I have been told fillers are too dangerous to perform in this area from a few nurse injectors. Years of Botox at large dose does nothing to help! I have deep lines even at rest. Should I try plastic surgeon instead?
Answer: Treating frown lines: What you need to know Thank you for your question and photo. Keep in mind that neuromodulators require a great deal of precision and expertise in both needle placement and dosing amount to achieve an optimal outcome. It is possible your injectors have not been experienced enough to produce the best possible result. It is also possible you might need a bit of filler in addition to the neuromodulator if your 11s are permanently etched and a bit more stubborn. Find a very experienced, board-certified injector for your treatment and my guess is you will see a better result - no surgery needed.

Answer: Review this area This area is considered very high risk and should only be done by a doctor who has sufficient experience in training for this area. Plastic surgeon or dermatologist is reasonable choice. Dermal fillers are the best choice to inject this particular area with botox.

Answer: Glabellar Lines / 11s / Frown Lines -- Neuromodulators (Botox/Dysport/Xeomin/Jeuveau), Fillers, Lasers, Microneedling/PRP "For glabellar lines (or frown lines / ""11"" lines), we inject Botox, Xeomin, or Dysport into the muscle, causing the muscle to weaken and improving the appearance of the lines. These work by binding to receptors that send nerve signals for muscles to contract. Since your body makes new receptors and neurotransmitters all the time, it needs to be maintained otherwise the wrinkles will slowly return as the muscle regains function over time. Neurotoxins take 2 to 4 weeks to start working and lasts for up to 6 months.

Answer: Botox and Dermal fillers Hi @DDH123! Neuromodulators like Dysport or Botox in combination with hyaluronic acid dermal fillers like Juvederm can be an effective treatment to smooth out the 11 lines. I recommend seeking treatments from expert injectors who have the skill and experience to precisely inject fillers into treatment areas and avoid risks and complications. Best of Luck, Dr. Nima!
