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: 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.

Answer: Botox treating the frown crease Good for you that you started treating your frown crease before the lines got too etched. It sounds like you are getting great results. Keep it up.If a person waits too long the Botox will stop the movement but there is still a fixed crease in the frown crease area. When this happens we need to also add a filler to soften the etched crease.The smart patient will start using the Botox before the crease gets fixed.Kudos to you for catching it in time. Keep up your regular treatments and you will be very happy as time goes on.
