxed the muscle that tightens the mouth - the upper lid lengths, the red lip is less noticeable.This will disappear as the Botox wears off.A Plastic Surgeon can do a...
